Question #: 36
Topic #: 1
Refer to the following scenario to answer the question below.


An enterprise creates organizational goals that include the following criteria:
* The organizational goals span five years.
* Workers can align their individual goals with the organizational goals.
* Workers must provide a description for each individual goal.
* Each individual goal must fall within one of three groupings.
When workers create their goals, they need to include a goal description.
Where do you make the goal description a required field?

Suggested Answer: D Vote an answer

* To make specific goal fieldsmandatory(such as requiring a goal description), you must configure this in theConfigure Individual Goals sectionof theMaintain Goal Setuptask.
* In this section, administrators define which fields are:
* Required(must be completed by the worker),
* Optional, or
* Hidden(not shown to users).
* TheMaintain Goal Categories taskonly sets up categories such as Innovation, Financial, Productivity.
* TheMaintain Goal Units taskconfigures measurement units (e.g., percentages, dollars).
* TheConfigure Organization Goals sectiongoverns how enterprise-level organizational goals behave, but does not control whether an individual field like "Description" is required.
Therefore, to enforce that workers must always provide a goal description, you configure this requirement in theConfigure Individual Goals section.
References:
Workday Talent & Performance Admin Guide: "Configure Individual Goals section allows fields such as description, due date, and measurement to be marked as required or optional." Workday Pro Talent & Performance study material confirms:"Goal description requirements are set in Configure Individual Goals, not in organization goal setup or categories."
