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.

Download application and all the attachments in one combined manner
Currently, when my team onboards someone, they have to pull all records out of FastTrack in order to preserve the application, cover letter, etc. by dragging it into the new hire’s OptiView file. For each
person, I’d estimate this takes about 20 minutes which is very significant when multiplied by the sheer number of hires we have coming through. If we were able to download the application and all the attachments in one combined manner, that would save a huge amount of time over the course of a year. Is there a way that Skyward can facilitate that happening?7 votes -
Post user training guides that are editable.
User guides should be posted to the PDC in a format that allows customization. For example, post the user guides in Word so that generic, multi purpose screenshots may be replaced by the organization's actual screenshots. Allow the customer to edit the user guide to best align with the organization's set-up. Most school districts seem to be creating individual training content for employees because the PDC delivered content is too generic. Thanks.

Add Option to Select Additional Assignments to End when Ending Main Assignment
Allow HR staff the option to end date additional assignments on an employee when they end the main assignment. Currently, staff has to go into each assignment to add an end date. Would be great to be able to select each assignment at once and add an end date to all.

Cash Recipts - please add the Created by field in Reports under WIP
Please add the capability to see who entered a WIP status cash receipt when you click on the reports. We are moving all of our locations from SBAA to Financial management and with no approval process in the cash receipts module, I need to verify the receipts and make budget revisions prior to posting the batch. The report tool is helpful however I have to manually write down which batch I want to select for in the report screen.

Employee Leave Tracking
We need a functionality within the system to track employee leaves (FMLA, child rearing, unpaid, intermittent, etc). This needs to be used as a communication system between multiple departments (the employees supervisor, technology, HR, payroll, etc).

Supplemental Pay / Other Earnings
We need a way for employees or supervisors to submit Other Earnings or Supplemental Pay electronically other than through spread sheet and paper form. This electronic process would need an approval process much like requisitions but should be payable through the payroll processing and not accounts payable. Right now other districts as well as our district have to use paper forms and convert any spreadsheet to CSV files to import into payroll. Very labor intensive for supervisors, administrators, and the payroll department.
