To add a pay component to the Workday-delivered Payroll Register, which task should you use?

• A. Update Payroll Components
• B. Add Component to Register
• C. Maintain Register Configuration task
• D. Configure Register Settings

Answer: (C)

Workday’s Payroll Register shows the data based on its configured layout. To include a specific pay component in the Workday-delivered Payroll Register, you need to adjust the register’s configuration so that that component is included as a column in the register. The task that does this is Maintain Register Configuration, which governs what data appears, in what order, and how it’s labeled in the register.

Updating the actual payroll components defines or changes the component itself, not whether it appears in the register. Configuring register settings in a general sense is broader, but the precise action to add a component to the register is Maintain Register Configuration. After updating the configuration, you’d re-run or re-generate the register to see the new component included.
