Upload PC File to Host

The upload feature provides the capability of uploading data (SSN's) from your PC to your CIRS PERMSML file.  The SSN's can then be used in creating Employment History or Payment History Extract files.  Refer to Extract Functions for more information.  

 

This feature cannot be initiated unless HR-ISA has been contacted and a procedure established.  Also, this feature is available only to designated users.   To receive upload authority, submit Form CIRS001 to HR-ISA.  Refer to the form for completion instructions.

 

Due to the variety of emulation packages available, this manual cannot address how to perform the actual upload on the PC side, and will only discuss how to initiate the upload function from CIRS.  For assistance using your file transfer software, contact your campus IT support.  

 

To upload a file, type a 1 at the cursor on the Other menu and press enter.
