Step-by-step guide to create an Odoo module for an HRMS system.

Sure! I’ll provide you with a step-by-step guide to create an Odoo module for an HRMS system. Here are the files and their respective paths you’ll need to create:

1. Create a directory for your module. Let’s call it hrms_module.
2. Inside the hrms_module directory, create a new file named __manifest__.py. This file is the manifest file for your module and provides information about the module.

Path: hrms_module/__manifest__.py

{
    'name': 'HRMS Module',
    'summary': 'Human Resource Management System',
    'description': 'A comprehensive HRMS module for managing employees, leaves, and attendance.',
    'version': '1.0',
    'category': 'Human Resources',
    'author': 'Your Name',
    'depends': ['base', 'hr'],
    'data': [
        'security/ir.model.access.csv',
        'views/employee_views.xml',
        'views/leave_views.xml',
        'views/attendance_views.xml',
        'views/menu.xml',
    ],
    'installable': True,
    'application': True,
    'auto_install': False,
}

3. Create a directory named security inside the hrms_module directory. This directory will contain security-related files.

Path: hrms_module/security/

4. Inside the security directory, create a new file named ir.model.access.csv. This file defines access control rules for your module.

Path: hrms_module/security/ir.model.access.csv

id,name,model_id:id,group_id:id,perm_read,perm_write,perm_create,perm_unlink
access_hrms_module_manager,HRMS Manager,model_hr_employee,base.group_hr_manager,1,1,1,1
access_hrms_module_user,HRMS User,model_hr_employee,,1,1,1,0

5. Create a directory named views inside the hrms_module directory. This directory will contain the XML views for your module.

Path: hrms_module/views/

6. Inside the views directory, create a new file named employee_views.xml. This file defines the views for managing employees.

Path: hrms_module/views/employee_views.xml

<odoo>
    <data>
        <record model="ir.ui.view" id="view_employee_form">
            <field name="name">hr.employee.form</field>
            <field name="model">hr.employee</field>
            <field name="arch" type="xml">
                <!-- Define your employee form view here -->
            </field>
        </record>
    </data>
</odoo>

7. Similarly, create leave_views.xml and attendance_views.xml inside the views directory to define views for managing leaves and attendance, respectively.

Path: hrms_module/views/leave_views.xml

<odoo>
    <data>
        <record model="ir.ui.view" id="view_leave_form">
            <field name="name">hr.leave.form</field>
            <field name="model">hr.leave</field>
            <field name="arch" type="xml">
                <!-- Define your leave form view here -->
            </field>
        </record>
    </data>
</odoo>

Path: hrms_module/views/attendance_views.xml

<odoo>
    <data>
        <record model="ir.ui.view" id="view_attendance_form">
            <field name="name">hr.attendance.form</field>
            <field name="model">hr.attendance</field>
            <field name="arch" type="xml">
                <!-- Define your attendance form view here -->
            </field>
        </record>
    </data>
</odoo>

8. Create a new file named menu.xml inside the views directory. This file defines the menu structure for your module.

Path: hrms_module/views/menu.xml

<odoo>
    <data>
        <record model="ir.ui.menu" id="menu_hrms_main">
            <field name="name">HRMS</field>
            <field name="sequence" eval="10"/>
            <field name="action" ref="action_hrms_dashboard"/>
        </record>
        <menuitem id="menu_hrms_configuration" name="Configuration" parent="menu_hrms_main" sequence="10"/>
        <menuitem id="menu_hrms_employee" name="Employees" parent="menu_hrms_main" sequence="20" action="action_hr_employee"/>
        <menuitem id="menu_hrms_leave" name="Leaves" parent="menu_hrms_main" sequence="30" action="action_hr_leave"/>
        <menuitem id="menu_hrms_attendance" name="Attendance" parent="menu_hrms_main" sequence="40" action="action_hr_attendance"/>
    </data>
</odoo>

9. Finally, create an empty __init__.py file in the hrms_module directory. This file is necessary to mark the directory as a Python package.

Path: hrms_module/__init__.py

That’s it! You have created the basic structure for your HRMS module in Odoo. Make sure to fill in the actual form view definitions and actions in the XML files according to your specific requirements.

 

Certainly! I’ll provide an updated version of the code with additional functions for vacation application, time off, and advance payment in the HRMS module. Here are the modified files:

1. hrms_module/__manifest__.py

{
    'name': 'HRMS Module',
    'summary': 'Human Resource Management System',
    'description': 'A comprehensive HRMS module for managing employees, leaves, and attendance.',
    'version': '1.0',
    'category': 'Human Resources',
    'author': 'Your Name',
    'depends': ['base', 'hr'],
    'data': [
        'security/ir.model.access.csv',
        'views/employee_views.xml',
        'views/leave_views.xml',
        'views/attendance_views.xml',
        'views/vacation_views.xml',
        'views/time_off_views.xml',
        'views/advance_payment_views.xml',
        'views/menu.xml',
    ],
    'installable': True,
    'application': True,
    'auto_install': False,
}

2. hrms_module/security/ir.model.access.csv

access_hrms_module_user,HRMS User,model_hr_employee,,1,1,1,0
access_hrms_vacation_manager,Vacation Manager,model_hr_vacation,base.group_hr_manager,1,1,1,1
access_hrms_time_off_manager,Time Off Manager,model_hr_time_off,base.group_hr_manager,1,1,1,1
access_hrms_advance_payment_manager,Advance Payment Manager,model_hr_advance_payment,base.group_hr_manager,1,1,1,1

Please note that in the above code, I have added new files for each function (vacation, time off, advance payment) and their respective views. You will need to define the actual form views and models according to your specific requirements.
