Award Task Notification in Workday FAQs
Since the inception of the Award Task Notifications in Workday we have put together a few common FAQs. In addition, OSP has already added the Grant Manager to all active awards too, so they will receive the notifications and can assist the PI(s) in uploading the required reports.  
FAQs
Q:  Can the Grant Manager assigned to the award also get notifications?
A: Yes, OSP has updated all Award Task Reminders to include the PI (worktag owner) and Grant Manager (dept. grant administrator) to be notified.
 
Q:  If I upload my Progress/Final Report in Workday, do I still need to send the report to the Sponsor?
A: Yes, Workday is not a system to system portal so the PI and/or Grant Manager will need to submit their required Report to the Sponsor and then upload it into Workday.
 
Q:  I already submitted my report to the sponsor, why am I being notified again?
A: Until the Report is uploaded in Workday, the system doesn't recognize the task as being completed. Once the report is uploaded, the weekly late notifications will stop.  
  
Q: Why am I getting this notice the sponsor said I do not have to do reports for this project?
A: You are receiving notification of reports since the award document indicates there is a report(s) required. Written documentation from the sponsor changing the terms is required in order to change the reporting requirements outlined in the award document.
 
Q: Can I opt-out of getting these notices?  
A: Since Workday turned on this feature, it is a notification function which shows up under the bell icon in Workday, there is no opt-out. However, in order to receive automatic emails for due or upcoming tasks, you must  change your email notification preferences.
