Encompass: Required Workday Training for Managers

The University of Mississippi and Encompass logos

Dear University of Mississippi Managers,

As we approach the new year—and our first full pay period in Workday on January 15—your leadership and engagement are essential to ensuring a smooth transition for our entire campus community. To help guarantee a successful first payroll run, please take time to complete the required Workday training on time tracking and approval processes.

There are 6 short videos to watch. Together, they take about 20 minutes to view. Afterward, you’ll complete a brief quiz.

How to Access the Course:

Visit blackboard.olemiss.edu.
Select “Log in using your WebID.” Enter your WebID and password and complete two-factor authentication.
After logging in, open the Courses tab. Locate the Workday Required Course folder.
Select your assigned course (e.g., Time Tracking for Managers).

We also ask that you proactively support your employees by reinforcing your department’s designated time-tracking method and helping them understand how to submit their time in Workday. Employees need to know that submitting time is a three-step process: enter time, submit time, and manager approval. Without manager approval, time cannot be paid. If additional questions arise, please direct employees to the appropriate resources.

Your attentiveness and guidance over the next month will make a meaningful difference in creating a seamless experience for our staff and student employees as we move into this new system.

Please contact Human Resources if you have any questions.

Thank you for your leadership and continued partnership during this important transition.

Sincerely,

Steven G. Holley
