Hi Cloé, What you're talking about is in essence a payroll solution. Yes, this can be built on top of OFBiz. There are enough pieces of functionality in the feature set to get you started. But you have to keep in mind that payrolling is one of the most sensitive business domains in any

Hello community I've got some questions about the OFBiz hot-deploy functionality. I had a look at the Apache OFBiz Cookbook and also searched the Web for information about it. Now I got something from 2008 and 2013 with completly different content. So I guess here is the best place to ask for
