PLEASANTON, CA--(Marketwire - Aug 16, 2011) - Workday Inc., the leader in SaaS-based enterprise solutions for global human resources, payroll, and financial management, today announced that all live Workday customers have moved to the company's latest release. Workday 14 features embedded intelligence and includes enhancements to human capital management (HCM), financial management, and spend management, as well as new capabilities for the higher education industry.
With Workday's embedded intelligence, data is available directly within the context of a business process without the need to navigate elsewhere in the system.

Workday leverages in-memory data management for speed and efficiency to deliver these powerful business analytics.

"Business users can quickly and easily build and embed custom charts, graphs and tables directly into their business processes without requiring the assistance of IT or having to know Java, SQL or understand all the traditional BI jargon."
