Update Extensible Flexfields for a Legal Entity

To update the extensible flexfields info for a legal entity:

  1. On the Legal Entity HCM Information search page, search for and click the legal entity that you want to update.
  2. On the read-only legal entity page, click Update.

    You’re now taken to the guided process for editing the legal entity.

  3. In the Info to include step of the guided process, select the Payroll statutory unit details step if you want to include it, and click Continue.

    The Legal employer details step is included by default. You can also see it in the navigation pane of the process.

    Note: If the legal entity is both a legal employer and a payroll statutory unit, then Legal employer details is included as a required step. The Payroll statutory unit details step is an optional step that you can choose to add.
  4. In the When and why step, select an Effective Start Date and an Action Reason, and click Continue.
  5. In the Legal employer details step, update the info in the Workday Information and Legal Employer Information sections and click Submit.

You’re taken back to the view page where you can see the changes you made.

Note:

The History section shows the history of changes. But the Summary of changes section isn’t available because all the changes that you’re making here are only for the extensible flexfields.
