HELP_HR.xml HELP_HR_main.xml
Posted by Sharan Foga <sh...@gmail.com>.
Hi Adrian / Ron
Thanks very much for the feedback.
I was just trying to get back into updating the online help by doing a
small commit first. I did enter a commit message but made a mistake on
the text editor so it wasn't included. I immediately checked the commit
and saw the commit message was missing so contacted Jacques, who helpful
as always, added it for me.
For the help pages themselves, I'm doing a copy and paste from Tom's
original guide and found that a few of the docbook tags he used don't
render at all in the content manager display so I was more focussed on
getting it to display than the grammar. In future, I'll try to do at
least a basic grammar check but I think it will be too difficult for me
to do a full review at this stage.
I think that getting the content pages into the online help structure is
the most important. Once they are there, we can do full reviews of
grammar, consistency, etc and anyone that does have any updates or
corrections will be able to submit a patch.
Thanks
Sharan

Ron,
It would have been less typing to make the changes on your local copy
and then submit a patch.

Re: svn commit: r1653248 - in /ofbiz/trunk/applications/humanres/data/helpdata:
HELP_HR.xml HELP_HR_main.xml
Posted by Ron Wheeler <rw...@artifact-software.com>.
I see a couple of grammar errors and some small quibbles about wording.
"its" is the possessive
"it's" is the contraction of "it is"
"company's" is the possessive of company
"Human Resource application (HR App)" and "the core to HR App" -
inconsistent capitalization
"the positions fulfillments" -> "the position's fulfillments" or "the
positions' fulfillments" (ambiguous 1 or more positions) or better
"fulfillment of positions".
"Fulfill" is an action of hiring or promoting done by managers or HR
professionals. "Fulfillment" is the completion of a hiring act.
"Filled" or "occupied" describes the state of a position.
"Incumbent" is the person who fills a position.
Fill or Occupy is what a person does to a position.
mixture of future and present tense makes the reading a bit difficult
"Main window is the entry point" is followed by
"screen will show" which should be "screen shows"
(future makes it seem that this will only happen in a future release
of the software. unless you add "When you click on X, the screen will show")
full filled -> fulfilled
See above
The Company and departments under the Company can have children
departments ->
The Company and departments under the Company can have child departments
"child" is an adjective and in English, adjectives don't get pluralized
as they do in French or other languages!
<para>There are three node types in the tree, each identified by a
different icon. The top of the tree represents your Company, the
highest level in the HR App organization. The Company and departments
under the Company can have children departments or positions. Under
positions are the people who fulfill the position.</para>
starts by talking about node types and icons but then ignores the types
and icons and discusses level.
"Under positions are the people who fulfill the position."
several issues - Mixture of singluar and plural.
"The people who fill(occupy) the position are shown(or entered) under
each position." might be better.
"If the item is a position you can add a person to fulfill the position."
Fulfill is a hiring or promotion activity in HR so it sounds like you
are adding a person or persons who will hold that position in the
future.(talent pool)
I wonder if you just mean that you can add the person who occupies the
position.
Perhaps it might be helpful to establish a glossary of terms to use to
describe navigation, tree structures, etc.
This would help lead to a consistency in the description of things or
actions that would help the user to be more certain about what each term
or action actually mean.
Sticking to a default tense when describing what the system does (or
will do) also makes it easier to read.

Hi Pierre
At the moment I'm just doing a copy and paste from Tom's original guide
- so these are his words.
I'm currently focussed on getting the content pages into the online help
structure and once they are there, we can do full reviews of
terminology, grammar, consistency, etc. I think it will also makes it
more accessible to anyone that wants to help update it by submitting
patches.
Thanks
Sharan

HI Sharan,
I suggest you don't use wordings like child departments. Though it is
fairly common to refer to an organisational structure in human wordings, it
isn't the best way to describe the relationship. Yes, often terminology
like 'parent and daughter company' is used to define a legal entity and one
of its subsidiaries. But not to describe the hierarchy (relations) of the
internal organisation to its departments and other organs. Like we don't
use brother or sister departments, child department sounds wrong. Better is
to use terminology like sub departments.
Best regards,
Pierre Smits
