some countries don't have even eTES, so it can be worse

They still used the telephone based system?

ETES replacement is in scope for the Finance Transformation - so it is on the horizon

they probably fax their weekly hours..

no, we mail them weekly

Nicole, can you say more about eTes plans? When? What will the new system look like? What's different? etc.

Please let it have mobile access

Agree!

@LisaAnneBraun It's part of the SAP stack of updated tools for C1 - don't know off-hand about mobile capability

Nicole, what is C1? And from what you've seen, is this SAP capability easier to use/better than eTes? Or just better integrated into our financial systems?

@LisaAnneBraun Sorry, C1 = Finance Transformation. Will be more user friendly and also provide rules/integration to support new system.

and what could be the benefits of accessing it via mobile :)

The mobile capabilities are so that as an employee you can access Workday from any device, any place, and any time. This will be an improvement

Pretty much all functionality available via mobile? That would be great.

We are currently investigating what functionality we want to "turn on" come March. We will be coming back to employees on this

@C_Blendu how do you decide what to turn on?

I was going to ask something similar, since Cindy said analytical capabilities will be available.

I'd guess analytics would be a downstream thing, but #workday would clearly be an aggregation point.

In Phase 1 we will not be fully leveraging Workday's capabilities. Reports are only as good the data feeding it and we rely on many systems beyond Workday for key data / metrics. Plans are in place for more integrated, std reporting to aid better analytics

HR is also an area where we as employees have not had a good overview over processes etc. so bringing this single point tool in place is awesome

or will Workday take over the IDPs that are currently mostly documents

We will be using Workday for perf mgmt starting with FY16 launched in May / June. Some level of career development will be rolled out then, but this is done very differently across CSC and work is still underway on the best approach

@C_Blendu will workday be replacing GPARS and performance center?

Sounds like she is running lots of event for internal employees

Good question. If I got this right, she said we are Workday's only systems integrator partner who is using Workday. Not sure what to make of that, except it gives us good positioning for product influence.

I am not sure, but happy to follow-up. There are definitely larger implementations, e.g., HP, Goldman, AstraZeneca, United Technologies, but I would still imagine we are in the top quartile of size
