The Managers and reporters tab allows admins to assign managers to another user or assign reporters (users who are subordinate to another Fuse user) to a manager via a CSV import. 

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 a maximum of 500 rows of data per CSV file.

CSV files imported in the Managers and reporters tab must contain the following header labels:
