This commit improves leave request and allocation management through a
better integration of activities and addition of automated activities.
Several things are done in this commit :
* leave and allocation models do not inherit from mail.activity.mixin.
This commit adds the inherit so that HR users and managers can now
schedule and manage activities on leave and allocation requests. This
will help them in their daily job;
* automatic activities generation is added for leave and allocation.
Activities are generated for approval and second approval. They are also
automatically set as done when validating or unlinked when refusing or
resetting to avoid bloating users with unnecessary activities;
* a menu to configure activity types is added. Indeed HR managers should be
able to see and configure activity types related to their job;
* filters are added to be able to use the systray and to filter the kanban
view based on activities
Having automated activities allow to replace some messages and tracking
that were implemented to warn people of leave and allocation to approve
or validate. This commit therefore
* simplifies the tracking as only approved or refused state now trigger
a subtype;
* removes to approve and to validate subtypes on leave and allocation
model as well as their parent subtypes on the department. This allows
to simplify chatter a lot in hr_holidays app;
It is simpler to have data split by main model or application like we
already do for models and views. It allows to easily have an overview
of data a module holds.
As we will work on mail related data like adding activities or tweaking
subtypes and templates, having them all in a single file and not lost
between other data helps finding and working with it.
This commit only moves code. No functional change should occur.
