Transcript for "Learn how Workday Extend helps global sportswear pioneer 'On' run faster":
Good morning, everybody. Good morning, Bence. How are you today? Hello. Hello, Michael. Good morning, everybody. I'm good. Doing good. How about you? I'm great. As you can see, I'm wearing my wonderful On On running top. I Yeah. I've been a bit better than me. My logo is smaller, actually, so point to you. Yes. I can't say I'm just back from a run that that would be a lie, but it does feel like the one of the top run. So so so, running is the theme of today, and I look forward to to discussing. But, let's just start with with the usual, introduction. So welcome, everybody. Thank you for joining, today's webinar, looking forward series, and we will be speaking about how On Running is running faster thanks to Workday Extend. And to anybody who's who's watching this as as a recording, welcome to you also, and I hope everybody enjoys. We are discussing a a Workday product today. We are discussing Workday Extend. So like like any presentation, we would just like to draw your attention to the the safe harbor product statement. We will show, features today. Most of of the features are available, but we will allude to to features that are potentially On our road map. And we just want to make sure that you make your purchasing decisions based off, features that are available today. So with that out of the way so, everybody will receive a a copy of the recording within twenty four hours. We encourage you to join in the q and a at the end, and also, I hope you will fill out the survey at the end of the of the webinar today. With no further ado, once again, welcome. So my name is Michael O'Callaghan. I'm a Workday extend product sales specialist. I've been with Workday since 2018, and I I I just love working with customers. And today, I have a really great customer to work work with. Bence Nagy is a Workday Extend specialist working for On Running, and, we're gonna learn a lot about Bence this morning. And, it it it it's it's it's great to understand the journey of of Workday Extend professionals. So Workday Extend, we like to think that it provides three times innovation. Workday builds innovative solutions for our customers, and our partners develop innovative solutions for you. All of this being developed on the Extend platform. But, of course, our customers with Extend have the ability to also innovate to create solutions tailored and specific to your needs. I like to simplify extend as a a a solution that helps customers tailor Workday to their, exact requirements, sometimes simplifying, modules within Workday, and sometimes just adding and innovating to create a new experience. This could be based off legal work requirements, could be based on industry specific require requirements. There could be many, many reasons why. And on running will speak to us today about tailoring, simplifying, and innovating with extend. Workday extend allows you to consolidate, to to to bring systems, many many offline systems together onto the the correct platform for managing your people and money. Extend has been used by organizations that have needed to respond to to, dramatic events such as COVID, war in in Ukraine, and and other other items that require immediate action, but all the time innovating. And Workday has approximately 20,000 employees, but we have 70,000,000 customers. And I like to think that within those 70,000,000 customers, there's enormous potential to innovate on what Workday gives you out of the box. Extend is the right place for people and money. It it it allows you to use the security and trust that is built into the Workday system, connecting you to the wider enterprise in so many ways that we could discuss this. And, of course, extend is the right place to build with AI. And building and infusing in AI into your apps is no longer a nice to do. It is such a game changer. So so much power in our AI. And, my colleague, Andy Andy Wilcox will be on a little bit later to give us a little bit of of an insight into Workday Extend Professional and the power of AI. Workday Extend is one of the fastest ever growing products in the history of Workday, and we are a twenty year old company. So this is saying something. We are aware of at least 2,500 production apps and growing all of the time. We recently celebrated Workday DevCon in Las Vegas, and the hackathon was won by by by by Tech Wolf, a very innovative organization in the area of skills, but it was such an amazing event. We are we are looking forward to bringing results of the hackathon to you within within the next number of weeks. 