IMPORTANT NOTE: Workflows are temporarily deactivated during the data upload process into the Subscribe-HR System so that the data being uploaded without triggered any active workflows.
Field Name | Description |
Lookup Data Management | The “Lookup Table Data” contains the Code Library of all data used/available in the Free Trial and within the Subscribe-HR System.

Export Template (Supporting Data) | There are two options. Create New Records and Update Existing Record. This is for both Employee Data and Supporting Data.
Update Existing Records. There is a limit of 500 Records for the export. If there are more than 500 records, you need to include a filter which is located at the bottom of the screen, to allow for exporting specific records which will add up to less than 500. The Update Existing Records option works in the same way as Create New Records, the difference being that when you "Export", the template that is exported, will export the data in the Data Base for those records. Which is why there is a data limit for 500, otherwise it would take too long for the system to export the records. NOTE. CODES and CODE LIBRARY CAN BE USED in the same way as Create New and Update Supporting Information and Employee Information. Create New Code Libraries and Update Existing Code Libraries. These are Supporting Data Options. Making Changes in the Template. Once you Export the Template, and then access it via you desktop/laptop, you can then make the changes in the XLS based on how you want to update the Data. Once this is done go to the Import (Supporting or Employee) Data option in the Data Manager Widget to perform the upload. See instructions below. Please note when you "Export the Template" for this option: Update Existing Records, there will be an ID field in the XLS. This ID field needs to remain, because the system need the ID to know which records have been updated. Do no change or remove this ID. You will also see the ID in the Preview, once the Data has been uploaded.
Before you get started on uploading Supporting Data, please note that the correct process for uploading data into the systems is as follows:
Users are requested to complete these steps in the order specified below or the process will not work. Outlined in this section is the format and export the “Export Template – Supporting Data” step. For the remaining steps, see the relevant section below. To format the Supporting Data spreadsheet/s, click on “Export Template (Supporting Data)” and specify the following information:
Users will need to create and export a formatted spreadsheet for each of the following 'Supporting' data types one at a time and specifically in the following order if those Supporting data types are required:
As an example, to create and export a spreadsheet for 'Locations' follow these steps:
Once the Locations template has been exported, repeat this process for Jobs, Company Property, Leave settings, Codes and Code Library. Once data has been added to these spreadsheets and they are complete, they will then need to be uploaded back into the System in the next step: Upload Template – Supporting Data. If you do not format, fill and upload data for ALL FOUR Supporting data types BEFORE uploading Employee data in the next step (if the Employee data is predicated on any of the Supporting data types), the Employee data upload process may not work. IMPORTANT NOTES:
|
Upload Template (Supporting Data) | The Upload Template creator for “Support” related information enables Users to upload correctly formatted bulk 'Supporting' data for the fields and records specified in the previous step (instead of having to input the data manually, one record/field at a time).
To upload the Supporting Data spreadsheet, click on “Upload Template (Supporting Data)” and specify the type of data you want to import from the dropdown list:
NOTE. CODES and CODE LIBRARY CAN BE USED in the same way as Create New and Update Supporting Information and Employee Information. Create New Code Libraries and Update Existing Code Libraries. These are Supporting Information options. ‘Preview’ runs a validation process on the data in the spreadsheet. If there are any errors in the spreadsheet, the type of error will be identified in the top row of the data table. The top row of the table you will see a list of colour coded fields and data types s well as a calculation of the number of errors (if any) for that data/field type. If there is an error you can click on the name of the error type (e.g. mandatory field, email address) and this will show only/all the row/s in the spreadsheet that contain that validation error type. The data with the error will also be highlighted in the colour associated with the error type (for example, a Boolean Value error will be purple). You can then click on ‘Clear Filter’ next to the name of the error type to clear those rows and return to an ‘all rows’ view. Validation error types are colour coded in the following manner:
In the table below the top validation errors row, you will see all the data (columns and rows) being imported into the System. Any validation errors will appear in the colour related to the type of validation error listed above. To edit/fix data issues, click on the green ‘Edit’ button for the row in which the error occurs, then once you've corrected the cell with the error in it, click the Orange ‘Review’ button to check and complete. Users can also ‘Delete’ data rows by clicking on ‘Delete.’ When all data is correct and has been validated, you will see an orange bar across the top of the table that indicates that your data is ready to upload and the ‘Upload Now’ button appears at the bottom of the data table. Click ‘Upload Now’ to upload data. NOTE: the data upload process takes a few minutes to complete. DO NOT leave the page, go to another tab, move to another App or browser window, or close the tab. Doing so may cancel the data upload process. Allow the upload process to run and complete itself before taking any further steps (you will see a green progress bar that indicates progress and confirms when the data Upload process is complete. If the data Upload process works without error, you will see a Data Table with no errors and you can click ‘Finish’ to complete the process.

