Xoxoday Empuls supports centralized bulk uploading of recognitions by HR administrators for any configured recognition program, using pre-defined CSV or Excel templates and direct HRMS data imports.
Xoxoday Empuls gives HR administrators a centralized way to upload recognitions in bulk for any configured recognition program. Instead of entering each recognition individually, admins can prepare recognitions offline using a pre-defined template and import them in a single operation — saving significant time and reducing the risk of manual entry errors at scale.
The bulk upload process supports standard file formats including CSV and Excel. Xoxoday Empuls provides pre-defined templates that structure the required fields — such as recipient, program, message, and award value — so admins populate the sheet and upload without any custom configuration. This makes it straightforward for HR teams to handle large volumes consistently and quickly, regardless of organisation size.
This capability is especially valuable for high-volume or time-sensitive recognition events. Common use cases include festival gifting campaigns, company anniversary recognitions, long-service awards, and organisation-wide performance milestones. For example, when running a year-end recognition campaign across hundreds of employees simultaneously, an HR admin can prepare the full recipient list in Excel, upload it centrally through Xoxoday Empuls, and distribute awards in one action rather than processing each recognition manually.
Xoxoday Empuls also supports data imports drawn directly from HRMS platforms such as Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, and Darwinbox. When recognition eligibility or recipient lists are already maintained in your HRMS, admins can channel that data into Xoxoday Empuls without re-entering it from scratch. This is particularly useful for milestone programs where service anniversaries or eligibility criteria are owned by the HRMS — the import ensures accuracy and consistency across both systems.
Bulk upload access is scoped to administrators, keeping the process auditable and controlled. Xoxoday Empuls validates uploaded data before finalizing and flags errors — such as unrecognised employee IDs or missing required fields — so admins can correct them before recognitions are published. This built-in review step protects data quality even across large-scale campaigns.
