General Purpose
===============
We want an 'Employee profile' gathering every data about an employee.
The main form view is modified to become this employee profile.
A user can also see his own profile through the Preferences menu.
The new profile replaces the current Preferences view if the hr module is installed
and the current user is linked to an employee.
A user should be able to see and edit his own profile.
*Problem*:
Many fields on hr.employee are protected by groups="hr.group_hr_user".
Therefore, a regular user cannot see or edit those fields.
This protection must be bypassed to allow read/write access
to the regular user's own data.
A similar mechanism already exists for res.users (for Preferences)
The better (least worst) solution found is to reuse this mechanism by adding related fields on res.users.
Pros:
- Don't change security access on hr.employee
- Don't implement yet another custom security layer, risking to add new security breaches
- A lot of fields are added by other modules on hr.employee.
It would have required to integrate them with the custom security layer.
- Fields added by other modules on the user's preferences view (normal view, not the profile)
are automatically included in the employee's profile view.
- Allow the hr.employee form view to be different than the user profile accessible
through the Preferences menu.
E.g. add custom buttons only relevant to the logged in user such as "Request a leave".
Cons:
- Each field from hr.employee that you want to appear on its profile
must be added as a related field on res.users
- Those related fields must be added to user's preferences view (duplicate views)
- They also must be added to SELF_[READABLE | WRITABLE]_FIELDS
Note:
When the front-end loads the views it gets the list of available fields
for the user (according to its access rights). Later, when the front-end wants to
populate the view with data, it only asks to read those available fields.
However, in this case, we want the user to be able to read/write its own data,
even if they are protected by groups (groups are kept on the related fields on res.users).
The front-end need to be made aware of those fields by sending all field definitions.
hr_attendance
=============
This commit integrate attendance in the new employee profile.
It also adds a stat button to this employee profile showing
the number of hours worked last month.
Remove the boolean computed field 'manual_attendance'.
This field is just a shortcut to add/remove the employee's user
in the "Manual Attendance" group.
The checkbox is confusing on the employee's form and this should
be done through the normal group management screens.
hr_presence
===========
Display the presence status on the employee kanban template.
The status is a colored chip which can be green (present),
orange (to define) or red (absent).
Currently, the presence status is only computed when accessing
the report view. As this commits displays it on the employee kanban,
it should be updated more frequently.
The state should not be updated every time the kanban view is loaded
since the computation is a bit heavy. Instead: add a cron to update
status every 15 minutes.
-> The status is accurate on the report view (status is still updated
when loading the view)
-> The status in accurate at 15 minutes on the kanban view
[ADD] hr_attendance_presence
============================
Bridge module between hr_attendance and hr_presence.
This commit integrates hr_presence module in the employee
profile and adds the presence status on the employee kanban view.
But hr_attendance adds at the same place a similar status icon for
checkin/checkout.
This bridge module makes the status from hr_presence invisible as
hr_attendance should be the main presence control mechanism.
Also, this commit adds the ability (through a new setting option)
for hr_presence to take into account checkin/checkout to determine
the presence status.
l10n_be_hr_payroll
==================
integration with employee profile
=========
PURPOSE
=========
{Any employee can work on a PoS session, even if he has no user. This decreases the cost of PoS App.}
We are not competitive enough on the PoS Market because customers have to pay one user per cashier while they expect to pay one user per cash station.
===============
SPECIFICATIONS
===============
pos.config
- Add a checkbox : "Login with Employees"
- If set to TRUE, an "Allowed Employees" many2many appear
- If employees many2many is empty, all employees can log on this PoS
- If set to FALSE, can only log in with the currently logged user
hr.employee
- The barcode and pin fields were be moved to the hr.employee
- Set a barcode (not pin) by default at the creation of any employee
- No Employees module with PoS > dependency to hr
Open the PoS if "Log in with Employees" = FALSE
- Same behaviour than now, when I open the PoS, I'm logged in with the current user and can start working at once. The only difference is that it is not possible to switch users anymore.
- The button to close the session is visible
Open he PoS if "Log in with Employees" = TRUE
- When I open the PoS, the first screen I see is the login screen.
(a) I choose my employee and enter my pin code (if there is pin code on my employee, otherwise not required) (I can only see employees that have access to that PoS)
(b) I scan my barcode
(c) I scan my rfid card (future development)
- When I click on the employee name, I can log in with another employee
- If the employee is linked to a user that has the pos user/manager access right, I can see the button the close the session. Otherwise I cannot close the session (and thus cannot access backend).
- Add field employee on all records created by PoS (and replace the field user by that one) (on pos.orders)
Lock Screen
- Improve the PoS Interface
- Add a new feature to allow to "lock" the session. When a session has been locked, the user/employee has to re-log-in to access the PoS
- When I try to re-log-in, by default suggest the last employee logged in in the login screen
Migration
Plan a migration strategy > barcode and pin is now on the employee and not on the user anymore
closesodoo/odoo#28567
- Scan a barcode for employee 1 in kiosk mode
- At greetings message, scan a barcode for employee 2
2 attendance entries are created for employee 2 instead of 1.
When scanning the barcode for employee 2, the event listener
`_onBarcodeScanned` is still active on `KioskMode`. Therefore, the RPC
call to `attendance_scan` is performed twice.
We deactivate the event listener after scanning, and reactivate on
`KioskMode` only if there is an issue. This is sufficient since the call
to `do_action` in `GreetingMessage` will create another instance of the
client action. In `GreetingMessage`, we add back the redirection to
`KioskMode`.

If the search returns more than one result, the rendering of the message would
crash (SingletonError when accessing check_in field value).
Use the same order and limit as both search before and after

- Open the Attendance kiosk mode
- Scan an incorrect barcode
It's not possible to scan any barcode anymore.
If the barcode is incorrect, we need to add back the event listener.
Moreover, the RPC introduced with bbc7e9586d is not necessary if
we retrieve the barcode thanks to the existing RPC call.

From this commit onwards, Date fields will return datetime.date objects and Datetime fields will return datetime.datetime objects, this implies a number of things that are clearly explained both in the ORM API for master.
This commit also introduces a number of helper functions for dates and datetimes that are exposed in tools.date_utils and fields.Date[time], explained in the documentation as well.
Task-ID: 47189
The reified view on the res users will be dropped in the following commit.
The previous commit adds support to define each group as a computed field on the res users.
This commit defines:
- A boolean field for each 'isolated' res.group, i.e. a group in the hidden category.
- A selection field for each 'Application' res.group, i.e. a group in a application category.
Example:
- The group to manage pricelist in sales becomes a boolean field
- The groups project user/manager become a selection field
Related fields that are not readonly are rewritten each time you save the
associated record, provoking performance problems.
Moreover, we don't want to allow an employee to change its department through
an attendance record.
Closes#21441
The constraint does not allow the same check out time as the next
check in time which might be rare but a possible and likely use case.

Closes#18400
The timezones are already managed in the JS.
So on the attendance check in/out screen when a user clocked out
after 8 hrs he got a message saying that he has been in for more than 12 hrs.

When going to the General Settings and clicking a link generating
breadcrumbs, the breadcrumbs would not always read "General Settings".
Not sure why, but Odoo seems to takes the breadcrumb name from the last
ir.actions.act_window with the res_model being "base.config.settings".
In google_calendar: such an action was named API Configuration.
In hr_attendance: the settings wrongly inherits from base.config.settings
without renaming the model.
-> Model is renamed to attendance.config.settings like
in other modules (e.g.: sale) to avoid collision.
