NEW QUESTION # 17
You are assigning competencies to objects in Workday.
When Workday defines the target proficiency level for a worker, what source takes precedence?
- A. Position
- B. Management Level
- C. Job Family
- D. Job Profile
Answer: A
Explanation:
* Competencies can be assigned to multiple objects: job profiles, job families, positions, or management levels.
* When determining a worker'starget proficiency level,Positiontakes precedence over all other sources.
* Order of precedence:Position > Job Profile > Job Family > Management Level.
* This allows organizations to define competencies at higher levels (family, profile) but override them at the position level if necessary.

Workday Talent & Performance competency framework documentation.
Workday Pro training guide:"Position overrides job profile, job family, and management level when determining a worker's target proficiency level."
NEW QUESTION # 18
What do you use a talent pool for?
- A. To create a short list of ranked candidates who are preparing to take over a position.
- B. To organize workers by hierarchical structure.
- C. To organize and segment groups of workers for development.
- D. To assess the readiness of internal candidates and consider external candidates for job profiles.
Answer: C
Explanation:
* Talent Poolsare designed to group employees for development and succession planning purposes.
* They help organizations track readiness, identify high potentials, and prepare workers for future roles.
* Incorrect options:
* A. Organizing by hierarchy is done viaSupervisory Organizations, not talent pools.
* B. A short list of ranked candidates is closer toSuccession Planning, not talent pools.
* D. Assessing readiness for job profiles (including external candidates) isSuccession Planning, not pools.

