# Create a bulk case request

Use bulk case request to create the same type of HR case, for multiple employees, without having to create the same case multiple times.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn\_hr\_core.admin

**Note:** Previously, the HR case writer \(sn\_hr\_core.case\_writer\) role was required. Because bulk case creation involves a large number of cases, it was decided to change the required role to HR admin \(sn\_hr\_core.admin\).
