Load Errorspreview
In development – not working yet. Will map each error in a Workday failure report back to the row, column, and value in your EIB and source data.
What it does
Load Errors is in development. The tab and its file pickers are in place, but Analyze does not run yet, so it produces no results.
When it is finished: a Workday EIB upload that fails comes back with a failure report, and Load Errors will parse that report and tie each error back to the specific row, column, and value in the EIB you submitted (and, if provided, your original source data) — so instead of cryptic XPath errors you see exactly which records to fix.
Until then, read the failure report alongside your EIB by hand, and use the Rules tab in Convert/EIB to catch problems before you load.
Planned workflow
- Select the failure report (
FailureReport*.html) Workday gave you. - Select the EIB file you uploaded.
- Optionally select the original source data for extra row context.
- Analyze → review the errors mapped back to your rows and columns.
Gotchas
- Will require both the failure report and the EIB file that was uploaded;
- This is for failed uploads — to *create* the EIB in the first place, use
analysis can't resolve column references without the EIB.
EIB; to *prevent* failures, use the Rules tab in Convert/EIB.
