Answer: (B)

Setting up and loading a Hire EIB in Workday follows a logical progression: start by configuring the Hire EIB upload so Workday knows what to create, then generate the spreadsheet template for that EIB, fill in the template with your actual data, and finally launch the upload by attaching the prepared spreadsheet.

Configuring the Hire EIB upload defines the data payload and the target object, ensuring Workday knows which records to create or update. Once that is in place, you generate the spreadsheet template. The template shows the exact fields and structure required, including any mandatory fields and expected data formats, so you have a clear blueprint to follow. After you have the template, you populate it with your hire data—this is the preparation step where you enter or import the actual values, making sure to meet formatting and validation rules. Finally, you launch the EIB upload by attaching the filled-in spreadsheet; Workday processes the file and applies the data. Other sequences break dependencies, such as generating a template before the EIB is set up or attempting to upload without prepared data, which would lead to errors or no data being loaded.
