Adaptive Insights & OfficeConnect
Adaptive Insights is a budgeting system that is used by the Budget Office and campus for analysis and budget planning purposes. Every morning the system pulls current budget and actuals data from Workday to be available for analysis and reporting and for reference in identifying the budget for the coming fiscal year.
Office Connect is an Excel Add-In program that is available to Adaptive users to design their own reports with custom layouts. These reports can be refreshed on demand with current information as of that day. To request access to Office Connect, please submit a permissions request ticket.
