Information Inaccurate Or Outdated

This page has been marked for review as the information maybe inaccurate or outdated. An integration with this REST API should only be made after consultation with Infinet Cloud as to the requirements.

The bulk update action is designed for the use case where employees leave balance is maintained externally and the balance details need to be synced into NetSuite for reporting purposes. The bulk update allows multiple employees to be submitted in the same request, and it performs no business or record level script resulting in less overhead and improved performance over syncEmployee. The bulk update is currently only supported on the employee record for the update of leave balances.
