Onboard employees in bulk
Goal
Import multiple employees and their portal logins at once, typically during initial go-live or after a reorganization.
Option A - Employees already exist in Business Central
Use this when employees have existing Business Central Employee cards and just need TEM enabled.
- From Truvio Expense Management - Overview, select Employees
- Click Add Multiple from the Expense Management tab in the page header
- In the Select Users to Add to TEM window, for each employee:
- Confirm or set the Email
- Confirm or create the AppsForDynamics365 login
- Assign an Approver
- Check the Selected checkbox
- Click Add TEM to Selected and confirm
Option B - Employees do not yet exist in Business Central
Use the Copilot import to create employees from a payroll export or CSV file.
- From Truvio Expense Management - Overview, select Employees
- Click Copilot (or the import action) and attach your Excel or CSV file
- Copilot analyzes the file and maps columns to employee fields - review the suggested mapping
- If the mapping is wrong, type a correction prompt (e.g. "use the first two letters of first name + last name as employee number") and click Regenerate
- Review the proposed employee records and click Add Employees
Copilot accepts a simple payroll export. For example:
Employee No;Name;Email;Bank reg. No;Bank Account
1;John P. Doe;john@company.com;1233;87119212
9;Mary Poppins;mary@company.com;8211;721231
Portal logins can also be bulk-imported independently of employees - see Login list page.
After import
Run the additional employee setup for each imported employee to set reimbursement fields (Alt. No. or Vendor No.) where required. See Add a new employee.
