getCompanyId()

Extract company ID from various model types.

protected static getCompanyId(mixed $model) : int

This method attempts to determine the company ID from the provided model instance.

It checks for a direct company_id property or navigates through related employee models.

Parameters
$model : mixed

Model instance

Tags
throws
Exception

When company ID cannot be determined

Return values
int

Company ID

getUserId()

Get the current authenticated user ID, or fallback to job context user ID.

protected static getUserId() : int

This method first checks for an authenticated user via the auth() helper. If no user is authenticated, it looks for a user_id in the job context (for queued jobs).

To add a user ID to the job context, you can use this in your job setup:

 app()->instance('job_context', ['user_id' => $userId]);

If neither is available, it returns 0 to indicate a system action.

Return values
int

The determined user ID, or 0 if none found
