Fred Doc 01

FrED is small web based application developed in house at FF for following reasons(needs).

• Employee Attendance Management
• Employee Performance Rating system.
• Employee Holidays consumption
• Employee Overtime monitoring.
• Making all above transparent / clear to user in team. so one can compare his week over other team members etc.

I wasn't sure, it will help me that much to keep moral high, if i had idea, we have done it earlier. I can imagine huge / small open source HR systems, but truly wasn't sure, its worth searching as i was more sure about what i expected as employee in last 15 years.

Ali (colleague) worked on it as developer, i helped him design / conceive details. Its written in python(entirely).

Application scope:

• Server app (using flask) - deployed on local server (Ubuntu)
• Client app (using pyside)- deployed on each node ( OS boot)  

Hopefully will be our first contribution to open source some day if it gets bit more completion for user roles management, currently a bit hard-coded in sq-lite.

User Experience:

• as person boots OS (client app, opens from tray, ask to mark in for logged user or request to log in)
• or person can open server from browser (http://server:5000) and do same process
• browser also shows a simple unique new quote (inspiration)
• person can view his details average (Time In / Out / Working Hours)
• person can view his/her leaves / working hours etc
• person can view his performance comparing to his relevant team.
• supervisors can mark reporting ppl performance per week

RULES for performance

• 2.5 score - come one time (limit 10 am) 24 hours late per week total limit to lose that score.
• 2.5 score - complete 48 working hours (minimum)
• 5.0 score - review from supervisor on assigned tasks
• 1.0 score - extra measure supervisor have.
• user can score 11 / 10 if performed really well and on time.:)

Python Client
it has only 3 intentions initially and was working fine, then we broke some features in mid, and hopefully will come back soon.

• show pop up as pc gets on (user won't forget to mark TimeIn)
• work as central tool to maintain updates of all art tools customization from server (blender/natron/maya/nuke)
• also integrate with tactic in future(hopefully soon)
• lastly, some secret features(which every knows in team,lols) on which i don't have consensuses with senior team, (taking screen shots / measuring social activity vs real work differentiation)
