You transferred ownership of your report to an HR Analyst. Then, you run the Custom Report Exception Audit report, and a critical error appears next to the report you just transferred.
Why could this be?
A.
The HR Analyst is not in the same location as you are.
B.
The HR Analyst does not have access to all of the fields on the report.
When ownership of a custom report is transferred in Workday, the system immediately evaluates whether the new report owner hasfull security accessto all components of the report. This includes access to thedata source,all report fields,calculated fields, and anysecured domainsreferenced by the report. If the new owner lacks access to even one secured field or domain, the report becomes invalid for that owner.
TheCustom Report Exception Auditreport is specifically designed to identify these types of issues. Acritical errorappears when the report owner does not meet the minimum security requirements to maintain or run the report.
From the Workday HCM Reporting documentation:
“When transferring ownership of a custom report, the new owner must have access to all fields and data sources used in the report. If access is missing, the Custom Report Exception Audit will flag the report with an error.”
“Critical errors indicate security or configuration issues that must be resolved for the report to function correctly.”
The other options are incorrect because location has no impact on report ownership, prompts are supported in reports, and sharing controls visibility—not ownership validity.
