Free Practice Questions for Workday Workday-Pro-HCM-Reporting Exam

To locate the correct fields and data sources for a custom report, Workday provides theBusiness Object Details report. This report displays all available fields, relationships, and related business objects that can be included in reporting. It ensures report writers can confirm which fields (e.g., Learning Content, Ratings, Popularity) are accessible for use.

From the Workday Reporting documentation:

“The report data source provides the view into the primary business object. This object gives you access to class report fields as well as links to related business objects.”

“The Business Object Details report is used to view which fields are available for reporting.”

Therefore, the correct answer isB. Run the Business Object Details report.

Enabling a report as a worklet and assigning it to a dashboard does not automatically make it visible. The Recruiting dashboard (or any dashboard in Workday) must beconfigured to include the workletexplicitly. This is a common oversight—report designers assume that enabling a report as a worklet is sufficient, but the dashboard itself must be updated in configuration to display that worklet tile.

From the Workday reporting materials:“Dashboards provide an interface to view multiple worklets. Even if a report is enabled as a worklet, the dashboard configuration determines which worklets are visible to end users.”

Other options are less relevant: exceeding 100 rows only impacts loading performance, not visibility; security issues would typically block data, not hide the worklet entirely; and required setup applies to whether the worklet is optional or required, but it must still be added to the dashboard.

Thus, the correct reason isB. You need to configure the Recruiting dashboard to include the worklet.

TheCustom Report Exception Audit reportidentifies errors in custom reports, such as missing security access. If a new report owner does not have access to one or more fields on the report, it will trigger acritical error.

From the Workday Reporting documentation:

“The Custom Report Exception Audit report identifies issues such as missing field access when ownership of a report is transferred.”

Therefore, the correct answer isA. The HR Analyst does not have access to all of the fields on the report.

TheLookup Related Valuefunction retrieves a value from a related business object. Since Compensation Group is not stored directly on the Worker object but instead through theJob Profilebusiness object, this function lets you traverse the relationship to return the related field into your report.

From Workday Reporting documentation:

“Lookup Related Value – Returns a field from a related business object. Use this to bring data from associated objects into a report when the field is not directly available on the primary object.”

Therefore, the correct answer isC. Lookup Related Value.

If a recruiter sees an empty dashboard tile, the most likely cause isconstrained security access. Even though the dashboard is properly configured and the worklet is enabled, Workday’s security framework ensures that report results vary by user depending on their role and assigned constraints.

From the Workday Reporting binder:“Report results differ between users if security constraints apply. Constrained security groups grant access only to a subset of data… Unconstrained security groups grant users access to all target instances of a securable item.”.

In this scenario, the recruiter likely has constrained access to only their supervisory organization or region. As a result, the “Top New Applications by Job Profile” report returns no records in the worklet tile.

Other options are less likely: if the recruiter lacked access to the report entirely, the tile would not appear; required vs. optional dashboard configuration would not impact existing data visibility; and domain-level security applies to report access, not data filtering.

Therefore, the correct answer isC. The recruiter has constrained access to the report's data source or data source filter.
