Setting up Employee Temporary Team Imports

To set up an Employee Temporary Team Import:

  1. Create the CSV text file.

    You must create the Employee Temporary Team Import CSV file according to the field specification listed in Employee Temporary Team Import Interface field specification.

  2. Specify this information to create a scheduled task in the Job Scheduler:
    Task Type
    Import Task
    Import Task Parameters: Interface Type
    EMPLOYEE TEMPORARY TEAM IMPORT
    Import Task Parameters: Transformer Class Name
    Select the Use Default Transformer check box unless using a custom transformer class.
  3. Specify this information to create a scheduled task in the Job Scheduler:
    Task Type
    Interface Task
    Interface Task Parameters: Interface Type
    EMPLOYEE TEMPORARY TEAM IMPORT
    Interface Task Parameters: EXT_CODE should be unique when adding
    This option determines the behavior when a temporary team assignment is added with the same EXT_CODE value as an existing team assignment.

    When this option is selected, the dates for the existing team assignments are adjusted so that the dates for the specified EXT_CODE do not overlap for any team. This is the default.

    Note: This behavior is only applicable to the ADD action.

    For example, assume the employee has this team assignment:

    Employee Team Name Start Date End Date EXT_CODE
    Justin TEAMA 01/01/1900 01/01/3000 OU-1

    Assume the import record contains this information:

    Employee Team Name Start Date End Date Action EXT_CODE
    Justin TEAMB 08/01/2021 09/01/2021 ADD OU-1

    After the import is finished, these team assignments are applied:

    Employee Team Name Start Date End Date EXT_CODE
    Justin TEAMA 01/01/1900 07/31/2021 OU-1
    Justin TEAMB 08/01/2021 09/01/2021 OU-1
    Justin TEAMA 09/02/2021 01/01/3000 OU-1
    Note: With this setting, the EXT_CODE field cannot be null or empty in the import file.

    When this option is cleared, the dates for the existing team assignments are not adjusted. With this setting, the dates for the specified EXT_CODE can overlap across teams.