1,200 plus customers and growing all of the time and 50 plus approved partners. Many partners you will recognize and partners you you will not recognize. It is such such a healthy ecosystem. Workday is the right place to manage your people and your money. So Unrunning, enough of me speaking. So how did Unrunning learn to run faster with Workday? And, Bence, I'm gonna bring you back in here. Good morning once again. Hello again. Hello again. Can you please introduce both On Running and your role within On Running? Mhmm. Yeah. Of course. So On Running is a sportswear brand. At Toto Look from shoes to caps pretty much. The main sport, I would say, is running, although we have tennis and training also in, in our product line. And my role, you know, I'm working in the Verde team of on as a Verde extender developer almost one and a half years now. Originally, I was hired in more into an HCM administrative type of Workday role, but then transitioned into a Workday extent developer role. So to be clear, you are a HR professional first and foremost. We we had a conversation previously, and you mentioned your your qualifications, your degree wasn't well, wasn't HR rather than technology. Is that correct? Yes. That's correct. So I'm I'm not a software developer by any of my studies or anything like that. It said I have a degree in HR, HR management. So I picked up first Workday and then picked up, Workday, during my career, like, mostly learning by doing, but also using, other other resources to, to get to get these expertise. Fantastic. And I'm gonna drill into that a little bit later. Okay. But but On Running had a specific business challenge that you were initially looking to solve. I believe this was in the area of of of managing your contingent workforce. Can you tell us about the bit the specific business challenge? Can you tell us can you give us a a short summary of the challenge and the and the the problems it was creating for on running? Mhmm. Yes. So our our very original, use case, which, which we have decided to use, where they extend for, was managing our external workforce, so all external team members. At that time, we already had Workday, implemented in On, and we have already made Workday very, yeah, very seriously our source of truth. So Workday is the epicenter of our of all of our talent or HR systems, how you how you wanna call them. So everyone who's an internal team member in On was always in Workday at that time, and that was our source of truth. However, when it comes to external workforce, the managing of of external workforce was more or less scattered in, in different systems, like contracts were here and then, of course, a million spreadsheets with data here and there. So there was not a centralized solution to handle all the external team members. And this is where where the extent came into the picture, because we have decided that as we already have internals in Verdi and Verdi is our source of truth. It's a very logical step to get all the external workforce also into Verdi fully. So there is a need to simplify the environment? Mhmm. Yes. Absolutely. And how did extends help to solve the problem? So how we wanted to handle, the whole process of of hiring external workforce is quite unique to them, I would say. So that's why, we couldn't just simply use, a default solution by Verbi in HCM. But we as I said, we still wanted to use Verbi. So this is where Accent came into the picture, giving us the opportunity to to use Verde as the system, but to also customize it and, like, tailor it, as you said, to our needs. You have shared a screenshot of the first app. Yes. The app is given the beautiful name, manage my externals. Can you talk us through MME, please? Yes. So manage my externals in a sense, because we have given, full control to our managers to hire and maintain the external team members. So they can, they can initiate contracting an external person. They can initiate to end length this contract and also to end the contract. But you can see on the screenshot, things that I would highlight maybe is that this is a fully custom where they extend application. But on the left side, you can see that it lives in the manager insights hub, which is which is a very big delivery hub. Or aimed with that was that, this needs to be seamless. Like, our managers shouldn't even realize that they are actually going into a custom application. As you can see, it feels like feels like Verde. Looks like Verde. I wouldn't say may say smells like Verde, but most probably. But, yeah, like, that that was our goal to provide a simple solution because this application is used by our managers. And, yes, like, managers, not the highest priority for them to have in-depth word-of-mouth knowledge. So we have to cap keep it as simple as we can. And Sure. That's why it sleeps in the manager insights hub. And as you can see, it's really just giving you information of all of your workforce, and then it gives you the opportunity to hire new ones or contract new ones and to edit or slash end the contract of the existing ones with the two buttons on the top. Managing both the onboarding and the off board boarding of the contingent workforce. And to to to use the the the the language that we began with, you're tailoring an existing Workday, solution, and you are simplifying the the the wider HR technology environment by consolidating that information onto Workday and managing both onboarding and offboarding of contingent workers from from here. Mhmm. Amazing. In in conversations, we've had to date, you've also mentioned that this has led to a reduction in in the time spent onboarding and offboarding contingents. Is it correct that you've gone from hours to minutes? Mhmm. Yeah. Yes. I would say. May maybe first to show the next screenshot just to just show how the this is the contracting screen. So this is all the data that the manager