Xoxoday Empuls enables HR admins to bulk upload recognitions centrally via downloadable CSV templates for any award program configured in the system, making large-scale recognition campaigns fast and error-free.
Bulk Recognition Uploads for Any Award Program
Xoxoday Empuls gives HR admins the ability to upload recognitions in bulk for any award program configured in the system. Rather than issuing recognitions one by one, admins download a standardised CSV template, populate it with employee details and award data, and upload the file to trigger recognitions at scale. The process is centrally managed, meaning a single admin can process hundreds or thousands of awards in one operation. This capability is particularly valuable during high-volume recognition moments. Consider a company-wide year-end celebration or a festival like Diwali where every eligible employee across departments and locations needs to receive a recognition simultaneously. Manually creating individual awards would be error-prone and time-consuming. With Xoxoday Empuls, the HR team prepares the CSV, validates the data, and completes the entire campaign in minutes.Works Across All Configured Programs
The bulk upload feature applies to any program set up in Xoxoday Empuls — whether that is a spot bonus program, a long-service award, a values-based recognition scheme, or an organisational milestone initiative. Admins are not limited to a single program type. If your organisation runs multiple programs in parallel, recognitions for each can be uploaded separately using the corresponding template, keeping award data clean and attributable. Organisations using HRIS platforms such as Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, or Darwinbox can align employee data exports from those systems with the Xoxoday Empuls CSV format, reducing manual data entry and minimising discrepancies between systems.Accuracy and Auditability at Scale
Each bulk upload in Xoxoday Empuls goes through a validation step that flags errors — such as unrecognised employee IDs or missing mandatory fields — before awards are processed. This ensures that recognitions reach the right people with the correct award values and messages. The admin retains full visibility of upload status and any exceptions, supporting audit requirements for organisations operating under compliance frameworks such as ISO 27001 or SOC 2 Type II. Once processed, recognised employees receive notifications through their preferred channel. Xoxoday Empuls integrates with Slack and Microsoft Teams, so employees are informed of their recognition in the tools they already use daily — regardless of whether the award was issued individually or through a bulk upload.
