HR Reminder customization

Zeeshan_Baig · April 22, 2024, 9:53am

Hello community,

I was wondering is there a way to customize the reminders for birthdays and anniversary in the HR Settings?
I want to send a customize email only to the employee whose birthday we are celebrating rather than the all of them.

Thanks

Hi @Zeeshan_Baig,

That for, you have to customize the below method according to the scenario.

frappe/hrms/blob/0d3e70a3563bb8376057a064dd6b1142f7d5e014/hrms/controllers/employee_reminders.py#L87


      
          			holidays=holidays,
          			frequency=frequency[:-2],
          		),
          		header=email_header,
          	)
          
          
          # ------------------
          # BIRTHDAY REMINDERS
          # ------------------
          def send_birthday_reminders():
          	"""Send Employee birthday reminders if no 'Stop Birthday Reminders' is not set."""
          
          	to_send = int(frappe.db.get_single_value("HR Settings", "send_birthday_reminders"))
          	if not to_send:
          		return
          
          	sender = get_sender_email()
          	employees_born_today = get_employees_who_are_born_today()
          
          	for company, birthday_persons in employees_born_today.items():

Do I have to copy the above code snippet and paste it? Or do I need to customize it? And how can I customize the message which is being sent automatically by the HR module? and I guess it sends the celebration message to all the employees how to limit it to a single employee.

Hi @Zeeshan_Baig,

Provided reference is the default code currently running in the system. However, if you want to set the scenario to specific needs, you must first create a custom app and then override the functionality according to your requirements.
