-=========
-

-Templates
----------
-
-Contract templates are used when sending an offer to a candidate.
-The contract template forms the basis of an offer, and can be modified for specific candidates or
-employees, when necessary. If a contract template is created or modified in the *Payroll*
-application, the changes are also reflected in the *Recruitment* application.
-
-.. important::
-   To access contract templates, the *Salary Configurator* (`hr_contract_salary`) module **must** be
-   :ref:`installed <general/install>`.
-
-To view all the current contract templates in the database, navigate to :menuselection:`Payroll app
---> Configuration --> Contracts: Templates`.
-
-On the :guilabel:`Contract Templates` page, all current contract templates appear in a list view. To
-view the details of a contract template, click anywhere on the line to open the contract form. The
-contract template can be modified from this form. Proceed to make any desired changes to the
-contract.
-
-To create a new contract template, click the :guilabel:`New` button. Then, enter the following
-information on the blank contract template form that appears:
-
-- :guilabel:`Contract Reference`: enter a brief description for the template. This should be clear
-  and easily understood, as this name appears in the *Recruitment* application, as well.
-- :guilabel:`Working Schedule`: select the desired working schedule the contract applies to from the
-  drop-down menu. If a new working schedule is needed, create a :ref:`new working schedule
-  <payroll/new-working-schedule>`.
-- :guilabel:`Work Entry Source`: select how the work entries are generated. Choices are either:
-
-  - :guilabel:`Working Schedule`: work entries are generated based on the selected working schedule.
-  - :guilabel:`Attendances`: work entries are generated based on the employee's attendance, as they
-    are logged in the *Attendances* application. Refer to the :ref:`Attendances
-    <attendances/check-in>` documentation for information on checking in and out.
-  - :guilabel:`Planning`: work entries are generated based on the employee's planning in the
-    *Planning* application.
-
-- :guilabel:`Salary Structure Type`: select the :ref:`salary structure type
-  <payroll/structure-types>` from the drop-down menu.
-- :guilabel:`Department`: select the department the contract template applies to from the drop-down
-  menu. If blank, the template applies to all departments.
-- :guilabel:`Job Position`: select the :ref:`job position <payroll/job-positions>` the contract
-  template applies to from the drop-down menu. If blank, the template applies to all job positions.
-- :guilabel:`Wage on Payroll`: enter the monthly wage in the field.
-- :guilabel:`Contract Type`: select the type of contract from the drop-down menu. This list is the
-  same as the :ref:`Employment Types <payroll/employment-types>`.
-- :guilabel:`HR Responsible`: select the employee responsible for validating contracts, using this
-  template, from the drop-down menu.
-- :guilabel:`New Contract Document Template`: select a default document that a new employee has to
-  sign to accept an offer.
