[hide]Short Description
The Applications module is used to transfer various requests, eg leave requests and many others, to the superiors.
Business Description
It is a module in which employees can submit applications to their superiors for vacation, event, training, purchase, benefits or other. when creating the Application, there are three required and non-required fields, such as:
- Name : this field provides the general name of the application to which it relates
- Type : it is a field with a drop-down list in which we choose the type of application, whether it is a leave, event, training, purchase, benefits or other
- Status : this field is a drop-down list in which you can see the current statuses of the Application, such as : New, In progress, Accepted, Rejected. In particular, the last two statuses are important because they indicate whether the decision-making person has accepted or rejected the application
- Decision Maker : it is a field related to the users module in which a decision-making person regarding a specific application is selected
- Description : a field where the authoring user can enter a more detailed description of a given application
- Applicant : it is the same relational field as the "Decision Maker" field, so to the users module in which the person who submitted the application is selected
In the status field, the following values are possible which indicate the current status of the Application:
- New : this status tells the user that a new application has been created and has not yet been processed, accepted or rejected
- In progress : this status tells the user that his application is being processed by a decision-maker
- Accepted : this is the status that the decision-maker sets after positively verifying the application
- Rejected : this is the status that the decision-maker sets after negative verification of the application
When user creating the application, has several types to choose from:
- Leave : creating this type of application, the user can inform the supervisor about the planned vacation. The decision-maker may grant or refuse such leave
- Event : this type informs interested persons about the possibility of organizing or going to an employee event
- Training : this type of request informs Decision Maker about potential employee or departmental training
- Purchase : this type informs the user about the purchase of e.g. new equipment needed for work
- Benefit : this type informs the user about the application for certain allowances and benefits for employees
- Other : this type can be entered by the user if neither of the types matches the above-mentioned ones
Apart from the module list, all applications are visible in the emplyees module. After entering the record of the user who has the application, go to the Applications sub-panel, all applications related to the user are visible on it. User can create applications in two ways. One of them is creating records directly in the module, the second is adding records from the subpanel available in the employees module
