In Workday HCM, business process templates define the foundational structure of a business process, including the types of steps that are available to be configured. When administrators need to determine which action steps—such as approvals, To Do steps, notifications, integrations, or subprocesses—can be added to a specific business process, the correct Workday-delivered report to use is View Business Process Template.
The View Business Process Template report displays the delivered template for a given business process and outlines all supported step types and actions that Workday allows for that process. Because templates are system-delivered and cannot be modified, this report serves as the authoritative reference for understanding what configuration options are available before adding or modifying steps in a business process definition.
The other options do not fulfill this purpose. Business Process Security Policy for Functional Area and Domain Security Policies for Functional Area focus on security access and permissions, not step availability. Business Process Configuration Options is used to identify which business process definition applies to specific organizations, not which step types can be added.
From a Workday Pro HCM best-practice perspective, administrators should always consult the View Business Process Template report before designing or troubleshooting business process configurations. This ensures that changes align with Workday’s delivered framework and prevents configuration errors caused by attempting to add unsupported step types.
Therefore, the correct and Workday-verified answer is View Business Process Template, as it identifies which action steps can be added to a business process.
