Pro-Tips & Guardrails

Note: The system first validates the uploaded data. Only records that pass validation can be inserted or updated. Invalid records will be rejected, requiring you to correct and re-upload them.
Pro-Tip: Ensure all mandatory fields like First Name, Last Name, Email, and at least one product access (Travel or Expense) are correctly filled. Employee IDs and Emails must be unique within your organization.

When filling the template, keep the following in mind:

  • Product Access: For Travel and Expense, type exactly 'Yes' or 'No'. At least one must be 'Yes'.
  • Roles: For 'Travel Role', choose 'Traveler', 'Admin', or 'Finance Admin'. For 'Expense Role', choose 'Submitter', 'Admin', or 'Finance Admin'. If left empty, 'Traveler' and 'Submitter' are assigned by default, respectively.
  • Approvers: Enter the email of an existing user, or a new user included in the same bulk upload file. Approvers must have the necessary product access.
  • Organizational Units: For fields like Department, Entity, Business Unit, and Employee Level, use the exact names configured in your ITILITE account. If your departments are not set up, you can enter 'NA' for Department and update it later.
  • Partial Success: If some rows in your file contain errors, the valid users will still be created or updated, while only the invalid ones will be rejected.
  • Invitation email: You can choose to send a welcome/ invitation email

Please note:

  • Membership or loyalty program details cannot be uploaded in bulk as part of adding users.
