How many Exemptions are allowed on Sandbox?

Sandbox Refresh Exemptions

Workday allows up to two consecutive exemptions for refreshing Sandbox. 

What is Refresh Exemption ?

    Requesting a Sandbox Refresh Exemption simply means that the data and configurations aren't refreshed from Production that week.   

Where can we request the exemption ?

    Workday Customer Central. Navigation:

        Tenant Management > Create Tenant Request

Who can request for the exemption ?

    Exemptions can be requested by your organization's NSC (Named support contact) [usually the owners of the product in your organization] 


Points to Ponder:

  • Every week Friday PST evening there will be a scheduled refresh activity in Sandbox. i.e. PROD data will be copied to SBX.
  • You can't request a Sandbox refresh exemption prior to the Feature Release.
  • Ad hoc Sandbox tenant refresh requests outside of our Weekly Service Update are not entertained.
