Overview
Custom Fields are user created fields which are not found in Talexio's default fields. These can be a variety of input types that can be placed on the Employee's Details or in the Employee's Employment Position.
This article explains how Custom Fields created can be updated in bulk using the employee list upload template.
Permissions
To access the Employee List template, you will need the Manage All Employee Data permission. This needs to be set over the employee who you will be updating.
Bulk Updating Custom Fields
If you have any Custom Fields set in the employee's details page, you may upload the contents of each employee's custom fields in bulk too. The bulk upload template can be found by going to People > 3 dot menu > Employee List.
After downloading the template, refer to the last tab in the template to see the list of Custom Fields created:
To upload the custom field data of your employees, simply copy the names of the custom fields (including the square brackets "[ ]") found in this tab and paste it as the last column header in the first tab (employees).
Then populate the data under the fields for the relevant employee. The employee is determined by the EMPLOYEE_CODE column.
After doing so, save the template and upload it to Talexio from the same location it was downloaded from.
