eHR Tab

The eHR tab contains settings that control eHR's functions.

Options Reference

Each option and field on the form is described below. Mandatory options and fields are highlighted in red.

Show Balance in Days

The balances in eHR display in hours by default. Select this option to display an additional column that shows the balances in days.

Email approvers when a Leave Request is submitted

Select this option to email the approvers when a leave request is submitted using eHR.

Allow employees to change expense bank details

Select this option to enable employees to change their bank account details for expenses. This option is enabled when eTimesheets is enabled.

Pay Slip Printing

Select the format in which to print pay slips when printing pay detail from eHR:

html - The pay slip displays as a web page.
pdf - The Greentree Desktop Task Queue creates a PDF file. You must specify the folder in which to save the file.

File path

This path is used as a temporary file storage for the pay slips when they are generated in eHR. When pay slips are cached on the server, a copy of the pay slip is kept in this directory. This directory is on the database server and needs to be secure as it contains details of pays.

Waiting time for Task Queue

The waiting time determines how long eHR waits before it returns the PDF from the task queue.

If the waiting time is:

Not high enough and the task has not finished processing, then the PDF is returned to eHR and displays to be corrupt.
Too long, then the user waits for the PDF to be returned even if the PDF has finished processing.

Cache pay slip on the server

Select this option to keep a copy of the PDF on the server.

If you don't select this option, Greentree Desktop doesn't save a copy of the PDF. This reduces the load on the server each time a duplicate pay slip is printed. When you select this option, the File path set above must be secure.

Custom Links

Select this option to include links to other websites on your eHR login page. If you select this option, enter the Link Name and the URL of the website to link to.

In eHR, a Links topic displays on the Summary form when users log into eHR.

Allow editing of payment defaults

Select this option to enable users to select banking options through eHR.

Use this table to select the balance type transaction types available for viewing balances in eHR.
