Importing employees lets you add a large number of employees and users at once from an Excel or CSV file, instead of adding each employee from the form. It is usually used when starting to work on the system or moving employee data from another system.<\/p>\n

This guide explains preparing the file, the accepted values in each column, the import steps, what the system creates afterward, and the error messages and their solutions.<\/p>\n
