Crewing Use Cases

Authoritative build spec: Crewing Implementation Spec carries the full reconciled instructions (codebase changes, roles/nav matrices, screen spec). This page is the actor/use-case catalogue, aligned with that spec.

Actors and the use cases each can perform. The diagram uses a flowchart to approximate UML use-case notation (Mermaid has no native use-case diagram); actors are on the edges, use cases are rounded nodes, grouped by area.

Site staff = PM / APM / Site In-charge only — the sole on-site logins. Every other on-vessel rank is a crew member / data subject with no account; site staff act on their behalf. Crew members are not actors here.

2. Use-case catalogue

ID Use case Primary actor Pre-condition Main success outcome
UC-01 Raise requisition MPO / Manager a rank is or will be vacant Requisition(OPEN) created, MPO notified
UC-01b Request relief cover Site staff a foreseen cover gap ReliefRequest(OPEN); office converts it into a requisition
UC-02 Auto-requisition on sign-off System crew member signed off requisition raised automatically; experience updated
UC-03 Cancel requisition Manager requisition not yet filled CANCELLED with reason
UC-04 Apply with CV Candidate careers form reachable CrewMember(PROSPECT) + application; CV parsed or manual
UC-05 Shortlist candidates MPO requisition OPEN applications SHORTLISTED; ex-hands preferred
UC-06 Run vetting gates MPO candidate shortlisted competency/document/experience gates recorded
UC-07 Reference check MPO candidate in vetting reference result recorded
UC-08 Propose & interview MPO gates cleared proposal sent; interview result recorded — ex-hand interview waivable only with Manager approval
UC-09 Select / reject with remarks MPO records, Manager approves interview done or Manager-approved waiver SELECTED (Manager-approved) or REJECTED + remarks
UC-10 Approve salary structure & candidate list Manager candidate proposed salary structure approved
UC-11 Onboard candidate MPO / Manager candidate selected CrewAssignment(ACTIVE); salary/victualing/attendance/experience/PF/PPE started; employeeId issued; requisition FILLED
UC-12 Apply for leave (for a crew member) Site in-charge crew has active assignment LeaveRequest(APPLIED) on the crew member's assignment
UC-12b Approve / reject leave Manager leave applied APPROVED → assignment ON_LEAVE (clash auto-raises a requisition); or REJECTED
UC-13 View leave planner Site staff / Manager timeline of contracts + leaves per site (the MPO has no leave access)
UC-14 Record attendance Site staff active assignment daily Attendance rows (visible to site staff + Manager; not the MPO)
UC-15 Issue PPE Site staff active assignment PpeIssue with size (boiler suit/shoes)
UC-16 Upload documents / EPF / next-of-kin / emergency Site staff crew exists records created PENDING verification
UC-17 Verify docs / PPE / NoK MPO pending records exist VERIFIED (everything except attendance and leave)
UC-18 Verify bank & EPF Accounts pending bank/EPF VERIFIED; UAN/Aadhaar checked vs EPFO
UC-19 Raise appraisal Site staff (PM) active assignment Appraisal(SUBMITTED)
UC-20 Verify appraisal MPO appraisal submitted MPO_VERIFIED
UC-21 Approve appraisal Manager appraisal verified MANAGER_APPROVED
UC-22 Generate wage report Manager / system month end WageReport(GENERATED) per site
UC-23 Approve wage report Manager report generated MANAGER_APPROVEDSENT_TO_ACCOUNTS
UC-24 View / export wage report Accounts / Manager report sent XLSX/PDF export for disbursement
UC-25 Manage ranks & doc requirements Admin rank hierarchy + per-rank required documents
UC-26 Auto-requisition on leave clash System approved leaves overlap below a rank's required strength Requisition(OPEN, reason=LEAVE, autoRaised); MPO notified

3. Notable extensions / alternates

  • UC-04 alt — CV not parseable → manual field entry (never blocks intake).
  • UC-06/07/09 alt — any gate fails → REJECTED with remarks; application ends, requisition stays open for other candidates.
  • UC-08 alt — returning ex-hand → MPO requests an interview waiver; on Manager approval interviewWaived = true (never automatic).
  • UC-11 alt — joining formalities incomplete (no signed contract / unapproved salary) → onboarding blocked.
  • UC-16/17 alt — verifier rejects a record → back to PENDING with remarks for the site to correct.
  • UC-22 alt — attendance gaps flagged before generation; report can be regenerated until approved.
  • UC-12 note — crew are data subjects, not portal users, so the Site in-charge applies leave on their behalf (apply-only; the Manager decides it — the MPO has no leave role).
  • UC-14 note — attendance is recorded by site staff and reviewed by the Manager; the MPO has no attendance access (so the wage report, UC-22, is generated by the Manager / month-end job, not the MPO).
  • UC-26 — a leave clash (overlapping approved leaves below a rank's required strength) auto-raises a LEAVE requisition; same backfill path as UC-02.
