Allow our users to modify mail template more easily
- make the list accessible from the settings
- give them a link to update relevant views to update header/footer
- make the list and form of templates more readable
- add a description on templates, allowing to describe their usage
In order to better filter templates, a new category field is added that
is computed based on active flag, description being set and the template
having an xml ID. Master templates are active, with a description and an
xml ID.
Update master data to add description on some templates.

Jinja as a templating engine was problematic in differents respect:
- introduce external dependency to Odoo (less controll)
- add another templating mechanism in the stack
- specific feature in qweb cannot be reused
- difficulty in rendering easily editable templates
- more knowledge required with no betterment
By replacing jinja with qweb we can now build tools to edit a qweb
that will work with the previously jinja encoded document
(essentially `mail.template` records).
There is a catch however. Some email fields (eg. email_to) used jinja
syntax for rendering dynamic variables (ie. ${object.something} and
${object.something_that_should_not_be_escaped | safe}).
We still want user to use dynamic variables for some char fields (eg.
subject, from, to, ...). We made a new rendering engine called
"inline_template" that will render an expression enclosed by `{{` and
`}}`.
To be able to edit the templates from the backend interface, a
plugin to the Odoo editor has been made for seamlessly edit the
document.
This qweb plugin includes:
- make dynamic variables (eg. `<t t-out="variable"/>`) not editable
(for preventing the user to shoot himself in the foot)
- group and hide related logical branching (ie. t-if, t-elif, and t-else)
in order to see only one at once
- a floating select input to switch visibility of a particular logical
branching

Part-of: odoo/odoo#77377
PURPOSE
Clean organization of templates in odoo apps: mail.template records in data,
qweb templates (views) used directly in code, notably using post with view.
Purpose is to ease future improvements in posting based on templates.
SPECIFICATIONS
* move those templates in their own file to ease their discovering and
maintenance;
* put them into data (as those are not views even if it contains qweb)
* guidelines are now :
-> Qweb templates should be in data/mail_templates.xml;
-> mail.template records should be in data/mail_template_data.xml;
* put their declaration in no update when not done if template has no
technical code or complex dependency on underlying code;
* move found mail data (mail.message.subtype or mail.activity.type) records
in a mail_data file that should contain only "core" records linked to mail;

Notably
* remove cdata and fix html code when necessary;
* re-order fields declaration to have globally the same order in various
template definition;
* remove unnecessary reply-to, make user signature and auto delete fields
explicit when necessary;
* improve some name to ease template ordering and understanding in the
template list view;

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
=======
A lot of companies don't use the module hr.attendance but are faced
to employees distraction, they forget to record leaves.
In big companies, it is not easy to controle presence and
check if everyone is present in the office.
Specification
=============
1/ Review Human Resources menuitems
- Employees
- Contract
- Department
- Reports
- Employee Presence
- Configuration
- Settings
- Employee
- Tag
- Contract
- Types
- Templates
- Challenges
- Challenges
- Badges
- Goal History
2/ Add option in hr settings to decide the company policy
[ ] Controle Presence of Employees
[ ] According the system login --> Based on the bus presence (Present if 'away' or 'online')
[ ] Following number of sent emails --> Based on the sent mail.message during the day
[ ] According to the IP address --> Based on the ip address when requesting a long polling, stored on a res.users.log
3/ Add an employee presence view
This view is only for the hr manager and the data is computed when the hr manager goes to it
Clicking on this menu item will generate all kanban of employees grouped by state (present, absent, to define)
On each employee cart, an action can be requested as:
- Send a sms to the employee
- Send an email to the employee
- Create a leave for the employee
4/ Use this email template to contact the employee
Dear %(employee_name)s,
Exception made if there was a mistake of ours, it seems that you are not at your office and there is not request of leaves from you.
Please, take appropriate measures in order to carry out this work absence.
Do not hesitate to contact your manager or the human resource department.
Best Regards,
