Mass User Invitation
This is where administrators can invite multiple users by uploading a file. The Mass Invitation Upload form is accessed from the Upload File tab on the User Invitation screen.
- First, select the Staff Type by choosing either Regular Staff or Substitute Staff.
- Upload a file by dragging and dropping it into the drop zone, or by clicking the
Select File button. Accepted file types are .csv, .xls, and .xlsx.
- The file should contain columns for First Name, Last Name, Email, Last 4 SSN, Birth Date, and Employee #.
- Once a file is uploaded, the File Contents section will display the parsed rows in a grid. Review the data to ensure it is correct before proceeding.
- Select the users you wish to invite using the checkboxes in the grid. You can use the header checkbox to select all users at once.
- Click the Invite button to send invitations to all selected users.
File Format Specification
The uploaded file (.csv, .xls, or .xlsx) must contain a header row. Column names are flexible — the system recognizes several aliases for each field.
| Column | Required | Column Heading Aliases |
|---|---|---|
| First Name | Yes | FirstName, First Name, First_Name, First, fname |
| Last Name | Yes | LastName, Last Name, Last_Name, Last, lname |
| Yes | Email, E-Mail, Email Address, Address, Mailto |
|
| Birth Date | No | BirthDate, Birthday, Birth Date, DOB, Date of Birth, Birth_Date, Date_Of_Birth |
| Last 4 SSN | No | LastFourDigitsOfSSN, Last Four Digits of SSN, Last Four Digits of Social Security Number, SSN, SS#, SSN_Last_4, SSN4, Last Four Of SSN |
| Employee # | No | PayrollEmployeeId, Payroll Employee Id, Employee Id, EmployeeId, EmpId, Emp Id, Employee_Number, Emp_No, StaffId, Staff Id , Staff ID |
- The Last 4 SSN field must be exactly 4 numeric digits. Values with fewer digits will be padded with leading zeros (e.g.,
12becomes0012). - The Employee # column label may vary depending on the payroll system configured for the client.
- The system will ignore any additional columns beyond those specified above.
- Column headers must match one of the accepted aliases for each required field, or may be entirely upper or lower case. Mixed case is not supported except as shown above.
- The header names may be in any order, but all required columns must be present for the file to be processed successfully.
- If any required columns are missing or if the file format is invalid, an error message will be displayed prompting the user to correct the issue before proceeding with the invitations.
