Ever feel like you could use a super-smart assistant to handle the everyday complexities of HR and Finance? 

Well, Workday 2025 is shaping up to be just that – your intelligent co-pilot. With over 350 new features and updates rolling out, it’s clear that Workday is doubling down on making our work lives more efficient and, frankly, a little bit easier. 

The buzz around Artificial Intelligence (AI) isn't just hype here; it's woven right into the fabric of these updates, promising to transform how we manage our most valuable assets: our people and our money. Let's take a closer look at some of the cool stuff coming our way.

Smarter Hiring and Candidate Experiences with AI

Think about hiring, for instance. Traditionally, sifting through countless applications and trying to find that perfect fit can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. Workday 2025 is changing that with AI-powered intelligent job recommendations. 

Imagine the system actually understanding an employee’s skills and career aspirations and then proactively suggesting relevant internal opportunities. This isn’t just about filling a role; it’s about fostering growth, boosting retention, and making sure people are in jobs where they can truly shine. Plus, it helps employees see clear pathways for their development within the organization.

Here’s a quick look at what this means for you:

• AI-Driven Job Recommendations: Matches employee skills and interests with internal opportunities, boosting retention and development.

• AI-Generated Job Descriptions: Saves HR time and ensures consistent, clear role definitions.

• Personalized Onboarding: Creates a seamless and engaging experience for new hires from day one.

Boosting Frontline Efficiency Through Intelligent Automation

For those on the front lines, managing time can be a real hassle. Fumbling with time sheets or trying to remember exactly what you worked on can lead to inaccuracies and frustration. Workday 2025 is tackling this with time-tracking intelligent prompts.

Picture this: the system uses AI to suggest time entries based on your schedule and recent activities, making clocking in and out faster and more intuitive. This not only improves accuracy but also frees up valuable time for your frontline workers to focus on what they do best.

• Time-Tracking Intelligent Prompts: AI suggests time entries for frontline workers, improving accuracy and saving time.

Streamlining Finance Processes with Artificial Intelligence

Now, let's talk about the finance side of things. Dealing with invoices and purchase orders can often feel like navigating a maze of paperwork. Workday 2025 is bringing AI to the rescue with AI-powered Accounts Payable. This feature can automatically check scanned invoices, identify missing purchase orders, and flag any discrepancies, significantly streamlining the entire process. This means faster payments, fewer errors, and a more efficient finance team.

Creating service quotes can also be a cumbersome process, often involving spreadsheets and manual calculations. Workday Services CPQ (Configure, Price, Quote) is stepping in to replace those outdated methods with automated tools. This allows you to generate accurate and professional service quotes quickly, speeding up your sales cycle and helping you close deals faster.

• AI-Powered Accounts Payable: Automates invoice processing, identifies missing POs, and reduces errors.

• Workday Services CPQ: Automates service quote creation, speeding up deal closures.

The Numbers Speak Volumes

The numbers really underscore the value that Workday brings to businesses. In their fiscal year 2025, Workday saw a robust total revenue increase of 16.4%, reaching a staggering $8.446 billion. What’s even more telling is the growth in their subscription revenues, which jumped by 16.9% to $7.718 billion.
