AttendanceBot allows administrators to update employee profile information in bulk using the People>> Import Team Data section of the dashboard. This saves time and improves accuracy when first configuring your team.

Since "Import Team Data" serves a dual import/export purpose, you can download to export and view personnel data, then after editing/repopulating employees details on the spreadsheet you can upload file to update AttendanceBot in bulk. 

When first setting up your team, the most critical field to populate is manager email. Additional popular fields to complete are joining date, date of birth, department, and office, though infinite custom fields are possible once created from the personnel >> custom field menu.

Important note - Do not add any rows or columns to the excel file downloaded from the dashboard as you are unable to create new fields using export/import. For this you can use the custom fields menu mentioned above.
