The Import Staff Data page is used to add employee or staff data in bulk to the E-SCHOOL SIAKAD Plus system through uploading a file in .CSV format. This feature simplifies the process for administrators to input a lot of staff data at once, without having to add them one by one manually.

• Re-check the data before uploading to minimize errors.
• The system only accepts files with the .CSV extension.
