Uploading Staff Data via Bulk Update

Getting Started

Once you've downloaded the template (whether it's the Simple template or Comprehensive template), the first step will be to open that file.

Next, enter the staff data in that you want to upload. This can either be entered in manually or copied from another file (eg a spreadsheet list of your staff).

Mandatory fields

The mandatory fields that must be entered are:

  • First name

  • Last name

  • Email (must be unique from all other staff on your flaik site)

  • Primary discipline.

Once you've added in all the staff details, click save the file.

Modifying the spreadsheet

Note: do not do any of the following:

  • Adding columns

  • Rearranging columns

  • Renaming columns

Unused columns can be deleted but the recommendation is to not delete them.

Uploading

Next, go back to you flaik website and click on browse to upload.

Find the file that you just saved and click Open. You can also drag-and-drop if that's more fun.

Your file will appear in the center box. Now click Upload.

Verification Stage

Once you hit Upload, you'll see a summary screen with all the columns and rows you're updating. If there are any errors with the file, they will be highlighted in red. You will need to correct these errors prior to saving. If there are no errors, the blue save button will be available and you can click save and upload your staff.

That's it! You've finished uploading your staff into flaik and they are now available in Staff Management.
