See [Configure reports HR Service Delivery Advanced Integration with Workday](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/OL_9kAyJWMity7uDnQcbAg#awd-config-re "Configure the necessary reports to pull data, such as time offs plans, time off reasons, holiday calendar WID, and work schedule calendar WID, from Workday into the ServiceNow tables.").

## Time off request {#w-timeoff__section_e4l_5cz_rnb}

Request a time off to Workday from Employee Center. For more information, see
[Request a time off](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/fM8FppjeTpMTVwpTI~0dZg "Request a time off to Workday from Employee Center.").

## Limitations {#w-timeoff__section_pvn_w3z_rnb}

* Custom validations that are supported in Workday are not handled in the ServiceNow application. For example, if an organization has a time off plan configured to enter time off quantity in multiples of 2 or 4, such validations are not supported for such time off plans in the ServiceNow application.
* A maximum of 25 days of leave, including holidays and non-working days, can be applied from the ServiceNow application.
