Electronic 941
It would be nice if we could upload electronic 941's. Your website indicates that you have 2,000+ customers so that means that there are over 8,000 paper forms going to the IRS every year. Other software companies are doing this, why not Skyward?
84 votesStarting with the 05.20.02.00.11 & 05.20.06.00.02 addendums both available on 6/25/2020 a new option will be available to populate the IRS Form 941 with data from the 941 Report/Extract. Presently, this is only available for the current (2020) form year.
Thank you!

Please put the view option back on the position tab for assignments!!
As a payroll specialist I was consistently/constantly using the Position View button to check information and to be able to answer questions for employees such as is there an add on to the pay base, what is the hourly rate, were the dates correct that were entered in Employee Management etc. The view tab was removed as it was considered an "enhancement" as it was moving all EM parts to the web but this is terrible for anyone in payroll. Please please please put it back until all of payroll is moved to the Web.
8 votesThank you for submitting this ideas request.
We definitely could have gotten in front of this better that these buttons were going to be taken away and we will make sure next time we decide to take any buttons away for data integrity and efficiency, we will make sure we inform our valued customers way ahead of time.
The reason we committed to this enhancement is because Employee Management is no longer supported in PaC. The system did not handle the new salary calculation method and new scenarios correctly such as additional pay codes and add-ons, which ultimately could have shown inaccurate data for employees.
There are many efficiencies to using the web. Example: currently if you are running payroll or running a report and want to look at assignment information in PaC you would have to back all the way out of what you were doing to go to…

Option for set amount during payroll accounting adjustment
We would like the option to select a set amount during a payroll accounting adjustment instead of percentage only. The system could calculate the percentage in the background and move the associated benefits that way. It would be much quicker. We have tried calculating the percentage, but it never seems to be the correct amount so it takes multiple trial-and-errors to get the correct amount to adjust.

Allow Journal Entries to link to vendor profiles
Create a tab under the vendor profile that will allow journal entries to be linked to specific vendors. This would greatly simplify being able to look at edits that were made after posting and help communication

Bolding out the Totals: Section on a 1099 report
We have over 350 pages on our 1099 report. We need the ability to look at all vendors who spend over $600. It would be convenient and time efficient if the "Totals" for each vendor were bold to jump out at us better. Any chance you can accommodate by the end of the year?

Report transfer
Need a utility/function that allows for the transfer of reports to a new owner. When an employee leaves they have hundreds of reports that need to be transferred to their replacement instead of having to clone each report individually. This transfer should process datamines from all areas (emplyee, budget, vendor, etc.).

Custom Form Date field
I would like the ability to use a date on a custom form without the day of the week showing up. I have to create a form with 26 date fields and the day of the week takes up a lot of real estate and it is not necessary

ACA 1095 Processing
An employee accidently key a social in place of the last name. It run all the way through the process. When the file was sent to the IRS it was rejected with a TPE1024 error, after examining the xml file I determined that when Skyward created the xml file the numbers were deleted from the SSN leaving 2 dashes (--) the IRS flags this as a potential SQL injection attack. This error should have been caught at some point before it was sent to the IRS

Prevent Employees from Requesting More Hours Than Setup
In Employee Access, employees will get an pop-up message warning them that they are requesting more hours than the number of hours per day in their time off setup. However, this is a warning only. Employees can click OK and submit the request anyway. I'd like to see an option for making this an error instead of a warning to prevent employees from submitting such requests.

Add field to Position - Assignment Mass Change Utility in Employee Administration
We have a separate supplement plan in our system. There are many times when our teachers are receiving a supplement/bonus (Best and Brightest - Florida) or a one time pay enhancement supplement that every teacher will have the same account distribution. It would be nice to have an account distribution field in Position-Assignment Mass Change Utility to add the account distribution without having to touch each position control.

gender identity
We are looking to prepare for a changing demographic with Gender Identity. This is currently a field offered in Utah (Utah PR 4112260) but I am located in Pennsylvania. Can we add this for all states so that it is not an issue where we can't use the system to track our employee data? Yes, I can create a custom form but this should be something we can do within the system we have on the demographic side.

TruTime Hourly Calcualtion on Timesheet
Good Morning:
When submitting weekly time sheets, when time off has been approved and added to time sheets and employee's regular hours are also included in the weekly calculation. Please see attached example. There we 24 Paid Off Hours and 16 Worked Hours but the when going in to approved weekly timesheet it totaled 64 hours rather then 40. Employees then need to go into their timesheets and delete the regularly scheduled hours prior to submitting their time sheet. Once time off is approved, shouldn't the TruTime autiomatically recalculated the employee's timesheet to reflect the correct number of hours worked.…1 vote -
Filter on all screens
It would be very helpful if you are on any screen (i.e. - chart of account) where you can right-click and filter out certain information. For example, If I am looking at chart of accounts and filter on salary accounts, but I want to exclude overtime in my view. I would be able to right-click and either exclude every account that has the word "overtime" or exclude the object code for overtime. Instead of download the chart of account to excel and doing this filter through excel.

Accounting Adjustment- Pull all pay instead of strip by strip
We would like to see the accounting adjustment process have an option to pull all pay and change the distribution. We currently have to pull each "wrong" accounting strip one by one and correct it. In the case of an employee paid by multiple projects who is also at multiple centers this can be very time consuming.

Employee Locator - Limit viewing to ORG Chart structure
Employee Locator - Limit viewing to ORG Chart structure
Employee locator is a great feature under employee access. It is currently an OFF/ON feature. We do have it turned ON. However, aides and teachers can currently see Superintendent, Principals, and the personal time off and reasons listed for every employee in Skyward. This is information that we feel everyone should not be able to see. Having viewing access limited based upon the ORG Chart would be a great addition to Employee Locator in Skyward. I recently found out that Skyward employees already have something similar to this hard-coded into your…

Have the ability to pull time sheet reports on former employees without having to reactivate them
We have had several instances where we've had to pull time sheet reports on former employees. There's no way to include those people without having to reactivate them in profile. I'd like to see in the report ranges a way to request active/inactive or both like most other payroll reports.
