Overview

Bulk Actions enables you to perform various redundant tasks such as uploading new transfer order files and closing cards in a single action. You can reduce time and increase the efficiency of your work by uploading a single order file across multiple entities and close all the active cards of a beneficiary in one go.

Before You Begin

Ensure that Company codes and Program codes are set, as they are used to group and identify multiple programs across different companies. 

Company Code Setup

Before you proceed, you need to setup company codes which are required to identify companies of your corporate. Follow the below steps to successfully setup company codes.

  1. Log into the Zeta Optima platform.
  2. From the left navigation space, click Zeta Optima > Bulk Actions > Bulk Transfer Order > Create Order.
  3. Enter the company code for each company under your corporate and click COMPLETE SETUP.

You have successfully setup the company codes.

Edit Company Codes

You can edit company codes of all companies present under the corporate.

  • Minimum 3 and maximum 7 characters allowed
  • Spaces and special characters not allowed
  • Duplicate check should be within a corporate and not global


Follow below steps to successfully edit the company codes.

  1. Go to Zeta Optima > Bulk Actions > +CREATE ORDER.
  2. Click click here under List of company codes. All company codes of the present corporate are displayed.
  3.  Click click here to edit the company codes.
  4. Enter the new codes as required and click SAVE.

    Scenario 1: You cannot set the same company code to multiple companies under the same corporate. For example, you cannot set the same code (TCC) to TestCloseCard and TestComapany under the same Corporate Z as shown in the below image.

    Scenario 2: You can set the same company code to companies under seperate corporates. For example, you can set the same company code (XYZ) to Company A under Corporate Z and Company B under Corporate Y.


Company code is successfully edited.


Program Code Setup

Program codes are used to group and identify multiple programs across different companies. Short codes can be alphanumeric. For example, MEAL1. To set them, please get in touch with your account manager or contact us on  support@zeta.in.

Bulk Transfer Orders

Bulk Transfer Orders action enables you to create and upload a single order file for a particular program across multiple entities, within a corporate account, for each program code, instead of uploading more than one order file for multiple entities. There could be multiple programs of the same type and each program will have a program group. 

A program group MEAL can have multiple active programs (MEAL 1, MEAL 2) for a corporate grouped under it, provided it is of the same product type in order of creation. Multiple Meal programs that are set for a company, named as Food vouchers program from Company 1, Lunch program from Company 2 and Food allowance from Company 3 can be tagged under the program group MEAL .

Bulk Close Cards

Under various circumstances, a corporate may want to close cards from a compliance perspective. Bulk Close Cards action enables you to close all the active cards of the beneficiaries mentioned in one go. 

A corporate may want to close cards for various reaons like:

  • Full and final settlement when an employee leaves an organisation.
  • During end of financial year (Year end closure).
  • An employee opts out of a particular program.

Once the cards are closed, an employee will neither receive any credits nor will any debits be allowed against that card. Cards once closed cannot be opened. The employee must opt in again and a new card will be issued by the corporate. 

The following cards are closed by the corporate:

  • Medical
  • Asset
  • Fuel
  • Communication
  • LTA
  • Driver Salary

Reimbursement cards or Allowance cards which require proof submission are closed by the corporate. Meal, shift, gift, rewards, partner gift and incentive are allowance cards with no proof submission required for claiming tax benefits and are generally not closed by the Corporate.
