Your client wants to group job profiles by departments (such as Human Resources, Accounting, Supply Chain). What field should the client use when creating a job profile?
The correct answer is A – Job Family/Job Family Group.
In Workday, Job Families and Job Family Groups are used to organize Job Profiles into logical categories for reporting, analysis, and security. This structure helps organizations group related roles, such as “HR Generalist” and “HR Business Partner” under the Human Resources Job Family, and all HR-related families under the Corporate Services Job Family Group.
When creating or editing a Job Profile, assigning a Job Family allows Workday to automatically associate it with the corresponding Job Family Group. These relationships are vital for talent management, compensation structures, and reporting purposes (for example, grouping compensation grades by department).
