When I had some spare time I thought about doing a web based flexi time
application. Employees could key in and key out at their desktop. The app
would use implement the flexible working rules in the business, producing
reports for managers on the status of the employees time keeping, who broke
the rules, how much time has been accrued etc.
Not sure it is a distributed application and I'm not sure it would warrent
the use of EJBs. As a technical/traing exercise it has many elements, EJBs,
web apps (servlets/JSP), email intergration perhaps. You could explore
alternative data accesses such as JDO/straight JDBC or even sack a RDBMS and
use prevailer.
I never got it off the ground as I found work pretty quickly.