has to put into Verdi in order to contract a new external, workforce. So this is just one place to go, one place to put data in, and then everything else is handled by the application in the background. This is the solution that we have delivered. And the solution before, as said, was just, Google Sheets here and there, and then you have to do the contracting in the different system. And then a manager, once that have been approved, has to go to IT and, and ask for the excesses. So it was a multiple step quite long process, which have turned into this very simple screen that you can see on the see on our screen, Sean. Amazing. So so surfacing all that rich complexity in Workday to creating a a new experience. And and I guess so so I've I've spent the morning with with with, another customer, and and they they they want to go with extend, and they're asking themselves well, they've asked us the question, how do you start? So I said, wait for this webinar and and and listen to customers because customers will tell you better than Workday will ever tell you. Can you explain the approach that on on running took to developing and delivering the the first extend, application? Did you start from scratch by yourself, or or what was involved? Nope. We haven't started from scratch with the very first one. So our approach was that for the very, very first application, which was developed, in on in Extend, we have used, an external partner. So or or idea or or approach was that we're gonna do the very, very first one together with someone who has the expertise and who has the the the experience and have developed multiple applications. So we have developed the first one, in holding hands of a of an external, external partner. And then after that, by acquire acquiring this, experience and knowledge also, internally, then we have switched to develop everything solely by yourself. Incredible. At what stage did you become involved? Were you involved with with with the the manage my externals, that app, or would did that come later? So this one, I wasn't improved in the development, phase in it. That was done by, done by, another team member before me. I was involved already when this was, live and in production and used by, used by our managers, so I was more on the maintaining side of this Okay. Very application. So so you've gone from from a from a HR function role to know which what could be described as a technology role. Can you describe the training you received and any assistance you received, number one, to help you prepare, but also then to succeed in in in the role? Mhmm. Yeah. Of course. So, I would say I've literally done every birthday training available. For instance, I have I have gone through the full official delivered by Verde, Verde extend trainings. I did the Verde Pro certification for extend, last summer, I believe. So my, my renewal time is coming, just realized. I would also highlight that, the the platform of of developers, the forum has free training also, which are also really great, very practical. You can actually go in, write code, see what happens. And I would also highlight the dev forum as a thing just how it is. Like, you can imagine it as a as a community for developers. It's questions, answers. It happened to me so many, many times that I was looking for, looking for, a solution for a problem, and I haven't even typed my question. I found the answer literally in the suggestions. So that's that's also my, that's also my go to place. I would also highlight that there were, applications already in, in production running where I when I started to, to transition into this role, so I had a code base to look at. I had a code base to understand. I had things to maybe copy paste, if I needed something similar. So first, I would say I started by reading and and learning, and then I reached, a stage where I could understand what's on the screen. And then I I was confident enough to touch which was something which is already there so you to amend an application. And then around six months, seven months, I would say, was the part where I was confident enough to do something on my own from scratch instead of just looking for bits and bits there and putting them together from a from existing code of, of other persons. And one last thing to highlight is that I also used expert assist by Verdi. So at the very beginning of my journey, I was in almost, on a weekly call with one of your, Verdi Converte Extant consultants. And, yeah, the nature of these calls started with him showing me around, literally telling me, okay. You write this, you write that, you put this there, you put this that. And then how I developed during my journey, this the nature of this course was developed into team, looking at my code, suggesting some improvements. So nowadays, it's more like code review, I would say, or or having another set of eyes on what have I done. I always show up with my solution and then ask, ask, ask my consultant if I overcomplicated it or not because sometimes I tend to overcomplicate things. Very good. So so so that that, would you describe yourself as as feeling mature as an extended developer? Not yet. I'm definitely have learned a ton of things in this, in this one and a half year. But