The attached pdf lists the roles for Account Certification

No, items are not physically “checked” during Workday’s Account Certifications process.  The functionality shows all activity from the fiscal period being reconciled (per worktag combination) and cannot filter out items that have been approved on the front-end versus not. 

Account Certifications will still need to be completed within 30 calendar days after month-end close. 

There will be one exception – the first month Jul 2022-2023, normally due Aug 30, 2022 will now be due by Sep 30, 2023.  So, you have an extra month to reconcile Jul 2022-2023’s Account Certifications.  Please note:  Aug 2022-2023 will still be due by Sep 30, 2023.

Yes, both revenue and expenditures will be reconciled during the Account Certification process.

You will not see planned expenses in your Account Certification.  You will only see transactions that have been posted to the worktag combination you are reconciling.  To monitor planned expenses, you can run the Details for Account Certification report, but change the Ledger Account from Actuals to Obligation.

Notifications will be sent in Workday for Account Certifications.  They will come to your Notifications, the bell icon, on your Workday home page. 

The role of examiner is no longer part of the account certification process. In the past, the examiner was formally part of the reconciliation process.  If you still need another set of eyes on the reconciliation, those people that were examiners before can pull reports in Workday like the General Ledger Details report to view all the transactions that occurred in the period being reconciled.  

The Account Certification Business Process will not be kicked off until after the month-end close, which means you will not be able to begin working on your Account Certifications early.  You can pull the General Ledger Details report for your Account Certification worktag combinations to see the transactions that have been posted at any time.
