Workday Development in Dundee

Building on Workday for Dundee organisations, where most of what gets called development is reporting. Custom reports and calculated fields are where the platform is genuinely extended day to day — and a calculated field written once and referenced everywhere becomes a piece of business logic that deserves the care given to code.

Why this comes up

The problem

Dozens of reports each recalculate headcount slightly differently, and no two of them agree at month end.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Calculated fields built once, named clearly and reused rather than duplicated
  • Report definitions agreed with the business before they are built
  • Performance considered, since compound calculated fields become slow at scale
  • Security on reports matched to who should see the underlying data
  • Extend applications used where genuinely new functionality is required
  • Everything documented, because a calculated field's purpose is not self-evident

Thirty minutes, no charge, no sales script. You leave with a written summary of what workday development would actually involve — whether or not you use us.

Workday Development in Dundee — common questions

Why treat calculated fields as code?
Because they encode business rules and get reused. A field defining what counts as an active employee will end up in reports, processes and integrations, and if three near-identical versions exist the organisation has three definitions of the same thing.
Do calculated fields affect performance?
Noticeably, when they stack. Fields built on other fields built on others evaluate at runtime, and a report that was quick against a hundred rows can become unusable against tens of thousands — which usually appears after go-live rather than during testing.
When is Workday Extend appropriate?
When you need functionality the platform does not have and the data belongs in Workday. It is a real development capability with real costs, so it is worth confirming that configuration genuinely cannot meet the requirement before committing to build.
Who should own report definitions?
The business function that uses them, with a technical owner for how they are built. Reports created ad hoc by whoever needed a number are how organisations end up with several answers to a question that should only have one.
Do you work with businesses across Dundee City?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Scotland, including Dundee and the surrounding Dundee City area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Dundee businesses do you usually work with?
Interactive and games-adjacent development, plus life sciences data systems tied to the university research base. Beyond that we work across Games & Digital, Life Sciences, Higher Education, Healthcare and Marine.
Do you cover the areas around Dundee?
Yes — we work throughout Scotland, including Perth, Aberdeen, Edinburgh. Dundee is an urban area of roughly 150,000+, and we take on work across the wider Dundee City region rather than the city boundary alone.
