Employee synchronization

How do I import and synchronize employees from files and payroll systems?

When a file has been prepared with the necessary employee data, either from a spreadsheet or a payroll system, it can be uploaded to CleanManager.

NOTE:

If you have not prepared your data, you can read more about how to prepare your employee data for import in this article: Set up employee data for file import

 

 

You can now begin to import your employees in a synchronized process: 

 

 


 

 

Start the synchronization of an employee

In the menu, go to Employees > Employee list
 

Afterward, click on Synchronization

A new window will open, where you can start importing/synchronizing your data

Note:

Is the option to click on Synchronization not available?

If so, you have yet to establish your employee synchronization.

For more information about this, go to the article: Set up employee data for file import

 


 

 

Import employee data (only for file import)

If you need to synchronize your employees with a file import, you must first select a file and a file type from the payroll system you need to synchronize from.

Click on Select a file and choose the file with the employee data that should be synchronized
 
You can also drag your file into the window and let it go in the red field

Setup of an employee/partner

If an employee only exists in the imported file, you can set up a partner in CleanManager. The employee's data will then be imported.

End by clicking on Submit

NOTE:

In most cases, you would keep the same employee number as in the system the data is imported from.

The employee will now be created in the opposite system and at the same time a synchronization connection will be set up

NOTE:

If you cannot see the newly imported employee, then update/refresh the page in your employee list to see your new employee data.

If conflicts arise, go to this section:
Synchronization conflicts /correction of employee data

 

 


 

 

Setup of all employees/partners

When you start using CleanManager, you can import all your employees at once from the same file.

NOTE:

If you cannot see the newly imported employee, then update/refresh the page in your employee list to see your new employee data.

If conflicts arise, go to this section:
Synchronization conflicts /correction of employee data

 

 


 

 

Choose a partner for an employee

If an employee exists in both CleanManager and the imported file, you can pair them up as partners.

NOTE:

If conflicts arise during synchronization, read this section: Synchronization conflicts/correction of employee data

 


 

Synchronization conflicts /correction of employee data

A conflict can arise when employees are partnered up if their data does not match. This conflict must be addressed in order to save the right data. In some cases, the conflicts must be resolved immediately, but they can also arise occasionally if data has been changed in either of the systems. 

number_1.png
Click on Resolve conflict 

14.png

 

number_2.png
Resolve the conflict for the data that does not match between the two systems
 
Select which of the data you want to save (it will be highlighted blue)
 
End by clicking on Submit

number_3.png
The synchronization is now set up
 
When the connection is established, the employee will be moved down the list to the section Synchronized
 
(You can always stop the synchronization and then start it again )

Deactivation of synchronization for an employee

If an employee is supposed to only exist e.g. in your payroll system, or you do not want to import the employee, you are able to exclude those employees from synchronization.

number_1.png
Click on Don't synchronize

number_2.png

The synchronization of the employee is now deactivated
