Drive-up Your Financial Planning!

Use the world-class budgeting, forecasting and planning solutions to keep up with today’s changing business environment.

Modelling

The outdated FP&A platform may limit today's enterprises to model size, dimensions, number of versions, and batch processing, not to mention the limit on the number of what-if analysis scenarios that can be run. Workday Adaptive Planning eliminates these restrictions, allowing you to plan, budget or forecast at will, and plan as much as possible.

  • Accurately forecast the impact of multiple scenarios.

  • A variety of interfaces are available to allow you to work the way you are used to.

  • You can easily plan and forecast around your financial calendar, academic calendar, financing plan, income recognition plan and other business milestones.