as new features and new stuff just keep coming and coming, I don't think I would ever reach that stage when I could say that I'm done or it's, it's it's the finish line or anything like that. It's just ever learning, I would say. Growth growth mindset. Is there any advice you'd give to somebody watching this, either live or as a recording who's considering moving away from a a HR functional role into into a HR technology role? Any advice you'd like to get? But looking back, I would say it's it worth it. I really do enjoy it. I would say the the biggest thing which which this added to me personally is that I'm capable of delivering, custom solutions now. So I'm not tied into, into into 8AM. I can say to my, my colleagues coming to me with questions that, yeah, I most probably can develop something something like that. And, yeah, just just be consistent. Learn a lot. Like, I never really have written code before this, and it looks like I'm pretty much managing now. So it's a good book. And and and how are you managing demand from the business as they look look to you for more and more applications? Have you developed a process, or are you in the process of developing a process for for, I mean, it's you know, selecting apps to build? Mhmm. So we are in the in the process of of developing something so called the the extent development strategy, in our team. What I would say that a very typical use case, which we'll turn into an application, is is something that is very unique to on. So there's no packaged solution to to answer this problem, but we still would like to keep it in their day. Okay. I think think that's that's great advice. So so it's something that's not all already available, something specific to on, and something that would fit correctly in in Workday. Mhmm. So let's turn to applications you've developed. And and and and here's one on the spot. What's the quickest app you've ever developed? Well, the quickest was three weeks. But disclaimer, hey. The the disclaimer here, that's that's far from ideal, I would say. So you can actually do it. As a as a as a thumb rule, I would still say spend as much as time testing as you can, but, technically, the quickest turnaround was three weeks for us. And what was the name of that that app? It was a very simple application. It was just, a platform where, or HR business partners could nominate, team members for promotions. Wonderful. So so so, a nomination app. And and I believe that that's one of the widely used, use cases of of extend. Mhmm. But that that also gave me the, the feeling of how much potential still this app could have. Because as said, there was a time pressure. It was quite a quick, development cycle. But now what I'm looking back, and maybe this year, we can do some improvements. Like, I have a ton of things in my mind that, okay, this could be like that and that could be like that, and then this app most probably will go at least seven layers more. So so so you are really starting to run with extend. And there there there's an app I really like, one that you that you took me through was the, the job code, job codes app. I I'm I'm hearing similar requests from from many of the customers I'm speaking to. Can you explain to me why why this why this app was is important? It's it's also quite similar to the to the use case of the external that in a sense that we we would like to deliver a simplified solution for a stakeholder who's not spending their life in Burberry. Let's face it, that way. So this application is aimed at our talent business partners or HR business partners, if you would like to call it, that way, because they are responsible for creating job profiles. However, the create job profile, business process and that form is quite long. It has many, many data points, or approach to to job profiles slash job codes that one is much simpler. As you can see on the screen, you literally just have to put in, the name of the job code, the job code itself, everything else on there. So conversation rate, management level, and then, the job title is auto generated. So the only two fields here where there's user interaction is the is the two on top. And then everything else is auto generated, so it's a much, much simpler experience than going through the whole form of create job profile, if you would like to launch that, business process. In the background, however, it does the same. It's this thing, this screen here, what you see see, it's gonna launch the create job profile business process at the end. So at the end, what's what what's in the back is the same. It's only a simplified front, for our 10 MBPs. And oftentimes, this is what what employ what users want. They want a simplified experience that's intuitive. And it's phenomenal the way that you you you you're using the power within Workday and just creating a different experience. Yep. Okay. So you are developing a much more complex application right now. I know you're proud of it. I know it's keeping you up late at night, lots of work. Yeah. And I know that there's elements of Prism that have been brought into the developed experience as well. I know it's not it's not something you can share with us today, in terms of of a screenshot and and and giving us a look and