WORKDAY
What does DESSS deliver for Workday Financial Management?
DESSS delivers Workday Financial Management on Workday through the workday financial management implementation: chart of accounts and ledger design; close calendar and process mapping; ledger, tax and banking configuration; opening balances and history; parallel close; go-live and first close support. Each step closes with named deliverables you sign off before the next begins.

A typical DESSS Workday Financial Management delivery runs 6 steps, with the final step reached around weeks 12–14. Complex integrations, multi-entity scope, or regulated environments extend that — the discovery session produces a dated plan for your case rather than an average.
Every step closes with named deliverables — Bank integration, Chart of accounts design, Close calendar, Configured ledgers, Control points, Cutover runbook, Dimension model, First close support — so progress is visible, auditable, and reviewable rather than a status colour on a slide.
