HR Initial Set-up

The order that makes the HR module work end to end for a new company:

1. Departments, job titles, ranks — Settings → HR lookups. Ranks carry a weight (seniority) used across HR.
2. Working period — working hours per weekday and overtime rate; attendance maths depends on it.
3. Leave types & allocations — see Leave Configuration; allocate days per rank or per employee.
4. Employees — add or bulk-upload your people, with department, rank, manager and status set.
5. Management roles — assign who approves leave and who holds discipline authority.
6. Discipline catalogue — seeded automatically; review it under Discipline → Setup.
7. Portal invitations — send from the Employee List so staff can activate self-service.
8. Attendance device / notifications — if you clock with a device, register it under Attendance Device.
