### Notes about imported people data:

- *Future hires will be automatically imported, regardless of their hire dates. To ensure new hires are assigned to the correct position at the appropriate time, we recommend specifying future effective dates when* [*assigning individuals to Built positions*](/v1/docs/connecting-people-imported-from-adp-ihcm-with-newly-assigned-positions) *in ADP iHCM.*
- *When* [*updating position assignments*](/v1/docs/connecting-people-imported-from-adp-ihcm-with-newly-assigned-positions)*, we recommend entering the appropriate Built position IDs in iHCM prior to scheduled imports, ensuring that new positions are not created unnecessarily.*
- *Company Admins and HR Admins can choose whether preferred names or legal names are imported from iHCM. To do this, click your company name at the top of the main navigation, click* ***Company Settings****, and then click the* ***Imports*** *tab. Locate the* ***General Import Settings*** *section and click the* ***Edit*** *button. Click* ***Yes*** *to import preferred names, then click* ***Save****.*
- *While multiple home addresses may be documented for an individual in iHCM, only the first address listed will be imported into Built.*

### Notes about imported location data:

- *Only locations associated with active employees are imported due to ADP iHCM’s API limitations.*
- *Location addresses and time zones are not imported as they are not available in ADP iHCM’s API.\*

*If you'd like to exclude specific individuals, people data, or position data from your import, please contact our Customer Success Team. Learn more about* [*importing people-centric versus position-centric data*](/v1/docs/importing-people-centric-versus-position-centric-data)*.*
