There needs to be a way to clone an assignment with the add-ons instead of manually entering the add-ons each time if the employee is transferring to another location. The employee has 12 add-ons and that number will continue to grow each year.

Requisition itemization
Allow for an indicator during the requisition process to mark a line item on a PO as a capital asset. The allow for reporting to compile any PO including a capital asset. This would be incredibly beneficial at year end for Fixed Assets reporting.

PO Footer set up to be able to accept full urls
We recently decided we'd like to add a hyperlink to the terms and conditions of our POs to the footer of our PO. Our Purchasing Specialist had requested input from other districts as to how they handled this. Several districts sent over sample POs, but I found that none of their links work, as they exceed the 45 character limit per line. (I'm pretty sure they don't realize they aren't working)
On my end, I tried to break up the url so it would work - but since the lines in the footer section are completely separate, this didn't work.…1 vote -
ACH direct deposit email notice to vendors should include an excel file of the invoice information
The body of an ACH direct deposit email notice to vendors is a list of the invoice number, description, invoice date, and amount for each invoice that is included in an ACH payment. Many vendors have requested an excel file of the invoice information so that they can download a file, rather than hand enter our payment information into their system.

Add light horizontal lines to reports (Individual lines)
It would be great if reports could have a light line across each line - it's sometimes easy to lose your place/line in a report with many lines. Thank you for considering this idea

Update Daily Register Template to Allow for Current Date Logic
Update the Daily Register processing template with "Today - XX Days" logic as in many of the report templates, and apply this as a 'cut-off' date for building attendance records.
Rationale: Skyward does not recommend building future attendance records, which requires LEAs to specify a cutoff date within the current term so that the Daily Register stops processing records after that date and does not build future attendance records. EdFi best practices are to run a scheduled task to update records every night.
Concern: The only method currently available to an LEA to meet both best practices is to update…

MFA when accessing W2 information
Challenge: Hackers accessing end user employee access accounts and garnering W2 information. Keep all W2 information hidden and instead of keying in SSN to access W2, use MFA. When access is given to W2, send auto notification as banks due even access is given.
1 voteThank you for submitting the product idea!
We are looking for more information on this idea - is your district currently using MFA for Employee Access?
If not, what are the concerns of having this enabled for Employee Access entirely?
The option to add an email notification when W2s are accessed is a possibility, as well as masking the W2 info. Would it be the browse we are looking to mask?
Thank you!

Online Form Next Tab to be renamed Completed on last Step
Our Lump Sum Online Form did not progress to Completed because the employee did not select the tab marked Next. It did show when they were in progress status at Step 1 and Step 2. But once both Steps were chosen it reversed back to Status Not Started because the last Step requires the employee to choose the Next Tab. We would like this changed so that the Next Step Tab is not required to be completed or the Tab to be renamed "Submit"

OCR to populate form fields
I'm curious if there is, or can be, integration to utilize OCR functionality from our Canon MFP's to perform functions such as populating Check Requests data fields. The intention would be to scan an invoice and use OCR to populate fields on the CR entry screen rather than users doing so. It would increase efficiency by not requiring users to enter data points that can be pulled off the document. It would also cut down on keying errors as less keystrokes would be required by the user.

Be able to view pcard transaction attachments under the vendor tab
When processing pcard transactions, I take advantage of designating each transaction to the specific vendor. Really easy for referring later on. However, the attachment cannot be viewed from the vendor tab - you see the purchase and accounting info but not the attachment. Would be GREAT to have this. It is easy to remember where you purchased something and go to the vendor tab for an attachment made by check or ACH. Why not for Pcards? If not that, anything under the vendor tab, that you can access these attachments easily

Having a utility to mass change how staff receive W2 to be cleared out and not hang onto historical selections
Currently skyward hangs onto what an employee has selected for receiving their W2 (electronic vs. paper copy) Staff seem very confused about when they may have selected electronic vs. paper copy. For that reason, I would love the option to run a utility to clear this our so each year staff are required to choose electronic vs. paper and historical selections are not part of this.

Enable importing data for bulk check requests and vendor adds/changes
Enable importing data for bulk check requests and vendor adds/changes to expedite data entry when a large batch of checks for individual vendors (families) needs to be entered. Every year we have transportation contracts that require check requests for hundreds of private school families. They've had to be entered one at a time, along with vendor creation and updating, usually in a rush timeframe. Every year, this feature will create a huge time/labor cost savings and make it more reliable for us and Fiscal Services to meet the end of fiscal year deadline. The business need isn't going away. We…

We do have the vendor import which is located through Web Financial Management > Vendor > Product Setup > Utilities > Vendor Import where you can setup a .csv file.
As for the check requests, would it be expected that there are multiple detail lines on a single check request or a check request for each vendor?
Thank you for your additional input!

Auto fill wufar code for vendors when paying bills
When paying bills it would be nice if previous Wufar codes would automatically load, since so many codes stay the same...at least for smaller schools.

Vendors browse
Vendor browse should include the contract tab for employees to easily see employee contact information & Cooperative to reference all in one location.
1 voteThank you for submitting the product idea!
The Contract Information tab is currently available through the Vendor Browse, it is located under the drop down arrow next to the vendor name. I have included a screenshot below for you to view where this is accessible from.
Please let us know if this isn't the option you are looking for.

User Backup Options
In other systems (like ASCENDER) when you run "major" processes the system will prompt the user to create and download a backup. If a user made a mistake or the system did not perform a process as intended the user could import the backup through a system utility and it would only revert that specific user's data. The user could then re-attempt the process. Currently, if a backup is needed it reverts all users data back to a specific point and time. Because our organization is so massive and there's lots of daily data entry/processes run, we could not expect…

Employee Access / Address / Request Changes
Could there be an option to select which addresses employees would like to change when an Address Request Change is entered? Possibly check boxes beside all available Addresses for them to select the ones to update upon approval? Thanks!
1 voteThank you for submitting the product idea!
We would like some additional clarification on this
Currently, employees can request to change their primary or their mailing address and they can be requested to be changed independently. It may depend on how your request changes configuration is setup.
Or would you expect 1 request for an address change instead of 2?
Thank you!

Would love the ability to mass add add-ons by individual names as an option to choosing, for us, generic parameters.
We use the mass add of add-ons utility every year. It's quite cumbersome to get a preview and have to go and delete every record off the preview that should not receive the particular add-on. It would be nice to have the option to choose specific names to receive the add-on.

Add a place on the Standard Report card to add a name instead of all the same "Standard Report Card" with the date they were posted.
Add a place on the Standard Report card to add a name instead of all the same "Standard Report Card" with the date they were posted. Example 2025 1st 6 weeks report card.
