The story

The pain

As an HRIS admin, I find Workday's reporting on effective-dated data frustrating. When I run a report for a past date, it doesn't show workers who were in a specific support scope at that time but have since transferred. This makes it hard to provide accurate historical headcounts to HRBPs, and I'm left wondering if the Trended Workers data source is the only workaround.

I'm having issues with a report built on All Active and Terminated Workers DS. Admin users can easily recreate effective date headcounts using this DS but when HRBPs run this report with past effective date, they don't see workers who transferred outside of their support scope but were still in it as of this past effective date. For example: worker was in Finance sup org in June but transferred to IT sup org in July, when HRBP runs a report as of 30th June they cannot see this person in Finance sup org. Any idea how to overcome this? Is Trended Workers DS the only solution?
