In addition to downloading submission forms in bulk, Mekari Talenta also has a Bulk Import Form Submission feature. This feature simplifies the process of collecting large amounts of data efficiently. This feature allows users to upload all data at once using a structured spreadsheet format, making mass response collection, such as daily reports, monthly surveys, or internal requests, faster, more accurate, and easier to manage. Here are the steps for uploading submission forms in bulk in Mekari Talenta.

  1. Go to the Productivity menu, then click Forms and Surveys.

  2. Then, select the “Forms” menu tab.

  3. Next, select one of the Forms you've created.

  4. On the form details page, click “More” then select Import submission.

    Important
    You can only upload bulk submission forms for forms with the answer types Text, Number, Amount, Date, and Long Text allowed.

  5. There are four steps to importing a file, the first of which is Select Respondent. You can select respondents individually by clicking “Select Respondent”. Or, select all the names of respondents (employees) in your company directly by clicking Select all respondents.

    If you select “Select Respondent,” you can select the names of any employees assigned as respondents from the list in the left column of the pop-up below. If the selected names are correct, click “Add”.

    A. Respondent List Tab: You can view a list of the employee IDs of the employees selected as respondents, such as Employee ID, Employee name, and Job position.

    B. Bulk Submission Template Tab: You can view the columns related to the Submission Form, such as Employee ID, Employee name, [Question A], [Question B], [Question C], and so on, as in the following example.

  8. Finally, once you've finished filling out and completing the template, return to your Mekari Talenta application window and click “Browse” to upload the template file. Make sure the file is still in Excel format and is no larger than 10 MB.

  9. Files uploaded by the system will be visible in the Upload section of the spreadsheet. You can delete the file if you uploaded the wrong one by clicking the “-” icon. Once the file is correct, click “Upload” to upload or import the submission form to your Mekari Talenta.
