SECTION 1: WORKDAY TENANTS (Questions 1-25)
Question 1
What are the three types of production tenants that all Workday
customers are entitled to?
A. Production, Development, and Testing
B. Production, Sandbox, and Sandbox Preview
C. Production, Implementation, and Training
D. Sandbox, Implementation, and Preview
Answer: B. Production, Sandbox, and Sandbox Preview.
,Rationale: Workday customers are entitled to three primary tenant types:
Production Tenant (the live "gold copy" system of record), Sandbox Tenant (a
weekly-refreshed copy of Production for testing), and Sandbox Preview
Tenant (a copy containing upcoming feature releases for preview testing).
Implementation tenants are charged separately .
Question 2
Which tenant is considered the "gold copy" and is the customer's
source of record?
A. Sandbox Tenant
B. Sandbox Preview Tenant
C. Production Tenant
D. Implementation Tenant
Answer: C. Production Tenant.
Rationale: The Production tenant is considered the "gold copy" and is the
customer's source of record. It contains critical customer data where integrity
and validity are essential. This is the live environment where real business
operations occur .
Question 3
How often is the Sandbox Tenant refreshed with data from the
Production Tenant?
A. Daily
B. Weekly
,C. Monthly
D. Annually
Answer: B. Weekly.
Rationale: The Sandbox tenant is created once a production tenant goes live
and is refreshed on a weekly basis (data and configurations) with current
data from the production tenant. This ensures it is always aligned with the
current deployment .
Question 4
What is the primary purpose of the Sandbox Preview Tenant?
A. To process live business transactions
B. To preview new Workday features before they are released
C. To load legacy data during implementation
D. To provide end-user training
Answer: B. To preview new Workday features before they are released.
Rationale: The Sandbox Preview tenant receives new feature updates ahead
of the production tenant. It is refreshed twice per year, allowing customers to
see what's coming, test new features, and verify integrations before those
updates go live .
Question 5
How often is the Sandbox Preview Tenant refreshed?
A. Weekly
B. Monthly
, C. Twice per year
D. Annually
Answer: C. Twice per year.
Rationale: The Sandbox Preview tenant is refreshed twice per year,
coinciding with Workday's bi-annual feature releases (typically in March and
September). This allows organizations to test new functionality against their
existing data .
Question 6
What is Customer Central in the Workday ecosystem?
A. A production tenant for financial data
B. A management tool that provides visibility and control over deployed
tenants
C. A training environment for end users
D. A legacy data conversion tool
Answer: B. A management tool that provides visibility and control over
deployed tenants.
Rationale: Customer Central is not a tenant which contains Workday data
and features, but rather a management tool that gives visibility and control
over the tenants that are deployed by the customer. It is a single pane of
glass showing the overall deployment to Administrators .
Question 7
What capabilities does Customer Central user accounts have?
