Data Flow

  • Publishing a Job’s primary description in the TechWolf Console triggers a real-time push: TechWolf converts the description to Workday rich text and updates the matching Job Profile through Workday’s Submit_Job_Profile web service (Human_Resources, v46.1 ). Only Job Profiles whose Job is known to TechWolf and carries a published TechWolf description are synchronized — TechWolf overwrites those descriptions in Workday with the published version on our side, and leaves every other Job Profile in your tenant as is.
  • A weekly reconciliation pass re-checks every job in scope and re-applies the published description wherever Workday has drifted.
  • Before every update, TechWolf reads the current Workday description Get_Job_Profiles v46.1 and only writes when it differs from the published version — an unchanged description produces no Workday write at all.

What Is Written

Each update submits only the Job_Description field of Job_Profile_Basic_Data. Skill qualifications and all other job-profile fields are separate elements of the Workday payload and are never included. The integration never creates job profiles (an update for a profile that no longer exists in Workday is skipped, not re-created) and never deletes anything — a job removed from TechWolf simply stops being updated.

Business Process Behavior

Every update is a Manage Job Profile business process event initiated by the Integration System User and completed automatically as an external load — each one is recorded in the profile’s process history like any other change.
  • If a Manage Job Profile event started by one of your admins is still pending on a profile, the integration’s update is deflected by Workday. TechWolf records it as skipped and retries on the next cycle — the sync for that profile simply pauses until your event completes or is canceled. TechWolf never cancels or overrides events in your tenant.
  • TechWolf confirms every update by re-reading the profile after the write; an update is only considered successful once the re-read shows the published description.

Recoverability

Every update is an effective-dated Manage Job Profile event, so Workday’s change history retains the prior description of every profile — nothing is destroyed by an update. A Workday admin can rescind or correct any event to reverse it, and your TechWolf team can assist with broader restores on request.
