WorkDay Tutorial-ACTIVITY —Schedule New hire Integration System

 Scenario: Now that the Employee New Hire Integration has been developed and tested it is time to move it to production. To accomplish this task you will schedule the integration system to run EVERY DAY, Monday – Friday. You will schedule the integration to run within the next 15 minutes (from now) for the first time. It should then run every day at the same time. We will first edit the integration system to output to SFTP.
