Hello:
I am looking to deploy a software that can help in tracking employees availabiliy and the time they come to work, including all the details about they payrol and hours worked. The data will be feed through a swipe card machine, that's connected to the LAN. I am assuming that ofbiz can handle the first part, but I don't know how to track employees. What is the process to do this manually first ? Once I find the way (if it's possible through ofbiz) then I can consider automatic this through the swipe card integration. Is there a tutorial or instruction that shows how to track employees work hours ? Thank you |
in general ofbiz allows a time sheet. you would be using the workeffort
model as well as the HR model to track employees From the Data model Book vol I some work would need to be done on the OTTB ofbiz. there is a profession services data model also in the data model book II you can look at the projecMgr as to how to track Ideas.

you can walk through ofbiz that will take some time.
explaining employee tracking is beyond my scope of help on the mailing list. OTTB = OOTB, Out of the Box sorry since you were not clear on what type of tracking you want I gave you other options and yes if those in the Profession services is what you want you would need to implement that. OOTB ofbiz does basic tracking. if that is all you want then you set. you added employee info and that may require some work depending on how your are using it.

Hi Mansour:
Somewhere on the Wiki is a write up that Hans did discussing how to use the OFBiz project manager features to accomplish some of what I think you want to do. A while back I did a presentation - using the information in the write up - to show how to set up a consulting services and software product company using some out-of-the-box (OOTB) OFBiz features. Maybe Han's presentation would be of help to you as well. Regards, Ruth Mansour Al Akeel wrote: > Thank you BJ. Could you please give me more details?

BJ, thank you.
Let's say I need to track the following info: - the time the employee came to work. - Time she left. - Days of work, and abscence, - show total hours worked, and calculate payroll... A quick navigation through ofbiz, gave me the impression that this is possible OOTB. But how ? Do I create a project for this, and call it "Every Day Job", then add tasks .... etc ? Any hints ?

Thank you, Ruth.
I was not able to find this presentaion on the wiki ? I looked into http://ofbiz.apache.org/documentation.html then did a search on "Hans", but the results didn't include what I was looking for. Am I missing something ? Thank you ?

simplest form is to create tasks.
then they select tasks on their times sheet. they get paid for what is on the time sheet. you can add a task for the badge reader of clock in and clockout. you would need to add services to validate the other tasks were between those two tasks. you can setup their payscale. The absence needs work if you want to document if it is a legal excuse. and if you want to get into leaves and holiday pay that also needs work. this is the employee myportal https://demo-trunk.businessesnetwork.com/myportal/control/login/main?USERNAME=DemoEmployee&PASSWORD=ofbiz&JavaScriptEnabled=Y you can look up payroll payments https://demo-trunk.businessesnetwork.com/accounting/control/findPayments?USERNAME=flexadmin&PASSWORD=ofbiz&JavaScriptEnabled=Y select for payment type payroll payments. this still needs work last time I looked.
