# Uploading multiple personal documents to multiple employees

You can upload multiple documents into the **Cintra iQ** database at one time, which can be viewed in **Self-Service** in **Personal Documents o**r within **Cintra iQ**.

## Before you begin...

### Create a CSV

Create a **.csv** (comma separated) file containing the following information for each employee you wish to upload the document.

- Person Identifier.
- Location of where the file resides.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:** This should include the full path and name of the file on your network.
- Category of document.
- Description of each document.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:** You can set up the information in Microsoft Excel and save the file in a .csv (comma separated) format.

### Display the Document in Self-Service

Set **Visible** to **Y** to display the document in **Self-Service**. You are now ready to import the file into **Cintra iQ**.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:** You can review the .csv content rules in the Multiple Document Upload window, by clicking the (?) Information button.
