If you have a large list of employees, you can import them to Sling using an existing XLS or CSV file. To get a template of the data fields we support and helpful tips, click here.
Go to Dashboard > Employees and click the Add employee button, then click Import list from CSV file.
You can browse for the file or drag and drop it into the box with the dotted outline.
The next step allows you to label the columns in your file. The data that can be imported is limited to:
Full name - OR -

Last name
Employee ID
Email address
Phone number
Locations
Positions
Groups
Hire date

You can also choose whether to send the invitations at the same time or delay inviting your employees until later.
Finish by clicking the Import employees button and they will be uploaded to your employee roster within Sling.
