MyFinancial.desktop (MyFD) is retiring

MyFinancial.desktop (MyFD) is retiring to support UW Finance Transformation (UWFT) and the implementation of Workday Finance. To learn more see the Frequently Asked Questions.

You will still be able to use queries in the future state; however, how you query the data depends on whether you are accessing historical data (Fiscal Year 2023 and earlier) or future state data (Fiscal Year 2024 and later).

Historical Data: Queries in MyFD will remain available until 6/30/2024. During this time, current users will be able to query historical data via the MyFD Query Tool in the same way they always have. Once MyFD shuts down completely, this data will be accessible via the BI Portal, where a subset of MyFD reports is already available.

Future State Data: The preferred method for accessing this data will be via Workday reports. A Financial Desktop dashboard is under development to guide users from MyFD reports to comparable resources in Workday. This dashboard will be available within Workday.

If you are unable to access the data you need via Workday reports, you can query future state data via two new Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW) databases: UWODS and WDFinDataMart. For a high-level introduction to how the EDW is adapting to Finance Transformation, refer to EDW for Finance Transformation. Another helpful resource, which is under development, is the Finance Transformation - Writing Code using the WDFinDataMart and UWODS wiki. This resource provides sample queries for common finance-related questions in the new EDW databases.