feel. But could you talk us through the latest application that you're building? Yes. So it it's going to be the the most complex, which I have ever, which I have ever done. And as you mentioned, Prism, it's going to be the very first application of on where extent and and Prism is going to be connected directly. It's again something which is very unique to On Running, but something which is very logical to keep, in Verde. It's going to handle position planning for next year, pretty much, like, from a to zed, FTEs, interns, external workforce. You name it. It's going to be in there, under one roof, and this is where we're going to do our our our planning for next year. And, yes, everything all the data that we that we gather in this, in this application, is going to feed into a Prism dashboard. Sounds like sounds like more than three weeks work. Yeah. This is in development since mid February, I believe. And already already hit version 100 because we have beers at version 100, so I remember that. And and who who drove the the the requirements here? Which which which which business function were was looking for this capability? It's coming, directly from, from, I would say, talent slash slash slash management who is involved in in position planning. So last year, this was done in Google Sheets. And I think it's a very great example, of bringing something, which is in in sheets or or in any other, kind of solution into into where they extend, which is much better, on security. Yeah. I would say also security and and just, you can imagine, like, it's it's personal data. It's very sensitive data, for the organization. So it's better if it's, if it's stored under one roof in, in Verde. I look forward to seeing the, the output of this. And, actually, you've recently returned from DevCon, so you you were jet lagged last week when I spoke to you, and, I believe you had a good experience in DevCon, when you managed to get away from the roulette table. But, joking aside, you did share a frustration with me, and, I'll put this out there to to anybody attending DevCon next year. Bence mentioned that I he would have loved to have joined the hackathon, but seeing as he was a solo attendee that he that he he didn't find a way to join it. So maybe next year, we create some kind of bench option where where where where where people attending solo can join up. Maybe maybe we even create a category for this. So I'm gonna put a a a a call out to the, people that run the DevCom and and and and ask them to consider this. But any takeaways from DevCom? Yes. I really do enjoyed, the sessions. I've been I've been to a couple. It's really a bummer that I missed the the meetup, between AJJ and and the EMEA developers because I will be eager to to, to connect with the with the other developers in in these regions because I believe it's a bit America heavy still, when it comes to the developer, community. One thing I would highlight maybe is that I should never play roulette. I have zero luck. And the the second one, second one, would be the hands on lab, which I really do enjoy. So what is what is that is that, you know, you all have all these fancy presentations and sessions of the new features coming in. But on the hands on lab, you can actually ride there, ride that at that time, just sit in front of a computer and actually work on these new features. So I was, I was testing out the new AI widget, which is coming, which is really, really, really, really nice. I enjoyed doing that. And, yeah, this was the same last year, not just this year, that I really enjoy that I get to look at the new stuff. But I can't AI widget, but a call out safe harbor statement applies here. It is coming quickly, but it is beautiful. Amazing. Amazing. But in the interest of time, and I wanna leave some time aside for for q and a, and I'm sure I'm sure, people joining today will will want to ask you questions. I could go on forever. I speak a lot of events as you know. We're gonna bring Andrew Wilcox in. Good morning, Andrew. How are you today? Morning, Michael. Yeah. No. I'm very well. Thank you. So so, Andrew and I have already been presenting this morning, so we're we're we're we're well in presenter mode. And, we're we're going to to go through some of the features of Workday Extend Professional. Now one of those is Copilot, of course. And, Bence, some sort of Copilot was around when you were starting, it would have made life much, much easier. But with no further ado, I'm going to pass over to an Andrew. Perfect. Thank you, Michael. Thank you, Bence. So I thought it was great to hear, exactly how you're using extend and how you got up and running. But I guess, so so hi, everyone. My name's Andrew Wilcox. I'm a solution consultant at, at Workday. And I guess, for for for the next few minutes, we wanted to talk about extend and the extend professional parts where we're looking at, you know, those AI features that you can obviously use and bring into into your apps that you develop now. So if we look at what those those features are, I've kind of booked it into to three main areas. So one is, obviously, the Workday Gateway. We've got the idea from your apps that the you could use the, native AWS integration that we have. So the idea of those