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.
