Intro

Workday Adaptive Planning provides powerful, secure, and collaborative plans for your business agility. Upgrade your planning, modeling, budgeting, and forecasting to make better and faster decisions. With the Workday Adaptive Planning Writeback connector you can export your data from a Domo DataSet to your Workday Adaptive Planning account. To learn more about the Adaptive Insights API, log into Adaptive Insights and go to Product Documents > Integration Guide. You configure your Domo-Workday Adaptive Planning connection in the Data Center. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the Workday Adaptive Planning Writeback Connector user interface. General information for adding DataSets, setting update schedules, and editing DataSet information is discussed in Adding a DataSet Using a Data Connector.
Note: The owner of a writeback dataset must also be an owner or co-owner of the input dataset.

Prerequisites

To configure this Connector, you must have the following:
  • Your Domo Developer account credentials (Client ID and Client Secret).
  • Your Workday Adaptive Planning username and password.
  • Your Workday Adaptive Planning instance. Find your instance code in Admin -> System -> General Setup -> Setup Information -> Code

To obtain your Domo Client ID and Client Secret:

  1. Log into the Domo developer account.
  2. In the top right corner under My Account click New Client.
  3. Enter the application name and description.
  4. Provide the application scope by selecting the checkboxes for Data and User.
  5. Click Create.
Once you have created a client, you can manage the client by clicking on Manage Client.

Configuring the Connection

This section enumerates the options in the Credentials and Details panes in the Workday Adaptive Planning Writeback Connector page. The components of the other panes in this page, Scheduling and Name & Describe Your DataSet, are universal across most Connector types and are discussed in greater length in Adding a DataSet Using a Data Connector.

Credentials Pane

This pane contains fields for entering credentials to connect to your Domo developer account as well as the Workday Adaptive Planning account where you want your data to be copied to. The following table describes what is needed for each field:

Field

For more information about obtaining these credentials, see “Prerequisites,” above. Once you have entered valid credentials, you can use the same account any time you go to set up a new Domo-Workday Adaptive Planning connection. You can manage connector accounts in the Accounts tab in the Data Center. For more information about this tab, see Managing User Accounts for Connectors.

Details Pane

This pane contains a number of fields for specifying your data and indicating where it’s going.

Menu

Description

DataSet ID

Enter the DataSet ID (GUID) for the DataSet you want to copy to Workday Adaptive Planning . You can find the ID by opening the details view for the DataSet in the Data Center and looking at the portion of the URL following datasources/ . For example, in the URL https://mycompany.domo.com/datasources/845305d8-da3d-4107-a9d6-13ef3f86d4a4/details/overview , the DataSet ID is 845305d8-da3d-4107-a9d6-13ef3f86d4a4.

Data Types Select the data type (plan/actuals).
Type of data to export Specify whether you want to export version or sheet.
Delete existing data prior to import? Select this checkbox if you want to delete the existing data before the import.
Date Selection Select date range to delete data.
Filter By Select the filter by option.
Delete Cell Notes? Specify whether you want to delete cell notes.
Map dataset fields and Adaptive Planning fields

Select whether to use automated mapping (if your dataset fields match Adaptive Planning Fields) or to define the mapping manually.

For manual mapping, match the desired Adaptive Planning fields and dataset columns.

Generating the mapping automatically only works if the Adaptive Planning Fields and dataset Fields are an exact match.

Cube Sheet Data Write Cube Data inside Adaptive Planning.
Modeled Sheet Data Write Modeled Data inside Adaptive Planning.
Standard Account Data Write Standard Account Data inside Adaptive Planning.
Date Selection Select the date format for your data.
