oninit rule not triggered after employee import

[user116]

Hello community,

We've configured to autopoulate the value "5" for "working days per week' field, this oninit rule successfully works in add new employee, but the value does not autopopulate using import employee data

Hello, OnInit rule is not supported when adding new employee via Import Employee Data. Hope the answer helps. Best regards, Ashley

Hello, thank you for your response, is there another solution to make the field populated via import employee data?

It depends on the requirement.

If the value 5 is only needed to be auto-filled during hire process, then onSave rule would use here as a workaround.

However, if you need this field value in "if" condition in another rule, then there is no workaround, you would have to provide it in imported file as well.
