Read time: 12 minutes
Hey, there! It’s almost that time of year again in the Workday world! The biannual…
✨ Workday feature release ✨
Are you feeling ready for 2025R1?! Or more importantly, is your tenant ready?
Today’s newsletter is dedicated to helping you get your tenant 100% prepped and ready to go for the upcoming release 💪
We’ll walk through everything you need to know to get your tenant in tip-top shape to usher in Workday’s next iteration.
Let’s get right into it…
Prepping your tenant for the release…
Before, during, and after each biannual Workday release, we highly recommend you complete Workday’s Feature Release Checklist.
This checklist consists of about a dozen WD-delivered audit reports to help you identify and resolve critical errors throughout your tenant, and, to compare your tenants throughout release testing.
Why bother with any of this, you ask?
Once release features and fixes are delivered, unresolved or undocumented errors in your tenant make it difficult to pinpoint which errors are due to pre-existing issues vs. new release updates.

Plus, when you align these audits to the biannual release, you can sleep easy knowing your tenant is thoroughly tidied at least twice a year!
Now that’s how you maintain a #wellbuiltworkday 😍
🔥 Here’s the truth…
Audits like this tend to get skipped and overlooked because they’re proactive rather than reactive. Fixing the leak in your roof never feels as urgent as mopping up a flooded basement, right? But it sure is way less stressful, costly, etc. in the end!
The reality is, keeping your Workday tenant well built requires proactivity.
Skipping the Feature Release Checklist is like ignoring the cracks in your ceiling and hoping it doesn’t rain too much 😳
