Xoxoday Empuls supports large group awards through its built-in team recognition functionality, allowing nominators to recognise entire business units, cost centers, project teams, or locations in one action using pre-configured employee metadata.
Selecting recipients by organisational metadata
When a nominator initiates a group award in Xoxoday Empuls, they can filter recipients using pre-configured employee attributes: business unit, cost center, project, or office location. These attributes are typically synced from your HRIS, whether that is Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, Darwinbox, or a custom HR system connected via the Empuls API. The nominator selects a filter and Xoxoday Empuls resolves the matching employee list automatically, without any manual search. For a more ad-hoc approach, Xoxoday Empuls also accepts bulk email entry. A nominator pastes a list of employee addresses, and Xoxoday Empuls matches them against the existing user directory in a single action — no individual lookups required.Customising the award at scale
Group awards in Xoxoday Empuls are not one-size-fits-all. Nominators set the point value per recipient, choose the award type, and write a personalised message that appears on each recipient’s recognition post. Notifications are delivered through the channels your organisation already uses — if your workforce is on Microsoft Teams or Slack, each recipient receives an in-channel alert so the recognition arrives in the flow of work rather than in a separate application.Practical use cases
Consider a Diwali gifting initiative spanning three regional offices. Rather than raising individual nominations, a single group award in Xoxoday Empuls — scoped by location metadata — delivers points to every eligible employee in one action, with a single approval step for the programme manager. The same logic applies to project close-outs, annual performance cycles, and onboarding completion milestones: any moment where a cohort of employees shares a common achievement is a strong candidate for a group award.Audit and compliance
Every group award in Xoxoday Empuls generates a full audit trail covering who raised it, when, how many recipients were included, and the total points issued. This is consistent with Xoxoday Empuls’s data security posture, which includes ISO 27001 certification and SOC 2 Type II attestation, giving HR and finance teams a reliable record for budget reconciliation and compliance reporting.Learn more: Empuls Help Centre — R&R program
