The Workday 2023R1 Object Transporter feature update provides enhancements and new capabilities that streamline the process of moving objects between Workday tenants. With the release of Object Transporter 2.0, you now have the ability to select specific objects to include in your tenant-to-tenant object transport, as well as the ability to schedule object transports. This article provides an overview of the Workday 2023R1 Object Transporter feature update and what you need to know.
What is the Workday Object Transporter Feature?
The Workday Object Transporter feature is a tool that enables organizations to rapidly move objects between Workday tenants, ensuring process consistency and compliance across different environments. It provides an easy-to-use point-and-click interface for selecting particular objects, such as configuration items and custom fields, to move from one tenant to another. It eliminates the need for extra manual data entry and rework when transferring custom objects between Workday instances. The Workday Object Transporter feature contains robust security measures to help ensure data integrity and protect sensitive information during the transfer process. Additionally, the feature integrates with Workday Security to ensure that only authorized personnel have access to the objects being transported. The Workday Object Transporter also provides notifications to help users stay informed of the progress of their activities.
What's New In Object Transporter 2.0?
With the release of Object Transporter 2.0, users now have the ability to select specific objects to include in their tenant-to-tenant object transport. This allows organizations to move only the objects they need and avoid overwriting valuable data in their other Workday tenants. Additionally, this update introduces new object transport scheduling capabilities. Now users can schedule transports to occur at intervals that best fit their organization's needs, such as daily, weekly, or monthly transports. This helps streamline the object transport process even further, allowing organizations to more easily keep their objects up-to-date across multiple Workday tenants. The Workday Object Transporter 2.0 update also includes a number of other new features and enhancements, such as support for custom objects, improved reporting, and the ability to move configurable security objects. These features and enhancements help organizations ensure that their Workday environment remains up-to-date and in compliance with organizational policies.

Additionally, organizations should ensure that their security and compliance processes are properly set up in order to benefit from the improved object transport capabilities.

This includes evaluating their current process to determine which objects should be included in transports and when to schedule transports.
