Submit Accounting Journal spreadsheet template

Verified as of 2026-11-13

Steps

  1. Sign in to Workday with access to Create EIB and Launch EIB.
  2. Create an inbound EIB. Set Template from Web Service Operation to Submit Accounting Journal.
  3. Open the template model and choose Generate Spreadsheet Template. Keep the generated .xml file.
  4. Upload that template into Meridian’s Export Profile wizard and map Meridian’s columns onto the generated headers. Department maps to Cost Center unless your tenant uses a different worktag.

What you should have

Tenant-specific SpreadsheetML (.xml) for Submit Accounting Journal. Column names and required worktags come from your tenant, not from a shared Workday file.

Gotchas

  • Workday: by file, beta: confirm the first import against your own template.
  • The generated template is unique to the tenant. Do not reuse another company’s spreadsheet.
  • One journal holds at most 1,000 lines. Accounting Journal ID is the Meridian run and must stay unique.
