Note: if, when you click the link below, the page loads with “this page has no content” please choose the Dashboards dropdown menu at the top-right and scroll down to WSU Modernization Crosswalks – Finance.  Then use the various built-in crosswalks and filters to find the information you’re looking for.

Please read the note above before going to this OBIEE crosswalk, which is a great tool for translating legacy elements to Workday elements, which you can export to Excel for easy slicing and filtering.
