There are several ways to get the help you need.

• Workday Support Desk - Just like the ITS Service Desk, you can submit questions to Finance or Human Resources, or any feature request at lmu.edu/workdaysupport. 
• Workshop Recordings - You can find Expense Reports, Purchasing, LMU Credit Cards, and more here. Check back for future recordings. 
• Quick Reference Guides - Find step-by-step instructions on numerous topics in the Workday Support app (the life buoy icon on the Workday dashboard).
• Workday Assistant - This new automated chatbot can answer many of your basic questions, and is an easy option to find what you’re searching for. For ex. if you want to view your existing requisitions, simply type “purchase” into the Workday Assistant search field, and it will provide a list of all recent purchases.
