Workday serves as BYU–Hawaii’s enterprise system for Human Resources, Payroll, Finance, and Student Services—providing a fully integrated platform for students, staff, and faculty.

The university went live with Workday Student for Fall 2026. Admissions began using Workday Student in March 2026, followed by Student Records and Registration in May 2026, enabling students to manage their academic information and enrollment within Workday. Financial Aid went live in June 2026, followed by Student Financials in July 2026. With all workstreams now live, Workday provides a unified platform for student administrative functions across the university.
