Managers and reporters tab

The Managers and reporters tab allows admins to update manager-reportee relationships using a CSV, such as assigning users to a new manager by importing a CSV.

Alternatively, you can also assign managers to new users or update the manager of existing users when you import user data to Fuse in the Bulk Imports of users tab. Simply add or update the manager’s email address in the Managers column of the CSV:

Important information

  • You can only upload CSV files when importing data - attempting to import other file formats will cause the import to fail.

  • UFT-8 encoded CSV files are not supported when assigning managers and reportees via CSV - you must use a standard CSV file.

  • Any mandatory CSV headers must be formatted correctly, as stated in the documentation and accompanying examples, otherwise the import will fail. For example, if a header contains extra characters, incorrect spacing or is missing entirely from the CSV, the import will fail.

  • It is recommended that you import 500 rows of data per CSV file.

When assigning a manager to a user/new reportee, the CSV file must be formatted in the following way:
