WRITE: Create a department (部署). Give the parent department id to nest it. Returns the created department.

Discovered
smarthr_create_dependent

WRITE: Register a dependent (家族情報) for an employee. Needs the relation id from smarthr_list_dependent_relations. Returns the created dependent without pension number, income or documents.

Discovered
smarthr_create_employee

WRITE: Register a new employee (従業員) in SmartHR. Nothing is sent to the employee; to invite them to fill in their own data use smarthr_invite_employee afterwards. Only the fields you give are set.

Discovered
smarthr_invite_employee

WRITE, SENDS AN EMAIL: Invite an employee to SmartHR. SmartHR emails the address stored on the employee (the employee must have one) an invitation to create their login and, with an input form, to fill in their own data.
