Workday Rising brought together business leaders and IT professionals from around the globe. Packed with pivotal announcements, insightful keynotes, and forward-thinking discussions, it served as a platform for Workday to unveil its latest innovations and partnerships aimed at shaping the future of work.
Workday Extend
Among the announcements was Workday Extend—a suite of application development capabilities designed to help businesses do more with their data. Workday Extend provides tools like XpressO, a proprietary programming language for managing business logic and data within the Workday object model, and REST, SOAP, and custom APIs for sourcing external data.
While these capabilities are powerful, Workday Extend is about extending what is within the Workday platform. The goal of Extend is to enable businesses to develop custom applications that leverage Workday’s platform. However, a critical component to doing this successfully is a foundation to provide data to the larger Workday platform in supporting these advanced capabilities.
The missing link: a data foundation
This is where Incorta comes in. As Workday’s Adaptive partner, Incorta seamlessly integrates with Workday to provide the best data foundation. Incorta’s advanced data connectors allow organizations to access detailed data from various sources like POS, CRM, GL, inventory, and operational systems.
With Incorta, users can easily:
- Drill into sub-ledger details to investigate variances and identify drivers of financial impact.
- Access live, detailed operational data to enable real-time analytics and GenAI forecasts.
- Leverage powerful blueprints and data engines to crosswalk systems and present data in a usable format without losing fidelity or agility.
Bridging the gap
Incorta serves as the bridge between Workday Extend’s powerful application development capabilities and the need for a comprehensive data platform. This joint solution enhances the user experience by allowing non-technical users to analyze data and make informed decisions.
With Incorta with Workday Extend, you can help your organization:
- Improve Reporting and Analytics: With Incorta’s intelligent data foundation, users can transform raw data into meaningful insights, improving their reporting and analytics capabilities.

Workday Extend is a significant step forward in helping organizations do more with their data, but its effectiveness is limited without a solid data foundation. Incorta bridges this gap, providing the necessary infrastructure for advanced data analytics and reporting.
