The scenario describes a Core Connector: Worker integration configured to output specific fields (Position Title and Business Title) for workers who meet the Integration Population Eligibility criteria (Is Manager = true) and where the Transaction Log service is subscribed to the "Position Edit Event." The integration is launched with specific date parameters, and a test edit is made to Jared Ellis’ position, who is a manager. However, despite the edit being completed with an effective date of 05/24/2024 and an entry moment of 05/24/2024 07:58:53 AM, Jared does not appear in the output. Let’s analyze why and determine the correct configuration element to modify.

In Workday integrations, the Core Connector: Worker uses change detection mechanisms to identify and process updates based on the Transaction Log and date launch parameters. The Transaction Log service captures events such as the "Position Edit Event" and records them with an Effective Date (when the change takes effect) and an Entry Moment (when the change was entered into the system). The integration’s date launch parameters define the time window for which changes are retrieved:

As of Entry Moment: 05/25/2024 12:00:00 AM – This specifies the latest point in time for when changes were entered into Workday.

Effective Date: 05/25/2024 – This defines the date for which the changes are effective.

Last Successful As of Entry Moment: 05/23/2024 12:00:00 AM – This indicates the starting point for entry moments from the last successful run.

Last Successful Effective Date: 05/23/2024 – This indicates the starting point for effective dates from the last successful run.

For an incremental run (like this one, since "Last Successful" parameters are provided), Workday processes changes where the Entry Moment falls between the Last Successful As of Entry Moment (05/23/2024 12:00:00 AM) and the As of Entry Moment (05/25/2024 12:00:00 AM), and where the Effective Date falls between the Last Successful Effective Date (05/23/2024) and the Effective Date (05/25/2024).

Now, let’s evaluate Jared Ellis’ edit:

Entry Moment: 05/24/2024 07:58:53 AM – This falls within the range of 05/23/2024 12:00:00 AM to 05/25/2024 12:00:00 AM.

Effective Date: 05/24/2024 – This falls within the range of 05/23/2024 to 05/25/2024.

At first glance, Jared’s edit seems to fit the date parameter window. However, the issue lies in the time component of the date launch parameters. Workday interprets these parameters with precision down to the second. The As of Entry Moment is set to 05/25/2024 12:00:00 AM (midnight), which is the very start of May 25, 2024. Jared’s Entry Moment of 05/24/2024 07:58:53 AM is correctly within the range from 05/23/2024 12:00:00 AM to 05/25/2024 12:00:00 AM. However, the Transaction Log subscription to "Position Edit Event" relies on the change being fully processed and available in the log by the time the integration runs.

The integration might have run at a point where the effective date window or the subscription logic did not correctly capture the event due to a mismatch in how the Effective Date is evaluated against the Last Successful Effective Date. Specifically, if the integration only processes changes with an Effective Date strictly after the Last Successful Effective Date (05/23/2024) up to the Effective Date (05/25/2024), and the logic excludes changes effective exactly on 05/24/2024 due to a boundary condition or a timing issue in the transaction log, Jared’s change might not be picked up.

To resolve this, modifying the Date launch parameters is necessary. Adjusting the As of Entry Moment to a later time (e.g., 05/25/2024 11:59:59 PM) or ensuring the Effective Date range explicitly includes all changes effective on or after 05/23/2024 through 05/25/2024 would ensure Jared’s edit is captured. This adjustment aligns the time window to include all relevant transactions logged before the integration run.

Let’s evaluate the other options:

A. Integration Population Eligibility: This is set to "Is Manager = true," and Jared is a manager. This filter is working correctly and does not need modification.

B. Integration Field Attributes: These are configured to output Position Title and Business Title, and the edit was to the Job Profile (part of Position Data). The fields are appropriately configured, so this is not the issue.

D. Transaction Log Subscription: The subscription is set to "Position Edit Event," which matches Jared’s edit. The subscription type is correct, so no change is needed here.

Thus, the issue stems from the date launch parameters not fully encompassing the timing of Jared’s edit in the Transaction Log, making C. Date launch parameters the correct answer.

Inside each , the target value Relationship_ID resides under:

wd:Dependents_Group

→ wd:Relationship

→ wd:ID (wd:type="Relationship_ID")

When writing the template:

XSLT uses a relative XPath (starting with ./) to navigate from the matched node.

Therefore, the correct XPath should be:

/wd:Dependents_Group/wd:Relationship/wd:ID

That expression selects the wd:ID element so you can then test/extract where wd:type="Relationship_ID".

Why the other options are incorrect:

Option

Why Incorrect

A & B

These use an equality test incorrectly inside the XPath expression — they would not return the node value and are syntactically invalid for value extraction.

C

Missing ./ — would still work in many cases, but Workday XSLT best practice is to use relative paths when inside a match.

Workday Pro Integration guidance for RaaS/XSLT stresses:

Always scope node selection relative to the current context tree using prefix‑qualified XPath expressions.

This scenario addresses an issue where a Core Connector: Worker integration — with DIS enabled and Full-Diff mode configured — unexpectedly includes terminated workers in the output, despite a requirement to include only active workers.

The correct step to address this issue is the configuration of Integration Population Eligibility.

From the Workday Pro: Integrations – Core Connector Configuration Guide, the relevant extract states:

“The Integration Population Eligibility step allows users to define which workers or populations are eligible to be included in the integration output. This includes filtering by worker status, organization, supervisory org, or other eligibility criteria. If this is not configured to exclude terminated workers, the integration will include all workers who meet the event conditions, regardless of their current status.”

Even though the integration uses change detection and the correct launch parameters, Workday still considers any worker with a qualifying change, including those terminated, unless they are explicitly excluded via eligibility rules.

Therefore, to prevent terminated workers from appearing in the output, you must set a filter in the Integration Population Eligibility step to include only active workers (e.g., using Worker.Status = Active or similar criteria).

Incorrect Options Explained:

A. Configure Integration Attributes... Include Inactive Workers in Full FileThis option would cause inactive (e.g., terminated) workers to be included when enabled. It doesn’t help filter them out.

B. Configure Integration Transaction Log... subscribe to everything except terminationSubscription controls which events trigger processing but does not control population eligibility. Terminated workers with address changes prior to termination could still appear if eligibility is not defined.

D. Configure Integration Field Overrides... use Eligibility CriterionField Overrides change data mappings or formats, not population eligibility. It cannot exclude terminated workers.
