Importing location groups

To start a new file import, go to Core HR > Account data > Import data and click Create new.
Open the Type dropdown list and select ‘location groups’. This name may change depending on your chosen terminology for locations.
The purple bar under the file selection will then update to include a ‘Click here’ link for downloading a CSV template that includes all the fields necessary to get importing.
More general information on preparing import files can be found in Importing data overview.

location group import requirements

The import will require a unique ID for the group, a name and a location group type. You can then optionally include a comma separated list of location IDs to include in that group.
location Group Types will need to be set up first in Settings > Company Settings > Core HR under ‘Groupings’.
Once you have imported the data successfully, it will show up and can be edited under Core HR > Organisation Structure > location Groups.