Instead of having to set up this information manually, one at a time, the export/import process for Employee data makes it possible for Users to upload data via these Tools. Employee Data is classified as any type of data that needs to be uploaded into the system that is related directly to an Employee record. Please note that to upload Employee Job data (for example), you first need to upload Jobs (which is classified as 'Supporting' data - see previous 'Support' data export/upload step) into the System (so that the Job types that Employees might hold, and to which they will be assigned are already present in the System).
Users will need to create and export a formatted spreadsheet for each of the following 'Employee' data types one at a time and specifically in the following order if those Employee data types are required:
To create and export a spreadsheet for 'Employee Data' follow these steps:
Once the Employee template is complete, repeat this process for all the other Employee related options listed above. Once data has been added to these spreadsheets and they are complete, they will then need to be uploaded back into the System in the next step: Upload Template – Employee Data. IMPORTANT NOTES:

All Performance Review Cycle settings are located in the Performance Management or the Surveys Widgets on the Activation Hub. The settings that need to be configured prior to using Performance Management are:
Review Method - Specify if your Performance Review method is based on ‘Start Date’ (Employees complete their Performance Reviews annually based on their start date), or ‘Cycles’ (all Employees starting their Performance Reviews at the same time).
In order for the selected ‘Review Method’ to work (and for a Performance Review Cycle to be ‘activated’ or ‘sent’ to Employees), all of the following items need to also have been configured/completed in the System first.
Rating Scales - Configure/create all the ‘Rating scales’ that will be used for conducting and/or scoring the Performance Reviews.
Performance Review Forms - Configure/create the Performance Review Form/s to be used in the Performance Review Cycle.
Performance Review Cycles - Configure/create the Performance Review Workflow (including all the steps required to complete the Performance Review). Subscribe-HR’s Standard Performance Review Cycle template is available for all Customers to use ‘out-of-the-box.’
Business Objectives Library (Mission) - Configure/create the ‘Business Objectives’ that will be used for conducting Performance Reviews. Business Objectives are stand-alone (not linked to Goals).
Skills Library - Configure/create the ‘Skills’ that will be assessed in Performance Reviews. Skills assigned to Employees must refer to entries in the Skills library – they cannot be free text. Entries in the Skills library consist of:
- Skill Type (selected from the Performance Skill Types Code Library).
- Skill Name.
Goals Library - Configure/create the ‘Goals’ that will be assessed in Performance Reviews. Entries in the Goals library serve as suggestions; when Goals are defined for an Employee, they can use a Goal Name directly from the library, use a modified version of one, or be free text that doesn’t refer to any library entry. Entries in the Goals library consist of:
- Business Objective (selected from the Business Objectives library).
- Goal Type (selected from the Performance Goal Types Code Library).
- Goal Name.
Values Library - Configure/create the ‘Values’ that will be assessed in Performance Reviews. Note Values are automatically included in the assessment (Ratings/Comments) Step if they have been set up the System. This is because they are relevant business wide (and don’t need to be assigned individually). Behaviours Library - Configure/create the ‘Behaviours’ that will be assessed in Performance Reviews. Email Templates - Configure all ‘Performance’ related Email Correspondence templates related to Performance Reviews. These emails will be sent to Employees throughout their Performance Review. Talent Cubes (optional) - Set up Talent Cubes to identify Employees with specific attributes relating to question responses in the Performance Review and/or Rating Scales. Example: Include a ‘Potential’ field in the ‘Review Canvas’ and store Employees in a Talent Cube based on their ‘Potential’ (which has been recorded by their Manager). Ratings/Scores Formula - The ‘Performance Score’ is an overall ‘average’ based on each of the Categories below:
- All Skills rated in the Performance Review ‘assessment’ Step:
- Overall/Skills average used to create overall Performance Score.
- All Values rated in the Performance Review ‘assessment’ Step:
- Overall/Values average used to create overall Performance Score.
- All Goals rated in the Performance Review ‘assessment’ Step:
- Overall/Goals average used to create overall Performance Score.
- All Behaviours rated in the Performance Review ‘assessment’ Step:
- Overall/Behaviours average used to create overall Performance Score.
- Per the above, the methodology used for calculating scoring in Subscribe-HR is to use an average applied to each Category (Skills, Values, Goals, Behaviours). These averages are then used to calculate a total/overall ‘Performance Review Score’ (which is the average of the averages of each of the Categories included/rated within the Performance Review Cycle (weightings are not applied).
- Please note that only the Categories included for definition and assessment in the Performance Review will be used to calculate the overall Performance Review Score.
- The Overall Performance Review Score is also calculated based on the ‘Scoring Method’ selected on the Performance Review/Cycle that is sent to Employees. The standard/default option is the ‘Average of Manager’ Scores (only).
The Final/Overall Score is displayed to two decimal places and is available/visible in the following locations (in addition to the ‘Advanced Reports’):
- In the ‘Performance Score’ section of the ‘Talent Profile Widget’ (the Overall Performance Review Score will only appear here after the Review/Cycle has been completed by all participants. It will not appear here if/when the final date/full Review/Cycle timeframe (in months and days) has been completed.
- This Performance Score also feeds into the Remuneration Modelling Tool.
- The Performance Score is also available via the ‘View Review Report’ Action relating to an individual Employee’s Performance Review. The ‘View Review Report’ Action is available to Managers and People & Culture Users on their respective Dashboards (it is not available to Employees on their My Info Dashboard). If the Review is not yet complete, the Score shown in this report will not be final and is subject to change depending on later interaction with the Review.
