Re: [Health] Unable to Install Payroll Module

[Khurram Shahzad]

Dear Luis,

Thank you very much for your response.

You are right about the breaking of system as I became victim of it after installing some non-gnu health modules.

GNU Health and other Tryton Module provide almost every thing for automating all the departments of a hospital. But, Payroll is missing which is really important. It would be really nice if we can add basic generic payroll module to GNU Health.

How can I contact Oscar from Presik? Our finance department is pushing us hard for an integrated payroll system. Can you suggest any other alternative?

I am also unable to uninstall some modules in the test environment which broke the system. Is there any utility which can uninstall the tryton module and revert the database changes?

Thanking you in anticipation.

Best Regards,

Khurram.

I guess you're talking about Presik payroll module. That module is
not part of GNU Health, and I don't think is an official Tryton module
either. For what I can see, also, the latest version is for server 3.4,
which is not compatible with GNU Health 3.0. In any case, our friend
Oscar from Presik can help.

As a sidenote, although you can install any module that is not standard
from the GNU Health base, you should be very careful, because it can
break the system. Also, remember to install non-standard modules for GNU
Health under the "modules/local" directory.

Finally, we could start a discussion about incorporating a native
Payroll module for GNU Health, if the community is interested. Payroll
is quite complex, and very specific to each country, but we could set
up the basis for a generic module.

All the best
