HDL Support for Bulk Recognitions

You can now use HDL (HCM Data Loader) support for recognitions, allowing bulk creation of recognitions. HCM Data Loader is a powerful tool for bulk-loading and maintaining data. It supports file-based upload of business objects, components, and component attributes using a flexible, delimited file.

A new business object, Celebration, has been added under HCM Celebrate. This initial release supports only recognitions that don’t include points. HDL support for awards will be added in the future.

  1. Prepare the template file (Celebration.dat).  This file contains all the supported attributes for Celebrate. To download the file, click Navigator > My Client Groups >Data Exchange > View Business Objects.  Then search for the business object Celebration and download the file. Screenshot of the View Business Objects Page with Refresh Object and download options highlighted.

  2. Edit the template file, populate it with data, make it a .zip file.       
  3. Import the file. Click Navigator > My Client Groups >Data Exchange > Import and Load Data.
  4. Load the .zip file.

This enhancement enables mass recognition imports and supports scalability for large organizations managing bulk recognitions.
