How to Import Employee Absences via Third-Party

This screen is used to run a background process that imports employee absences. This background process uses the rules created in a user-defined import profile, in order to know how to import data in the file to be imported. Two parameters need to be passed to the process, the Batch number and the Import Profile Code.

Use the following steps to Import Employee Absences via Third-Party:

          1. Click on Absence Management

          2. Click on Employee Absence Import Process

          3. Select a Profile Code value

          4. Select a Transaction Status value

          5. Select a Use Default File?  value (i.e Yes)

                              IF Selected Yes, Select a Import File location

          6. Select a Submit Mode value

                              Selecting 'Trial' mode will generate a test document of all updated records when submitted, but will not actually update the records within the database until submitted in 'Update' Mode.

          7. Click on the Submit button to Import the file. (The file will be imported from the default logfile location)