AWS services that can be part of that extended development platform, you can use those as well. And then finally, the Workday Extend Developer Copilot, the idea of, you know, being able to ask in natural language something that you want to develop, and the, the system can create that for you. So if we go through some of those in a bit more detail. So what is the Workday AI Gateway? So the AI gateway is, infrastructure that we have as part of Workday. And and, obviously, Workday may be using this as, functionality within core products, but the idea is these these are services that are available via API. Now when they're available via API, as part of that extend app that you you create and call, you can, use those services that are available. So you don't have to go off and start to create that functionality yourself. That's already there available for you. You can just then do that transformation on your data based, on the app that you want to create. So if we look at just a couple there, for example, you know, the idea of document intelligence. The idea that you can, within your app, have that ability to upload a document. That document that then is uploaded can be called that API to do set transformation on that data that it reads. So it could read a CV, for example, and it could start to extract out skills. It could start to track extract out the details of the contact, that are on, that particular, CV that's been uploaded. If you look at the QA generation, the idea that, again, we have a a couple of documents. Maybe you want to upload documents into that. And then once that, app that you've created, ingest that document to understand that, you could then create within your app the ability for your end users to go in and ask you questions. So if it was something like a a policy document as a a simple example, you know, the idea I could ask, you know, how many hours do I need to fly for? I can go business class. And it can obviously understand that document and bring you back the answer. So it might bring back an answer of eight hours or something like that. But that's the type of functionality you can get part of that. So all of those are your extend app, But within that transformation, that you want to perform, we can obviously call out to these, AI gateway services for it to do extra functionality, you know, to speed up, you know, that information that you want to create. Now from the perspective of the availability of those, when you create your apps, as I said, these are just APIs for you to get. But these apps that I've just mentioned about, the document intelligence and the QA generation helper, these are actually apps that we have as prebuilt in our catalog. So if you could get up and running quickly and as as Bence said, you know, you want to pause for something that how did it make those calls? There are things that are prebuilt there for you to be able to have a look at and obviously pick up and use, very quickly. So just within within that for the moment, what I wanted to do was just quickly show a little bit of some of those, apps that we just talked about and that functionality. So what you can see on screen at the moment is, I'm in my Workday environment. Now what I'm able to do within here is when we create that extend app or if it's one of those that I get from the app catalog, you can then deploy them into your Workday environment. And as you saw, with Bence screen, you know, you're embedding it in different parts of Workday so the end user doesn't know the difference. But if I just take the top one, you know, we can you create those custom tasks, from the app. So, you know, in the way you wanna access it from a menu, you wanna put it on a hub, you wanna put it, from the from the search bar to go and get it. End users then within the flow of, you know, their everyday work within Workday. They can then call those apps. Now as you can see within this one, this app, look and feel of, Workday, it's got the same widgets. You can then drive that functionality in that UX design that you create for the end user to have a simple, way for them to be able to, connect to this environment and obviously, follow that flow. So, I do have one in here somewhere. Human resources. Where have you gone? I do have can't see it. Well, there it is. The CV. I was wondering. I've lost that there. So the idea is I've got a CV, and we could make a call to that to obviously pick up, that specific document. And if you want to see what that document look like, this is that human resources document that that's just got, that that we've got for as part of that CV. Now in the app, once we've loaded that document, what do you want it to do? Well, obviously, I can compare this to a comparison for a a job profile that I've got. I wanna compare this, you know, the skills that are that it finds within the document. I wanted to compare that for, you know, for a role that I was looking for for within my job profile. And so within the app, what it's actually gonna do, it's obviously gonna read that CV. It's gonna do, that API call within the AI gateway to read that data, and you could populate a screen with that information. So the idea is it can then pick out applicant details. It can find skills that match that