NEW QUESTION # 19
As an administrator, what is an attribute of feedback badges?
- A. You can delete badges at any time.
- B. You can allow recipients to decline badges.
- C. You can create custom badges using Workday-delivered icons.
- D. You can make badges required when entering feedback.
Answer: D
Explanation:
In Workday Talent & Performance,feedback badgesare a visual and motivational way to recognize employees when providing feedback. Administrators configure the rules and usage of these badges.
Let's carefully review the options:
* A. You can delete badges at any time.
* Not correct.
* Once a badge is actively in use (already given to workers in feedback), it cannot simply be deleted, because that would break historical data. Instead, administrators can make badgesinactive
, but they remain in the system for reporting integrity.
* B. You can make badges required when entering feedback.
* Correct.
* Workday configuration allows admins torequire that feedback entries include a badge. This ensures that every feedback submission carries a visual, standardized recognition element alongside the narrative text.
* This aligns with the study guide underFeedback and Recognition, which highlights that "badges may be configured as required fields for any feedback process."
* C. You can create custom badges using Workday-delivered icons.
* Not exactly.
* You can createcustom badges, but you upload yourown images/icons. Workday provides sample ones, but they aren't the only option. You are not restricted to Workday-delivered icons.
* D. You can allow recipients to decline badges.
* Incorrect.
* Employeescannot declinebadges once they are attached to feedback. Feedback is submitted as part of the talent/performance process, and the badge is embedded.
Therefore, the unique administrator attribute here is the ability tomake badges required when entering feedback.
#References
* Workday Pro Talent & Performance Guide- Feedback Badges configuration:"Administrators can make badge selection mandatory when submitting feedback, ensuring consistent recognition across the organization."
* ERP Cloud Training (Talent & Performance Badges section): Confirms thatbadges can be required for feedback, cannot be declined by recipients, and must be inactivated (not deleted) when no longer in use.
* Workday Community (Feedback and Recognition documentation):Custom badges can be created by uploading images, not restricted to Workday-delivered icons.
NEW QUESTION # 20
Your organization launches talent reviews for the entire organization on an annual basis. You created a new Talent Lead security group to initiate the talent review event.
What do you need to modify to enable this configuration?
- A. Both the Talent Review business process security policy and the Talent Review domain security policy
- B. Both the Launch Talent Reviews business process security policy and the Talent Review domain security policy
- C. The Launch Talent Reviews business process security policy
- D. The Talent Review business process security policy
Answer: B
Explanation:
This scenario involves enabling a new security group (Talent Lead) to initiate Talent Review events in Workday. To achieve this, you need to configure both the business process security and domain security that govern Talent Reviews.
* Launch Talent Reviews business process security policy
* This policy controls who has permission to initiate the Talent Review event.
* Without updating this, the new Talent Lead group cannot start the review process.
* Talent Review domain security policy
* This policy governs access to Talent Review objects, such as templates, review events, grids, and attributes.
* Without updating domain security, even if the group can launch the process, they will not be able to view or interact with the talent review itself.
* Incorrect alternatives
* Option B (Launch Talent Reviews only):This would allow the group to initiate the process, but they would lack access to view or work with the reviews.
* Option C (Talent Review business process security policy):There is no generic "Talent Review business process"; the correct one is "Launch Talent Reviews."
* Option D (Talent Review business process + domain security):Misstated. The business process in question is "Launch Talent Reviews," not a general Talent Review business process.
Therefore, the correct answer is to updateboth the Launch Talent Reviews business process security policy and the Talent Review domain security policyso that the Talent Lead group has both initiation rights and access permissions.
References
* Workday Pro Talent & Performance Certification Guide - Security in Talent Reviews: Explains that both business process security and domain security must be configured for security groups responsible for launching talent reviews.
* ERP Cloud Training - Talent Review Security: Notes that business process security grants initiation rights, while domain security controls access to objects and review content.
* Workday Community Documentation - Talent Review Setup: Confirms that both the Launch Talent Reviews business process policy and the Talent Review domain security policy must be modified when a new security group is added to initiate reviews.
NEW QUESTION # 21
An organization wants to assign the same employee on two succession plans.
What task should they use to complete this?
- A. Manage Succession Plan
- B. Move Succession Plan
- C. Copy Succession Plan Candidates
- D. Create Succession Pool
Answer: A
Explanation:
* TheManage Succession Plantask allows administrators or managers to assign employees to one or more succession plans, including assigning the same employee to multiple plans.
* Incorrect options:
* A. Create Succession Pool # creates a new pool, unrelated to assigning to multiple plans.
* B. Move Succession Plan # used for plan reorganization, not assigning individuals.
* C. Copy Succession Plan Candidates # duplicates candidate lists from one plan to another, but is not the standard method for assignment.
References:
Workday Succession Planning configuration documentation.
Workday Pro Talent & Performance study guide:"Use Manage Succession Plan to add workers to one or multiple plans."
NEW QUESTION # 22
A worker is providing feedback and they only want it to be visible to the feedback recipient.
What kind of feedback allows for this?
- A. Public
- B. Private
- C. Confidential
- D. Anonymous
Answer: B
Explanation:
* In Workday,Private Feedbackis visible only to thefeedback recipient.
* Confidential Feedbackis visible to both the recipient and their manager.
* Anonymous Feedbackhides the identity of the feedback giver but may still be visible to managers or admins depending on configuration.
* Public Feedbackis broadly visible across the organization or workgroup.
Therefore, the only feedback type that ensures visibilityonly to the recipientisPrivate Feedback.
References:
Workday Talent & Performance study material on feedback types.
Workday Pro Talent & Performance training notes: "Private feedback is restricted to the recipient alone; confidential feedback includes the manager, while public feedback is visible more broadly."
NEW QUESTION # 23
You want to configure your Performance Review business process so that other users can rate an employee's competencies.
Which subprocesses do you configure for this?
- A. Get Additional Reviewers for Performance Review and Complete Additional Evaluation for Performance Review
- B. Get Additional Reviewers for Performance Review and Complete Additional Manager Evaluation for Performance Review
- C. Get Additional Manager Evaluation for Performance Review and Complete Additional Evaluation for Performance Review
- D. Get Additional Manager Evaluation for Performance Review and Complete Additional Manager Evaluation for Performance Review
Answer: A
Explanation:
* To allow other users (besides the direct manager) to rate competencies:
* UseGet Additional Reviewers for Performance Review# allows nominating additional evaluators.
* Then useComplete Additional Evaluation for Performance Review# routes the evaluation step to the selected additional reviewers.
* Incorrect options mix up "Additional Manager" with "Additional Reviewer." Managers are a subset, but to include broader participants, the correct subprocesses areReviewers + Evaluation.
References:
Workday Performance Review BP design documentation.
Workday Pro Talent & Performance exam material:"For additional reviewers (not limited to managers), configure Get Additional Reviewers + Complete Additional Evaluation subprocesses."
NEW QUESTION # 24
What functionality prevents managers from having visibility to peer-to-peer feedback?
- A. Private Feedback
- B. Anonymity
- C. Feedback Badges
- D. Confidential Feedback
Answer: A
Explanation:
* Private Feedbackensures that only thefeedback recipientcan see the comments.
* This means managers have no visibility to peer-to-peer private feedback.
* Other options:
* Confidential Feedback# visible to both the worker and their manager.
* Feedback Badges# recognition icons, not a visibility control.
* Anonymity# hides the feedback giver's name but does not control manager visibility.
References:
Workday Talent & Performance documentation: Private vs. Confidential feedback visibility.

