Add additional colums to the view.
In using the Status Code view when looking at applications, the system will only allow you to view 10 columns. In addition, it will only allow you to dump into Excel 10 columns. Several of our applications have as many as 16 status codes assigned. We need either to see it in the view or at least be able to dump it to see the overall picture of the workflow processes on a grand scale.

Data Mining - Report Templates Sharing Repository
While participating in the Skyward User Group online training webinars last week, I was made aware that we can "Import" custom created report(s) templated into our own Skyward install. This allows sharing with other districts. There are many creative and strong SW users creating many beneficial custom reports. I think it would be a great idea to have an online "file repository" to allow sharing of report templates with all SW users from all districts if they are willing to share.
The repository could be setup to separate states and avoid issues with different state laws, etc. and perhaps by…

Add the amount for 4c amount in the W4 information tab
In addition to ordering the steps 1-4b like someone else requested add the amount that is calculated for 4c to add the federal deduction amount right there. It makes sense to do all of that on the one screen since we may be adding other values there as well.

HR, Utilities, Mass Add Transactions
It would be extremely helpful to be able to Mass Add Transactions by a date range not just one day at a time for groups of employees. If you would please add this it would save us a lot of time entering time off allocations and used time off.

Use Skycoder on the screen:
$(‘#AllowSpecial’).val(‘true’);
Once this is added to the code this should allow for Greek Characters in the ID Field.

Would it be possible to have a Purchase Order filter option based on "Received" purchase orders?
Would it be possible to create a Purchase Order viewing filter based on "Received" Purchase Orders? Otherwise a lot of time is wasted going through each and every open P.O. to see if it has been "Received" in Skyward. Thanks!

TrueTime Future Dates
When you use TrueTime future dates (ie need to submit timesheets before the week is complete) there is an error that comes up. It will allow employees to put in a complete day, but it will not let them edit it the day of. For example I opened up 11/19/20 and 11/20/2020 so they could submit their timesheet and I would be able to prepare the payroll early due to Thanksgiving.
An employee entered the "complete day" but needed to make changes to 11/19, because it was the current day it gave them a warning that "The record can not…1 vote -
Add a date range selection to the Credit Card Transaction Board Report
The format of the Credit Card Transaction Board Report is a much cleaner report to give to our Board, but I am not able to pull the report for just the transactions that need approval at the monthly board meeting. There needs to be a date range selection, import date range selection, or batch number selection.

Add lockout warning to log in page
Add a warning to the login page so employees know they will be locked out after 3 failed attempts. I get multiple requests to unlock accounts each day, because people don't know they will be locked out. They just keep trying over and over again. It would be nice if they were instructed to click the Forgot Password link.

Rolling Monthly Report
The current "Ranges" option under the field parameters in data mining only allows the ability to give the total of the monthly range and display in one column. It would he helpful to expand this option so we can select a month range, but have the report give us individual monthly totals in separate columns. This would be different than the auto-generate since that is limited by the fiscal year. This enhancement would allow us to easily create a rolling monthly history report without having to add multiple fields because we could now define the monthly range for the report.

Data Mining Reports to Print Balances for More Than a 12 Month Span
Currently all data mining reports allow you to ask it to print an unencumbered or unencumbered remaining balance. However, the remaining balance is only for the final year that you are asking the report to print for. So if you have a fund (which most of us do have funds that run more than 12 months) that runs July 1, 2018 and ends December 2019 (or later), your available balance will never be correct since your fund runs beyond the 12 month period. It will give you the available balance based upon January 2019 through December 2019 but won't include…

List detailed instructions on how to use the Texas Department of Public Safety fields
Skyward has the platform under Texas State Reporting to manage the Texas Department of Public Safety. The only thing is, I can not find instructions on how to use this platform.
1 voteThank you for submitting this idea.
I’ve attached the DPS Processing Manual recently created by our State and Federal Reporting Department to this response. It will be published in SkyDoc by the end of the week.
In the future, this type of request should be submitted via a Service Call.

Calculate retirement hours based on number of checks remaining
Currently an employee who joins us after the first payroll period applicable to their position the retirement hours on their pay code are populated based on the 20 or 24 checks. ie: employee works 90 days at 6 hpd=540 total hrs. The retirement hours on the pay code populates as 27 (divided by 20 checks) versus 54 based on 10 checks left.
I find that since the information we used to use to see the number of days on the position tab in PAC was removed (grrrr) we now have to go to WEB open that employee, choose assignment and…10 votesThank you for submitting this idea to the Ideas Portal.

Create way to clone a fund in order to create a new fund.
In order to create a new fund in the system you have to manually add the fund and all the accounts (Equity/Liability/Rev/Exp/Cash) to the new fund. You also have to bounce back and forth between Web and PAC. It would be nice to have a clone option for a fund available that way you choose a fund option that's already created, and clone it in order to create the new fund. All accounts will already be there and you just need to rename/number the accounts.
5 votesThere is a process in Skyward to clone funds in order to create a new fund.
On the Web, navigate to Account Management, Product Set Up, Utilities and select “Mass Add Account Transaction” Once you’ve run through that utility and reviewed the data you process it using the “Mass Add Accounts” utility.
Here are links to the SkyDoc:
NOTE: We recommend submitting a Service Call to get assistance with running these utilities.

See adjusted duration on time-off request
Sometimes an employee may submit their time off request but it's for the wrong duration. Example, a Para submitted 3 hours of sick time off for a dr. appointment but came back earlier than expected. The time off was already fully approved so I adjusted the duration on their profile. When the employee goes into Employee Access, they can see the adjusted duration when they select Time Off and then "My Status". However, if they go into Time Off and then "My Requests", it will show the originally submitted duration. Can we make both sections of Time off reflect the…

Vendor Req, PO's, Inv, Checks button screen selection