job profile that was selected on that, drop down. You can find additional skills that Looks like we've lost, Andrew for now. So until Andrew comes back on, maybe we bring Ben back on stage, and we'll open up q and a. Ben, do you wanna join me? On stage? Hello again, Andy? Hi there. Sorry. I I'm not quite sure. Yes. We're having some we're having some technical challenges. So, okay. I think that was just where I was swapping, sharing, actually. Okay. So, hopefully, you can see my screen. Okay? And I'm back again for the moment. I'll just go through these very quickly. But the idea is then okay. So that was a quick view of using that AI gateway, native AWS integration. What can we do there? Well well, I guess if you look at it, when you create your extend app, you can use that functionality within AWS. So the idea you can do text extract. You can do some translations. You can use the Lambda functionality of that. So you could have, obviously, Python, within there. So you could create your own, AIML, functions. So the idea that you could extract data just similar to what we did for resume, but maybe you wanna do that for passports. Maybe you want to do that for driving licenses. So whatever that data is, you know, whether it was handwritten, whether it's in a nice textual PDF. The idea is you could actually use that additional coding that you could create within within AWS, but, obviously, we can transform that app to do, to do a lot more. And I guess the final part to this is developer copilot. The idea that, you can use, the the idea of natural language to ask to be able to build an app quicker rather than having to do the code. And so the idea here is, you know, we want to ask and get that app development a lot quicker than we might take. You know? You have that ability to go and do the coding, but can we do that development much, much quicker by letting the system create that for us? So I'm gonna try. I've got a few minutes. I'll give it a try before we go to the q and a part just to see if we can do the sharing one more time. And, hopefully, this time, we won't have an issue with, connections, but just enough so that, hopefully, I I can share this with you. So, as you can see, what I'm in at the moment is is the extend developer app. And what we've got here is this is where we control that low code environment for us to connect, and develop the app so it would have those widgets that you see on the screen that I just showed just a few minutes ago. Now for this example, what I'm gonna do, I'm just gonna connect into, a development environment just to show you, how this would work from a developer Copilot perspective. So, hopefully, what you see is, when you're in the, the app developer so, obviously, it's all driven by by connection to the web. You know, we're not having within the, the web interface, we're not having to download external tools. But the idea is I can have an employee nomination form within here. It's got a couple of cards, and I can create that navigation like we just saw. However, how would I create a page where we wanted to enter that nomination information? So on that left hand side, I can go into the, developer Copilot, and I can start to type, you know, what I want. I need a page to enter a new nomination. You know, I want it to have, placeholders in in the textual fields, where I've got, like, company values. And then the idea is, you know, if I wanted someone that's entering the information, you know, you can give that information to say the reason for this nomination is, and that'll hopefully come up in that reason field. So what's actually happened now, it's the the system has taken that information, and it has created the code. So this is the, the JSON code that we might, use behind the scenes. That's what it's created, and you can see it's created me a create nomination page. Now I have the ability once I've created that, I could've gone and tested it. In the interest of time, I've just added that app to my page. But what we'll see when we go back now is under my pages section, so the different screens, I have the ability to have a create nomination page. So all I did was, obviously ask the the system to, create this for me, and you'll see that there are a number of elements within my app that it's created. So I have the idea now of being able to enter information very quickly. I can pick, an employee so it knows let's pick, Logan as an example. And let's put, this is for a webinar. Okay. So the idea is what what this is actually gonna do, when we created that information, it knew that, my business object, the nomination, where we're gonna store this data, it could read the fields, and it could create that page for me. So it has the context of the information, the app that we're creating. And if I do this very quickly so what would have happened in the app when I just asked it to create me a page, it was allowing me to input data, and we're storing that within, you know, within our Workday platform as a different object. What I would like it to do now is is that's great that I've been able to create a page very quickly to add, add information. But what I might want to do now as well is I might want to view that information that I've just entered on screen. So, again, I