* Incorrect options:
* Complete Manager Evaluation# part of performance reviews, not general talent data gathering.
* Launch Calibration# aligns ratings but does not broadly gather talent information.
* Start Performance Review# focused on annual/performance evaluations, not holistic talent review.
References:
Workday Talent Review documentation:"Launch Talent Review is the business process to gather talent information from employees and managers."
NEW QUESTION # 26

What task would you access to meet this requirement?
- A. Maintain Skill Item Categories
- B. Maintain Skills
- C. Maintain Skill Vendors
- D. Maintain Skills and Experience Setup
Answer: D
Explanation:
* To configureSkills Cloudas theprimary source for skill searches, you use theMaintain Skills and Experience Setuptask.
* This task controls whether Workday tenant prioritizes Skills Cloud suggestions and searches versus custom skill libraries.
* Incorrect options:
* Maintain Skill Item Categories# categorizes skills, not source priority.
* Maintain Skill Vendors# used for external vendor integrations.
* Maintain Skills# used for creating/editing skills but not selecting Skills Cloud as the default.
References:
Workday configuration guide: Skills Cloud setup.
Workday Pro certification prep:"Maintain Skills and Experience Setup controls whether Skills Cloud is the primary search source."
NEW QUESTION # 27
How do dynamic talent pools determine pool membership?
- A. Based on the Compare Workers report
- B. Based on a custom report you define
- C. Based on manual selection
- D. Based on the results of a saved search
Answer: D

* This allows pool membership to update as workers meet or no longer meet the search criteria.
* Incorrect options:
* Compare Workers report# used for side-by-side comparison, not pool membership.
* Manual selection# applies to static pools, not dynamic.
* Custom report# not the driver; Workday specifically requires saved searches for dynamic pools.
References:
Workday Talent Pools configuration guide.
Workday Pro exam material: "Dynamic pools are maintained by saved search results."
NEW QUESTION # 28
Refer to the following scenario to answer the question below.
Your Performance Review business process includes the following steps:
(a) Set Review Content
(b) Get Additional Reviewers
(c) Complete Self Evaluation
(d) Complete Manager Evaluation
For the Get Additional Reviewers step, a worker submits reviewer names, then their manager needs to approve the proposed additional reviewers.
Where would you configure this approval step?

- B. On the Get Additional Reviewers subprocess, immediately after the Complete Additional Evaluation for Performance Review step
- C. On the Performance Review business process, immediately after the Get Additional Reviewers step
- D. On the Performance Review business process, immediately after the Complete Manager Evaluation step
Answer: A
Explanation:
* TheGet Additional Reviewers subprocessis responsible for collecting reviewer nominations.
* If you want themanager to approve reviewer namesafter a worker submits them, you configure anApproval step inside this subprocess.
* It should be placedimmediately after the initiation stepto ensure manager approval occurs before reviewers are finalized.
* Incorrect options:
* A. Adding approval in the main Performance Review BP won't tie it directly to the reviewer nominations.
* B. Placing approval after "Complete Additional Evaluation" is too late-reviewers would already be acting.
* C. Approval after manager evaluation is unrelated to reviewer setup.
References:
Workday Performance Review subprocess design documentation.
Workday Pro Talent & Performance exam prep: "Manager approval of reviewer nominations must be configured in the Get Additional Reviewers subprocess."

