ESS Workday Scenarios — Declarative Agent (DA)

This folder contains sample Declarative Agent (DA) assets for Workday-backed Employee Self-Service scenarios. Use these as a starting point when authoring or customizing a Workday Declarative Agent in Microsoft Copilot Studio.

Looking for the Custom Engine Agent variant? See ../WorkdayCustomEngineAgent/.

Folder layout

Folder	Description
Employee/	Self-service scenarios for the requesting employee (vacation balance, time-off requests, profile, contact info, education, government IDs, dependents, emergency contacts, peer feedback, etc.).
Manager/	Scenarios for managers acting on their direct reports (company code, cost center, job taxonomy, service anniversary, time in position).

Usage notes

• Each scenario folder contains the declarative assets needed to enable that scenario in your Workday Declarative Agent.
• Import the scenario into your Copilot Studio Declarative Agent and update any parameter bindings (employee id, manager org id, effective date, etc.) to match your runtime context.
• Sample prompts inside each scenario folder can be reused as trigger queries for validation.
