Allow Time Off to be allocated to 2 different pay codes
Allow Time Off to be allocated to 2 different pay codes. Example: an employee that works as a bus driver and an aide will need time off for both pay codes and there is not great option to do this.

TImesheet Approvals
It would be helpful for timesheet approvers to be able to mass approve timesheets even if they are over or under the scheduled hours. It is time consuming to have to look at each time sheet if required to approve it.
1 voteThank you for submitting this idea.
It would be helpful for us to know what Timekeeping Rules you currently have set up at your district. There may be some adjustments you can make that would no longer require approvers to review each one that is over or under scheduled hours.
We suggest reviewing the options highlighted in the attached screenshot. If these options are set at your district it will prevent mass approval of timesheets.

True Time Exception Report
On the True Time Exception Report it would be helpful to have an option for employees who are not clocking in/out for lunch. We have quite a few number of employees who are doing this and we need to correct the issue with them.

Have you tried creating a Data Mining Report where the Total Hours worked are greater than a certain amount, but the lunch hour duration is less than a certain amount?
It could looks something like the attached example.

Taxable Life Insurance Warning
There should be a warning that pops up on your first payroll in December (or even all payrolls in December) that reminds you to include the taxable benefit for group life insurance over $50K. This is a very common error that could be mostly avoided if there was a small pop-up that just reminded you to do it. For those that do it each payroll it would be a small annoyance, but for the people that do it once a year it could save a tone of time. Both for the employer and Skyward support during a very busy time…

Pre-populate pay period/payroll dates
When doing the payroll processing, you need to enter the payroll date, posting date, pay period, etc all manually. These dates could easily be automatically filled in. the way I would suggest to do this is to use the "Run Numbers" that are currently in the payroll system and just add some additional settings that would like you select the frequency (weekly, biweekly, monthly, etc). Based on the frequency selected and a calendar the system could determine what the dates would be. This would help everyone that does payroll to be more efficient and less likely to have a typing…

Ability to RE-NAME rate table codes in Sub Tracking
We would like to RE-NAME some of our rate table codes in Sub Tracking. In other areas of the software I rename deduction/benefit/pay codes/Employee Management Plans with a "Z" in front of it, so that it doesn't even appear in my browse. Thank you for your consideration. I submitted SC 4911174 and it's not available and they suggested submitting an idea.
5 votesThank you for submitting this idea.
The Rate Tables are a combination of Employee Type & Sub Type. Have you tried changing the Employee Type Code and/or the Sub Type Code to re-name one of the rate table codes in Sub Tracking?
Thank you.

Under SBAA it would be nice to be able to print a group of check detail reports individually
Currently I can print a report under check request report. But it prints all of the checks in the range on one sheet. It would be SO HELPFUL if it gave us the option to print each check report separately rather than as a group

Limit TO by code and employee type
Our teacher’s group has contractual cap for personal days. No more than 3% from this group can use a personal leave on any given day. Right now I need to pull a time tracker report and manually crosscheck the number of requests. It is very time consuming and it would be helpful to have the system prevent entering requests when the limit is reached.

Ded/Ben Set Up = Single
Having a deduction and benefit code check type be set up as single. Currently having to manually make this edit each payroll. The current choices for set up are regular, wire, hold and blank. We also tried having the set up check type as blank and set the default check type to single on the vendor profile and the check type turned to H (hold). Just hoping to save a step or if it is accidentally forgotten to manually update.

TRS ED45 able to enter Multiple records in the same month
TRS TX ED45 able to enter Multiple records in the same reporting month. For example is for subs that the ED45 records is created for each month. If an error is made and I need to delete multiple months I have to do an ED45 record for each month. Skyward only allows one ED45 record per month. I have to submit the record in the TRS portal. Then go into the ED45 change the information to the next month submit the record.

It has been passed on to our State and Federal Compliance Department to review.

Re-open Credit Card transaction in batch status
It would be nice if at the district office level, we could re-open/unlock a credit card transaction that someone has hit the "approved" button on. There are many times when someone makes a mistake and would like to fix, but only one of us in the district offices can do it through PAC on the back end. I would like to be able to open it back up for them to fix on the web side.

Unsubmitted Timesheet - Notification should also send email to employee.
With the new enhancement in the TT Timekeeping Rule > Timesheet submission, if we check 'Display Notification Alert to Employee' and set a threshold (for us we entered '2 weeks'), it places the yellow-circle+exlclamation point on the employee's Employee Access toolbar, but in our district, no one is seeing this very small notification. It is basically meaningless. Can this same functionality be taken one step further and have the system auto-generate an email to the employee stating they have unsubmitted timesheets? Thank you

Employee Pseudo Approval Email Confirmations
When approving or denying items in the Employee Pseudo Approval section, it would be great if an email was sent to the employee confirming the approval or showing them the reason for denial. The email could go to the employee's email address(es) on file.

allow to override sending an email to employee and approver in True Time
We have it set up that approvers receive email notification when a timesheet, TS, has been submitted and employee receives email notification when a TS is denied.
Sometimes Payroll has to deny sheets to make corrections such as a pay code used or deny and resubmit so it catches the time off because employee submitted before the TO pulled in.
In these cases we make all the changes, mostly because by the time we get to them there isn't a lot of time to wait for the employee to fix, resubmit, and have them re-approved. When the email goes out…7 votesThank you for submitting this idea.

Direct Deposit Notification Change Emails Causing Alarm
We have enabled the auto email notification to send to employees when their direct deposit has changed.
However, the system sends an email when you
1. Are setting up a new employee (they had no direct deposit in the system, and now they do since you just got their direct deposit set up)
2. When you change their direct deposit to print instead of "Do not print direct deposit on check run." We commonly change this when the employee is leaving as we cut off their access to employee access.This causes a lot of undue alarm in people. Is…
17 votesAfter researching the two issues detailed in the
Product Idea we have some feedback.We will not be considering #1 for development. Best practices in security are constantly changing and bad actors become more resourceful and creative. This is a valid valid email event to me. If a Bad Actor adds a direct deposit number when there wasn’t supposed to be one, that would be something our users would want to be notified about. Even if it does cause alarm, better to be safe then sorry.
We looked into #2 and are not able to duplicate this issue in any environment. We will need to know the exact steps you took to recreate the event.
Thank you.
