[OFBiz] Dev - HRMS

[Michael Irving]

I’m working on a module that will allow the user to create an employee.  I would like to utilize the services that are currently in OFBIZ, but I’m not sure how to implement this within the framework.  The process I’d like to follow is:

 

1. Create a Person
2. Create the relationship between the person and company (party group)
3. Add Payroll information (w-2 information)

 

Should I create a new class that implements the existing Party classes or is there better way to do this?

Don't forget to create party roles for the employee and for the company.

Employee role = EMPLOYEE
Company role = EMPLOYER

Then you can use those roles in the party relationships.

The existing data models and services should have everything you need.
If you have the "Data Model Resources" book, I think it has a chapter on
human resources data model that might help.

Just a quick guess--you would create Person for the employee, PartyGroup
for the company, PartyRole for both the employee and the company, then a
PartyRelationship between the two (company-employee relationship). Then
you would create the payroll information for the employee. I think you
might be able to use PayrollPreference entity as a starting point,
perhaps adding a couple of fields if you need it?

You can have either employee or company be partyIdFrom, since the
roleTypeId actually defines what role it is. I don't think there's a
convention yet, as we don't actually have an HR application in OFBiz.
