### Apache OFBiz User Manual Version trunk Summary

1. **UI Design Issue**
- The Employment subOption in the User Interface is missing a required field (`emplFromDate`), causing incorrect UI behavior.
- Solution: Add `emplFromDate` from the Employment entity to resolve the issue.

2. **CreateEmployee Functionality**
- Creating an employee should establish an `Employment` (a subtype of `PartyRelationship`) instead of a general `PartyRelationship`.
- The screen and service need to be updated to ensure the creation of an `Employment` record and the first `PayHistory`.

3. **Functional Enhancement**
- **Valid Responsibility Entity**:
- The `ValidResponsibility` feature exists but lacks a menu entry.
- Proposed actions:
1. Add a menu entry for `ValidResponsibility` under the `Employee Position Type` submenu in Global HR Settings.
2. Update screen definitions to include `GlobalHR` decorators and highlighted buttons (tracked in JIRA OFBIZ-11045).

4. **Data Model and Entity**
- The `Resume` entity is a simplified version of the concept described in Appendix B.
- Key fields like `fromDate` and `tentAssocTypeId` are part of the primary key, requiring careful handling to avoid conflicts.

5. **Documentation System**
- **AsciiDoc**:
- Documents are generated from `.adoc` files located in component directories (`src/docs/asciidoc`).
- Main documents (e.g., `user-manual`, `developer-manual`) are built from these files.
- Wiki is an alternative for contributing documentation.
- **Help Links**:
- Point to the generated user manual via the buildbot process.
