Purpose
=======
Give the possibility to elaborate plans through Odoo. For instance, in HR,
you could create an onboarding plan when a employee is created. Someone manages
laptop and other equipment, someone check hr stuff, ... This feature is generic
but in a first time we will apply it only on the hr module.
Ease HR process in a company by creating plans: a plan is an assembly of Next
Activities that will be launched together whenever you need it.
Example of plan for an employee onboarding:
Activity: Prepare materials
Responsible: Alain
Deadline: At the contract signature
Activity: Manage Cars
Responsible: Cécile
Deadline: at the contract signature (both signature)
Activity: Plan Training
Responsible: Caroline
Deadline: After signature
Activity: Training
Responsible: Employee
Deadline: 1 week after the employement date
Specifications

When to trigger it ?
HR specific use case:
1/ On employee, from the employee chatter:
when you create an employee, Odoobot will log a note with the following message:
"Congratulations ! May i recommand you to setup an onboarding plan?", with a link
create a plan from it.
2/ Add a button 'launch plan' to open a wizard to select the plan
3/ When archive an employee
Open a wizard with:
- Reason (selection)

[NEW] base: show enterprise module, with an 'upgrade' button
[IMP] *: some modules renaming, and improved copywriting of manifest
[IMP] *: utm on links to odoo.com
In this commit we improve templates used in hr. Purpose of this commit
is to have templates that embed or use standard Odoo email layouts to make
them look modern and have a common style across all emails.
Main guidelines
* better use of div / p / br to try to lessen layout issues, especially
when updating templates using the editor;
* correctly sequence the templates fields definition;
* correctly set templates values notably auto_delete and user_signature
fields to avoid confusion;
* correctly layout the email content using light notification email. It
can either propagate the layout choice through various send mail methods
or directly embed the styling in the templates for more technical or
complex templates;
* use email_formatted computed field when possible to avoid having hand-made
from / to addresses;
* fix various typos and improve subjects when necessary;
Content of emails is not necessarily updated as the purpose of this task is
about styling, not content itself.
This commit is linked to task ID 1843361 (and 1868112) and to PR #25299
(and #25889).
New feature in mail module
==========================
Currently, an email can be sent to an alias from:
- Everyone
- Authenticated Partners
- Followers
This commit is intended to add another category: Employees
The main purpose of this new feature is to allow employees to send an email
to an 'expense' alias in order to create automatically their expenses with
their mobile phones.
Use this new mechanism in hr_expense
====================================
Currenlty, we're overriding message_new to make a security check and create
an expense if the sender is an employee or bounce otherwise, which is not the
correct way to achieve this. A better way is to use the alias mechanism now
that it has been extended to employees too.
Don't hardcode email_from
=========================
The email_from of the bounce email is hardcoded to "help@odoo.com". I am sure
they will be happy to receive all answers from any odoo instance
Review the bounce email content
===============================
content: Your expense has not been created because your email address is not set
on an employee or on a employee's user. Configure your employee's information correctly and try again.
-> this is a message for the admin, not an employee or anyone else
Now the content is generical for aliase defined for employees.
addendum to commit da6b9d1be443999028f021ff81b4cf128a4eaaa2
- better employee name and image for default employee in data (xml-id: hr.employee_root)
- in demo data hr.employee_fp renamed to hr.employee_root to not have 2 employees linked to the root user
- renamed all occurences of employee_fp to employee_root
Replace employee linked to base.user_root (administator) in data
by employee_fp (Pieter Parker) from demo data in order to avoid having 2
employees linked to the root user.
- Rewrite the code to new api without changes
business behavior
- Remove old v7 backward compatibility method
- Regroup view definitions in the same xml file
- Use read_group for computed fields
