For whom is the constrained proxy feature specifically beneficial?

The constrained proxy feature primarily benefits administrators who need assistance in managing tasks within Workday. This feature allows designated users to act on behalf of another user while limiting the scope of actions they can perform. For administrators, this is particularly valuable because it enables them to delegate specific responsibilities and tasks to other individuals without compromising the entirety of an administrator’s permissions.

The constrained proxy ensures that administrative functions can be carried out efficiently, with control over which actions the proxy can execute, reducing the risk of errors or unauthorized activities. This targeted delegation is crucial in maintaining security and compliance within the organization's data management framework.

While temporary assignments and collaborations may be helpful to any user or specific roles like report builders, the unique constraints placed on the proxy feature are designed with administrators’ need for focused assistance in mind, making their workflows smoother while still safeguarding sensitive information.
