[Question] What payroll module are these modules dependant on?

[TheCloneMaster]

Hi,
Are these dependent on Enterprise payroll, OCA's, Cybrosys' or any other?

Hi @TheCloneMaster ,
To the extent that they are based on anything they are based on Odoo Community Edition, OCA/hr, and OCA/payroll. But most of the dependencies are within this repository. In terms of functionality they are more like the Cybrosys modules, but a bit more complete in some areas. I developed these for real-world use cases and my goal was to limit the need for a developer to be involved in configuring the system. The extent of the implementer's technical proficiency should be to be able to write salary rules. So, for example:

• The payroll_policy_* modules are used to configure how things like, presence, absence, overtime are processed.
• The payroll_period* modules are used to do consistency checks and actually run the payroll so that every month you don't have to manually check all the contracts/leaves/etc are approved and then manually create payslip batches for your employees.
• The hr_employee_status and hr_contract_* modules are used to manage employee and contract life-cycles.
• The hr_benefit_* modules are used to automatically assign benefits to employees that, with the appropriate salary rules, can be used to create allowances and/or deductions in the payslip.
• Finally, the resource_schedule module is a recent addition that is meant to implement employee shift scheduling, although it hasn't been integrated with payroll yet.

I should really get around to writing articles or tutorials on how to go about using these modules, but until then I would be happy to answer any questions you may have. I want people to use these modules, and most of them have extensive tests so that modifying them for your needs should be easy.

Hi @mtelahun ,
Thanks for your great explanation!
I failed to notice that you have your own payroll repository.
I am using Cybrosys' payroll, but it is mostly the same as OCA's.
Will take a look at yours, and these helper modules that indeed sound like a great help for users and implementation.
We have a couple payroll projects in the horizon, so I will be for sure using this repo and providing feedback.
What would you think of merging your payroll modules with OCA's, and adapt these helper modules? We could do that for v15/v16 if you have no problem with that... I am a believer on community power, more users mean more possibilities of more developers contributing...

Thanks
-Mario

Hi, I have no problem with merging it into OCA. In fact, a couple of basic features were already merged in the last couple of days. Glad to hear that you're interested in using the repo for your projects. Take a look at trevi-software/odoo-profiles to see how I use these modules.
