The human resources module was developed by an external contributor SALTO CONSULTING. The explanations below have been taken from the instructions, provided in French only, with the module.
* French documentation on the implementation of regulated absences is available on the download page
The HR module was created in order to be easily adapted to French law, but it can be fully parameterized according to the rights of any country
This section allows to manage the society’s Humans Resources.
This system comes in addition to the standards of the management of absences.
Used to manage absences that must be validated, controlled and have values to be regulated according to French law.
For the module to be functional, you must define the employees, new status for resources or users.
The absence manager in charge of leave, the types of leave you offer to your employees and the different types of employment contracts.
You can choose the leave entitlement standard for each type of contract
The employee may reserve periods of leave of absence according to his rights.
The system also includes a validation process of the requests during the leave period.
Absence Administrator
In order to be able to manage and configure the human resources module after its installation, you must access the global parameters.
A special additional HR section allows you to define the administrator of absences and regulated rights.
It is thus possible to manage the paid holidays, the RTT, the Stopped diseases by treating:
Quantities acquired over a period of time
The period of validity of a quantity of absence
The possibility or not to take early holidays over the period being acquired
The number of days before and after which the absence request can be made
Specific acquisition rules
Validation or rejection of an application
Note
A project dedicated to these regulated absences is created and makes it possible to store the requested days of absence as planned time
and the days of absence validated as working time thus making it possible to integrate these absences in the planning.
Leaves States
With the activation of the HR module, an absence workflow is added with 3 states, which are accessible and customizable in the automation systems.
Recorded
Creation status. In this state all the data of the absence can be modified.
Submitted
This status means that the employee has sent his leave request to his hierarchy for validation.
Validated
State that only the manager and the administrator of the module can be enabled.
When the leave request is validated or refused, the status of the request cannot be changed
Cancelled
State that only the manager and the administrator of the module can be enabled.
The number of days the absence represents are not taken.
When the leave request is validated or refused, the status of the request cannot be changed
Note
The calculation of the number of days represented by absence is done on the basis of working days.
The working days are defined in Global Parameters and calendar associated with employee: holidays, non-working days.
This allow the employee to associate the rules of acquisition, the special rules of regulated absences and the acquired rights by type of absence and by acquisition period.
Manager
A manager is a resource whose properties “is an employee” and “is absence manager” are checked
Box “is an employee” and “is manager of leaves” is checked¶
A manager must be an employee.
An employee manager can make absence requests in lieu of employees.
He can validate or reject employee absentee requests that he manages.
Important
The management of an employee is dated, which allows to change manager or temporarily delegate management to another manager (absences).
The regulation of absences is based on the rights to take absences acquired over a given period.
It is therefore based on values to be given to attributes of regulation according to the type of absence (ex: Paid leave, RTT, sick leave, legal leave, etc.), and the type of contract associated with the employee (Ex: Full time, Part time).

Specific acquisition of rights
To integrate specific rights of absence, the concept of special rights has been put in place.
More detail about contractual values, see Earned rights
Parameters for earned leave rights
In this section you can define which types of regulated absences will be attached to this type of contract.
If you have created several types of regulated absences and attached them to all your contracts (check box on default or on everything), these types will be visible in this section.
If you are missing types of absences, you can create them from this screen:
Click on the button
A pop up opens and proposes to fill in the same fields as on the screen of the types of regulated absences
Skills can be split into sub-skills without level limitation.
The “display the structure” button allows you to display the SBS (skill Breakdown Structure) of the selected skill with an indentation of the sub-skills for better visibility.
The calculation of the relevance rate takes into account the resource parameters (FTE, planning, multi-project, etc.) and the level of skill requested.
The relevance rate is defined using a simple calculation.
Availability rate x competence rate / 100.
