We need to have a clear distinction between holidays managers and
holidays officers.
For this a number of improvements have been done in hr_holidays.
For more informations about the changes see the docstrings of hr.leave
and hr.leave.allocation.
Task #34222Closes#19270
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;
Purpose
=======
Have a clear distinction between leave and allocation requests instead of
using the same model to mix 2 different concepts.
Splitting the model will allow different business code to be run on each
model as allocations and leaves are not exactly the same thing; this
will add some code but simplify future improvements
Specification
=============
1/ Completely separate the models
Model hr.holidays has been split into leave.request and
leave.allocation.
2/ Make reporting working again by using an SQL view aggregating data
from leaves and allocations
A new report has been added in order to aggregate
datas from both allocations and requests. The views have been modified
accordingly.
PURPOSE
=======
For each and every Hr application there should be one user category (One app = one category).
SPECIFICATION
=============
HR remains as it is : Employee, Officer, Manager
Each Application should have 2 access rights: User and Manager. Example for Recruitment:
- The user has access to the recruitment process
- The manager has access to the job position configuration
Each Application should grant the employee user access right (Namely the 'HR Officer')
Several modules defines records with the external ID `base.foo_bar` while it is
created inside this module (typically menus and groups).
While there is no technical reasons to do so but this may introduce issues:
- these records will not be deleted during uninstall
- if a language is loaded before the installation of the module, it won't be
translated
The uninstallation will only remove the records with an external id linked to
this module (these would only be removed when removing base).
Installing a language before the module will drop the translations not linked
to an existing external id (as it can not be resolved).
This commit correct all the external ids tagged as from base or other incorrect
modules.
- added a workflow transition from refuse to draft, to allow resetting
a refused request
- resetting is now based on a can_reset field, taht is based on whether
it is my own request or I am an hr manager
- added an access right on crm_meeting that was preventing hr officers
to validate some requests
- improved form view to show reset to draft button accordingly
- added tests that helped trigerred the various bugs and improvements
