This message does not apply for Oregon Department of Transportation, Oregon State Hospital and parts of Department of Corrections that do not use Workday Payroll and Time Tracking.

Good afternoon,

This is a notice intended for agency leadership, human resources, and payroll partners to inform you of an upcoming change to mid-month payroll processing. DAS Workday Payroll will be stopping the current mid-month time entry auto approval process on the Aug. 11, 2025, payroll deadline paid Aug. 15, 2025. This will continue for all mid-month payroll deadlines going forward.

In summary, time entered by employees must be submitted by the employee and approved by their manager by the mid-month payroll deadline, for that time entry to be paid out on the mid-month pay day.
Please refer to the attached "Stop Time Entry Auto Approve Leadership Talking Points<https://wd5.myworkday.com/oregon/email-universal/inst/21037$38903/rel-task/2998$33471.htmld>" document for more information. Also attached are employee FAQ<https://wd5.myworkday.com/oregon/email-universal/inst/21037$38892/rel-task/2998$33471.htmld> and manager FAQ<https://wd5.myworkday.com/oregon/email-universal/inst/21037$38883/rel-task/2998$33471.htmld> documents that will be shared in Workday Announcements early next week.

We encourage you as leaders in your agency to share the FAQ documents through your internal communication networks and follow up with your employees on this change.

Please create a Workday Help Case if you have any follow up questions or concerns regarding this information.

Regards,

DAS Chief Human Resource Office
