Entertainment payroll company application for S.C.E. Broadcast Corporation

 Creating an entertainment payroll application involves several components, including employee management, payroll processing, and reporting features. Below is a simple Ruby application example to get you started. This application will cover basic functionality for managing employees and computing their payroll.


This is a basic command-line application, and for a production-level application, you would generally want to use a framework like Ruby on Rails and a database like PostgreSQL or MySQL.


### Simple Entertainment Payroll Application in Ruby


```ruby

# payroll_app.rb


class Employee

  attr_accessor :name, :role, :hourly_rate, :hours_worked


  def initialize(name, role, hourly_rate)

    @name = name

    @role = role

    @hourly_rate = hourly_rate

    @hours_worked = 0

  end


  def add_hours(hours)

    @hours_worked += hours

  end


  def calculate_pay

    @hourly_rate * @hours_worked

  end

end


class Payroll

  def initialize

    @employees = []

  end


  def add_employee(employee)

    @employees << employee

    puts "#{employee.name} added to the payroll."

  end


  def process_payroll

    puts "Processing Payroll..."

    @employees.each do |employee|

      pay = employee.calculate_pay

      puts "#{employee.name} (#{employee.role}) - Total Pay: $#{pay}"

      employee.hours_worked = 0 # Reset hours worked after processing

    end

  end

end


# Sample Application Usage

payroll_system = Payroll.new


# Adding Employees

employee1 = Employee.new("Alice", "Actor", 50)

employee2 = Employee.new("Bob", "Stagehand", 20)


payroll_system.add_employee(employee1)

payroll_system.add_employee(employee2)


# Recording Hours Worked

employee1.add_hours(30) # Alice worked 30 hours

employee2.add_hours(40) # Bob worked 40 hours


# Processing Payroll

payroll_system.process_payroll

```


### How to Run This Application


1. **Install Ruby**: Make sure you have Ruby installed. You can check this by running `ruby -v` in your terminal.


2. **Create a File**: Open your text editor/IDE, create a new file named `payroll_app.rb`.


3. **Copy the Code**: Copy the above Ruby code into your file.


4. **Run the Application**: Open a terminal, navigate to the directory containing the `payroll_app.rb` file, and run:

   ```bash

   ruby payroll_app.rb

   ```


This will output:

```

Alice added to the payroll.

Bob added to the payroll.

Processing Payroll...

Alice (Actor) - Total Pay: $1500

Bob (Stagehand) - Total Pay: $800

```


### Feature Enhancements


This is a simple foundational example. Below are some potential enhancements to consider:


- **Persistence**: Store employee and payroll information in a database instead of in-memory.

- **User Interface**: Create a web interface using Ruby on Rails or Sinatra.

- **Employee Types**: Support various types of pay (salaried, freelance).

- **Tax Calculations**: Include tax calculations for a more realistic payroll system.

- **Overtime Handling**: Implement rules for overtime pay rates.

- **Reports**: Generate reports for payroll history.

- **Error Handling**: Add validation and error handling to ensure valid inputs.


This should give you a solid starting point for developing an entertainment payroll application in Ruby. Feel free to expand and modify the application based on your specific needs.
