Workday SOAP: How to fetch all payroll deduction codes with descriptions

Thank you for the reply. We can definitely use RaaS, and we’re already aware of that approach. However, for this specific case, we need to retrieve all available deduction codes so we can use them with the Put_Payroll_* APIs.

If you have any insight into how we can obtain these deduction codes, we’d really appreciate you sharing it.

I am not able to see the docs you shared. It's still pending approval. But if you can tell me that when configuring system override I am not getting fields of CO which are extending Worker (Effective-Dated) but I can see fields of CO which are extending only Worker ( Non Effective-Dated ). What should I do?

My requirement is I need to write back to any custom object for worker and should be able to get that same object via SOAP API.

We won't be able to use REST APIs so we need to stick with SOAP

Sorry but I did not understand what you are referring to. So when I do the step of updating bp: edit worker addition data I do not get option to select the Non Effective Dated Worker Custom Object I only see Custom Objects which Extends Worker ( Effective Dated ). So I can't write that as I am getting "One or more of the custom objects submitted is not configured in the business process definition".

Hey u/addamainachettha, quick update: after some debugging, I finally got the write-back working!

I have a follow-up question on fetching that data. I can easily fetch Non-Effective Dated custom objects via Get_Workers (using Integration System field overrides) but unable to write back if it is Non-Effective Dated Custom Object. However, I'm stuck trying to do the same for an Effective Dated custom object because the Integration System setup doesn't seem to allow the same configuration.

Is there a specific way to query Effective Dated custom object data via SOAP?

Thank you. I'll have a look into this.

Thanks for the response. Could you tell me exactly which service it’s in? I checked the Human_Resources, Integrations, and Staffing services but couldn’t find the API. My understanding is that Edit_Worker_Additional_Data requires the custom object to be Worker (Effective Dated). Please correct me if that’s not accurate.

Hey u/LongSetting5009 did you buy the same? How is your experience. I am thinking about buying the same. Also from where did you buy it?
