I am posting this in the community in hopes that someone else who has done a Workday integration has also encountered this issue and has advice on how to deal with it.

We had similar use case in our environment where we faced same issue. But in our case both contractor and employee records come as active because we employee record will be created before hand. So in full import we use to get contractor record and in future hire import we use to get employee record.
Because of that User data use to flip b/w Employee vs contractor. Which use to trigger mover certification for such users on each aggregation.
We handled this use case using in-line preprocessor where we implemented a logic to skip employee record until hire date becomes current.

This is a great idea and likely will work for us. Meeting with our Workday integration team to discuss. If this is a solution, I'll come back and mark with full details.

Marked this as the solution. We were able to identify some patterns in the data coming from Workday that indicates this condition and we used user-preprocessing to drop the undesired data during import.

Prefer creating separate connection for employees & contractors

I've done this on a past deployment at a different employer, but this won't work in this environment. The reason being that in Workday during a contingent/contractor conversion to hire/employee scenario, or vice versa, the user will keep the same username correlating to one user record in Saviynt. With different connections for employees and contractors we could separate when we run the imports and different logic for each and so on. However, we'd simply be recreating the same problem a different way because the end result is the same record being updated at incorrect intervals in Saviynt due to the way Workday API presents the data at the source.