just used a Developer Copilot very quickly just to say, yeah, create me a page that can show me all the data that that that I'm entering. And as you'll see on screen now, that very bottom record for today, I'll do it quickly. This is for the webinar. You know, the idea that we can create those different pages very quickly so that, from the perspective of using Developer Copilot, it helps me create my pages and screens, and then I can have the buttons and that navigation and put this and deploy it within my Workday environment. But it's that idea of, you know, being able to create information really quickly that's all part of of the app that that I want to create. And so that was, Developer Copilot. And so that covered really, I guess, the the three areas of what we wanted to cover from, you know, the AI gateway. You could do additional, coding and so forth within AWS. And finally, the AI to help you, generate your apps really quickly. So, hopefully, that gave you a good flavor of, you know, how you can extend that ability to develop additional functionality when you create your your Xtendax. And so at this point, I'll pause for the moment. And so we'll, we'll go through a q and a section there. And so, yeah, I guess at this point, I'll post you can you can go through those different questions that you probably posted already. Andy, thank you so much. The power of AI is here and it's it's exploding. And Workday Extend allows you to to really bring that power to Workday and to do it now. Thank you for that. So time for q and a. So do we have any questions coming in? Okay. We have a question from Sohrab Sharma. Hi, Andrew. How will you deploy this to production, and how can we find this in Workday? Okay. So the question, so can I just clarify then? So the app that was created, I guess, that was what we're talking about. How do we deploy that in production, and then how we define it? Okay. So I think from that perspective, obviously, I didn't show this in my in in that specific part of showing the demonstration. But the idea is, in that top right hand corner of my screen, there was a, save and deploy. So once I'm happy with that development, because I was just showing it in the in the test screen there for for speed, there is a deploy there. So I can then deploy the app that I've created, and that will deploy that in my development tenant, within that extend environment. And then from there, I can start to test that, in that development tenant to make sure that it works, as required. As well as deploying it, once we have that as part of that those app screens, you can also create, you know, you saw me create pages. There are custom tasks within there as well. So I could create a custom task. That custom task could have been called, you know, nominations or my nomination, and that task could then have been, once I've actually deployed it, I could have called that from the search bar or added it to a menu as a shortcut so that once that app is deployed in the tenant, you know, there's quick access to it by the different, end users. So hopefully that helps, answer that pretty quickly. And, Andrew, we have a question in relation to Copilot. It's from Jacob Distler. Can the Copilot create business process or use or or use the before created business processes, when a new page is requested? I guess, are you previously created business process processes when a new page is requested? Okay. So I I haven't tried it to create a specific business process. I'm not sure it can off the top of my head. Obviously, in that developer one, you can create the business process because, you know, we just create the business process and then we go off to create, you know, what will that workflow look like. So, you know, does it need to go to this certain security group for approval? So, obviously, you would have to specify that. I haven't tried it personally. We can we can double check that, but I guess you have that choice. You know, it can be obviously, you can create that new one as a VP or we can execute it in the app to invoke an existing VP. Will the Copilot create it all for you? I don't think it will off the top of my head, but we'll do it. Yes. Let's double check and revert. There's a question from Mayank Shohan, and the question is, is there a way to use Slack as a UI for some of the actions to, to feed to AI and then perform the action in Workday? Okay. So, I guess we're talking about here when when you're using Slack, as part of that communication within Workday, so that you could say, yeah, book me holiday or or something like that to take the action. Again, off the top of my head, I don't think we do that at present, to feed directly into the AI into, like, the AI gateway. So, again, we we can double check that from a a road map perspective to see if that's on there, but I don't believe so at the moment. That is normally, yeah, an app that you're calling where where you need a button to invoke it or you want to, have orchestration call that data and then invoke that. But I'm not sure it's all done, for Slack at the moment. We're going to stop the q and a there, and we we would like to thank you for for your questions, and we will revert with with detailed answers in relation to all of these questions.
