Custom table items can be registered by importing files.
This section describes how to create and upload the imported data.
Please contact us if you would like to use the "Custom tables" feature in the future.
We assume that you will use file import in the following cases
To upload new data
This may be the first time you have started using a custom tables and are importing data, or you may be importing data for an employee for whom you did not previously have registration data.
To upload changed data
This is the case, for example, when you already have employee registration data, but you want to import data to change the content.
To upload additional unregistered item data
This is used when there is already registered data, but additional data is to be imported only for unregistered areas.
In all of the above cases, first prepare the template for import and then upload it to Workcloud.
