Clicking on the Create button will bring up the form for you to begin entering a new employee into OpenERP.
The only required field in the employee form is Name. All the other fields are optional. OpenERP will default the working address to be the same as the company address. While most fields are self-explanatory, we will go over several of the more important fields to take into consideration.
Let us first have a look at the fields under the Public Information tab.
In the Contact Information section, the Related User field will allow you to associate the employee with a user account in OpenERP. Simply click on the drop-down list and choose the user you want associated with the employee. It is also possible to add users on-the-fly by choosing Create… from the Related User drop down.