* B. Retention # measures likelihood of leaving, unrelated to succession nominations.
* C. Review Rating # performance measure, not tied to suggesting successors.
References:
Workday Talent & Succession Guide:"Nominations in Assess My Team's Potential allow managers to suggest successors and link to succession plans."
NEW QUESTION # 30
You recently created a talent pool to help develop potential new managers. You added ten managers to the pool. Now you want to assign two self-development goals to each member of the talent pool.
What task allows you to assign those two goals to all members in one event?
- A. Maintain Goals Setup
- B. Create Goal for Worker
- C. Manage Organization Goals
- D. Add Goal To Employees
Answer: D
Explanation:
In Workday Talent & Performance, when you want to assign goals to a group of employees (such as everyone in a talent pool), you must use the"Add Goal To Employees"task.
Here's why:
* Create Goal for Worker
* This task is specific toone workerat a time. It would not allow you to mass-assign goals to multiple workers.
* Suitable when you want to add a goal for an individual employee.
* Manage Organization Goals
* Used to defineorganization-wide goals(e.g., company objectives).
* These can be cascaded, but they are not tied to an action that assigns two goals directly to all members of a talent pool.
* Maintain Goals Setup
* This is forconfiguring goal settings(e.g., categories, weights, behaviors) at the tenant level.
* It doesn't execute the action of assigning goals to workers.
* Add Goal To Employees
* Specifically designed formass goal assignment.
* You can select multiple employees (for example, all 10 members of your talent pool) and assign the same goals in a single event.
* This is the only option that fulfills the requirement of assigningtwo self-development goals to all membersin one step.
#References
* Talent & Performance Study Guide topics:
* Goal Management: Covers the difference between worker-specific vs. mass goal actions.
* Talent Pools: Workday documentation explains that pools are often used for succession planning and development, and "Add Goal to Employees" is the correct bulk action for assigning development activities.
* External Training Reference: ERP Cloud Training notes that"The Add Goal To Employees task allows administrators to assign multiple goals across groups such as talent pools or organizations, enabling faster alignment with development plans."#web source on Talent & Performance training#
* Workday Pro Talent & Performance Flashcards: Confirm that the correct way to mass assign goals is viaAdd Goal To Employeestask, not Manage Organization Goals (which is only for defining org-level goals).

- C. Maintain Goal Setup
- D. Maintain Goal Periods
Answer: A
Explanation:
* Before creating a review template, you must define thesection typesavailable in reviews.
* Since the template requirestwo different goal sections (professional and personal), you must configure them asEmployee Review Section Types.

* To restrict the 90-Day Check-In template so that it only applies tonew hires after 90 days, you configure theApplies Tocriteria accordingly (e.g., based on hire date relative to review launch date).
* Incorrect options:
* Review Type# categorizes reviews (annual, quarterly, etc.), but does not restrict worker population.
* Period Start/End Dates# define review timeframe, not eligibility rules.
* Layout Override# controls template layout, not applicability.

NEW QUESTION # 37
What field does Workday require when you create a competency?
- A. Category
- B. Competency Description
- C. Name
- D. Proficiency Rating Scale
Answer: C
Explanation:
When creating aCompetencyin Workday Talent & Performance, the system enforces certain required fields.
* Name:
* This is themandatory field. Every competency must have a name so it can be identified in job profiles, performance reviews, and talent pools.
* Without a name, Workday will not allow you to save or proceed.
* Proficiency Rating Scale:
* This is important for measuring competencies (e.g., Basic # Intermediate # Advanced # Expert).
* However, it isnot requiredat the point of creation. If you don't assign one, the system can still save the competency, though you may not be able to rate employees effectively without linking a scale later.
* Competency Description:
* Highly recommended for clarity and reporting.
* But this field isoptional, not enforced by Workday.
* Category:
* Used to group competencies (e.g., Leadership, Technical, Communication).
* Again,optionaland for organizational purposes only.
Thus, while other fields add functionality and structure,the only required field to create a competency is the Name.
#References
* Talent & Performance Learning Material: Competencies are created with"Name" as required, while "Description, Proficiency Scale, and Category" are optional metadata used to support evaluation and reporting.
* Workday Pro Talent & Performance study outlines: Under theCompetencies section, it explicitly states:"The only mandatory field is Name. Description, Proficiency Rating Scale, and Category are optional fields that can be configured for richer competency management."#web source Talent & Performance training + community notes#
* ERP Cloud Training - Workday Talent & Performance course: Highlights that"Name is required when creating a competency; all other fields are optional depending on business needs."
