Employees import
In corporate use of GPS-monitoring sometimes you have to work with large volumes of data. For example when you have to use directories of employees and directories of departments.
When you need to add a large list of employees you can save yourself some time and import it from an Excel file. The data has to be presented in the form of XLS, XLSX or CSV spreadsheet.
In order to start importing from a file:
1. Go to “Tasks” app.
2. Go to “Employees” inset in “Staff”.
3. Click on Create → import from Excel file.
You are going to see “Employees import” window where you can download “File example” and also set up the geocoder(using directory of addresses) and use headers from file. If you want your import table columns to correctly correlate with data in the monitoring system it’s recommended to specify field headers. However, if this is not done, the system will prompt the user to assign this correspondence during the import process.
In the downloaded file you have to fill the following сolumns to import the data:
- Name
- Middle name
- Surname and other
After filling up the file you have to save it on your PC
Download the file to the system
