> This Jira has been created to manage the migration of all the documentation 
> from the Webhelp branch into the current help system so that it will work 
> with what we already have (essentially so that we dont lose it!).  The 
> original issue for the Webhelp is 
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-4941
> As well as HR, there is also online documentation for Accounting, 
> Manufacturing (English, German and Dutch), Project Manager and Catalog - 
> though not as complete, so I will be consolidating and moving those too. The 
> files use the docbook format and are compatible with what we have although he 
> implemented everything into one file (i.e book) per module. I now think this 
> is the better way to go.
> Update as at July 2015
> ==================
> The original code from the Webhelp branch was updated and converted to an 
> OFBiz addon. 
> The addon was created from the Webhelp branch but is setup as an addon.
> To see a what the webhelp will look like and function like. 
> Go to https://demo.ofbizextra.org/accounting/control/main
> Login as admin/ofbiz
> Select HR and then click the help button (The docbook webhelp should be 
> displayed)
> As well as using docbook and webhelp for displaying it. Some additonal 
> funcitonality has been added. These are as follows:
> 1) There are some ant targets created (e.g. ant webhelp, clean-webhelp)
> 2) There is a flag setup to indicate whether a module has webhelp or uses 
> OFBiz standard help (i.e. what we are using now). 
> To test it on the ofbizextra demo 
> Select Facilities and then click the help button (The normal OFBiz help menu 
> is displayed because no webhelp exists for this module)
> I think this could be good thing as we convert the existing documentation 
> from the current online help format to the webhelp because it wont break 
> anything and leaves the option open for people who are using the existing 
> help system.
> 3) There is also some functionality related to language that looks at the 
> language of the user to see if the webhelp exists in that language. If it 
> doesn't there is a message saying so but that documentation exists in another 
> language 
> The addon uses the patch Files. (.patch) I think this is because the addon 
> tries to maintain compatibility with different OFBiz versions but I think 
> it's still just xml or java code.
> I have done an initial (non technical) analysis of the files and attached 
> that too
