• Multi-Entity Mapping: Each Ramp entity can be associated with a specific Workday company, supporting complex multi-entity accounting structures.
• Workday Work Tags: The integration supports core work tags such as spend category, cost center, supplier, location, project, and custom tags, allowing full alignment with your Workday setup.
• Real-Time Field Updates: Any changes to accounting fields in Workday are reflected in Ramp within approximately 10 minutes.
• Custom Journal Source Configuration: Set a custom journal source in Ramp (e.g., “Ramp Journal”) to track Ramp transactions in Workday.
• Direct Receipt Syncing: Receipts from transactions are synced to Workday as attachments, making them directly accessible in Workday’s records.
• Intercompany Transaction Support: Separate the liability and expense sides of transactions across Workday companies as needed.
• Multi-Currency and Exchange Rate Support: Ramp supports multi-currency transactions, with functional currency settings in Workday providing accurate conversion for each transaction.

FAQs

What happens if Workday is down during sync?

Transactions will show a “sync failed” status in Ramp, allowing you to retry once Workday is back online.

Can we set up rules by entity?

Ramp supports restricting work tag visibility by entity, though rule creation by entity for coding requirements is not yet available.

What accounting date options are available?

The default accounting date options are transaction date or clearing date.

How are intercompany transactions handled?

You can separate the liability and expense sides across different Workday companies, with the liability anchored in the entity’s designated Workday company.

Is multi-currency supported?

Yes, Ramp’s multi-currency capabilities ensure transactions are recorded accurately, with currency conversions matching Workday’s functional currency. For setups where the functional currency in Workday differs from both the original transaction and issuing currency, there may be a foreign exchange (FX) impact. Currently, customers must manually account for this FX impact. Ramp is exploring options for automating this process in the future through journal syncing for statement payments.
