Case Study: Blackbaud achieves faster financial analysis and a more efficient close with Workday

Blackbaud reduces journal entries by 25% with Workday

Blackbaud, an international software provider dedicated to powering social impact, needed a technology partner to keep pace with its growth and free up time from manual processes to focus on business analysis. To address this challenge, they turned to Workday, implementing Workday Financial Management and Workday Accounting Center after a successful initial experience with Workday Human Capital Management.

Workday implemented a solution that consolidated four financial systems into one, providing a single data view and eliminating integrations between HR and finance. This allowed Blackbaud to reduce manual journal entries by more than 25%, maintain an on-time close with fewer manual steps, and achieve faster analysis of results. The impact, as reported by Workday's customer, was a greater ability to focus on analyzing results to drive improved business decisions.
