Which term allows you to enter, maintain and report on external data that come from integrations?

• A. Matrix Report
• B. Transposed Report
• C. Calculated Fields
• D. Custom Fields

Answer: (D)

Custom Fields let you store external data from integrations and report on it. They are user-defined fields attached to objects (like workers, suppliers, or transactions) that aren’t part of the standard data model, but you need to capture and maintain data coming from external systems. You can populate these fields through integrations, then use them in reports to analyze or share the external information alongside standard Workday data. This makes them the right choice when the goal is to enter, keep up-to-date, and report on data originating outside Workday. Matrix and Transposed Reports describe how data is laid out in the report (pivot-like structures) and don’t provide a storage mechanism for external data. Calculated Fields are derived values computed from existing fields rather than fields designed to hold external data from integrations.
