Add Automated Emails to HR/Finance database
We would really like to be able to use Automated Emails in our HR/Finance database like we do with our Student database. For example we would like to send an automated email when new hires are added and be able to filter on their employee type. It is already in place on the Student side. We are hoping it can be added to the HR/Finance side too. It will increase efficiency by automating notifications.

We are having a problem with the Credit Card Vendor Cross Reference and specifically Amazon.
We are having a problem with the Credit Card Vendor Cross Reference and specifically Amazon. Amazon must have changed something because each transaction now has its own version of an Amazon vendor. Last month I had to match-up 40 separate transactions to our Skyward Amazon vendor. My suggestion would be to give users the option to match the first 6 or 8 characters and have the vendor match not have to be an exact match for vendors that they choose.

When creating Employee Letters, it would be great if we could pull in the Add on amount and description fields separately.
This would outline the compensation details for the employee.

Add ability to save parameters in Web reporting
Please add the ability to save parameters in Web Data mining and reporting. Very frustrating to have to continually have to go back and recreate them each time.

Educator Effectiveness - Track history of rating each year
Educator Effectiveness - Track history of rating each year. I would like the history of what an employee was rated on their evaluation each year. It is nice to have the history. For MI, if a teacher is rated Highly Effective for 3 consecutive years, they do not have to be evaluated for a year. We are tracking that on a spreadsheet since Skyward doesn't track the history.

Mass Process - Pay Records
PAC Mass Process - Clone/Add needs the additional option to create the pay records with an hourly rate. Creating just by daily rate does nothing for payment of extra duty assignments which are paid based on the employee normal hourly rate.

Fixed Assets
Fixed Asset Attachments
Our AP person scans invoices in for each check. However, when we go to create Fixed Assets from the invoices, the attachments do not come with. Therefore, we still have to look up individual vendors to print off invoices for our auditors. It would be nice to have the invoice attached to a specific asset and it is double work to scan and attach it to the Fixed Asset if you already do so for the check payments.

Detailed Reports by GLN
In the past, I have always manually reclassed my liablities from GLN 206 to GLN 210 (due to other districts), 212 (due to other govn) and 220 (contracts payable). This year, I thought I would set the system up to book automatically to the correct GLN's. I was able to successfully do so, but then for the life of me, could not get a report to show the detail I booked to each liability account. I was on the phone with support for one full hour to no avail. I now have to manually go back through the list to…

Insurance Tracking premium calculations
Would be helpful to have premium calculations round UP to the nearest cent so we don't have a write-off each year or adjustment due to shortage in collection.

Open Enrollment
Open Enrollment Email Notifications for submissions and approvals
Currently the only email options available in Open Enrollment are for unsubmitted and denials.
Create email notifications to advise the employee when their plans have been successfully submitted. Right now the only indication is the Submit to HR button changes color. We find employees to not see the Status column.
An email should also be generated when their plans have been approved. We get numerous calls from employees asking for their plan status.12 votes -
Shift Differential
Please make it possible to have skyward automatically calculate shift differential for second shift staff. In the timekeeping rule under the shift differential section Hourly Pay option a box to select the pay code to pay needs to be added to allow the shift differential pay code to be added. Similar to how it is in the annualized option. For example staff who start work at 3 pm and work until midnight. Anyone in a certain employee group is paid an additional $.60 per hour for any hours they work between 3:30 pm - 03:00 am. This is for hourly…

Better Security options
Currently we can only restrict users personnel access by building and other building. We have department head that manage several areas and need to be limited to those areas. Currently we need to give them district access which is not acceptable from auditing. The auditors want more controlled access to employees.

Conference Tracking
I would like for there to be a tracker for the conferences our employees attend. We currently do this with a Google Form but it would be beneficial to have this in Skyward under Employee Access. This tracker would have fields for the employee to input what conferences they are attending and details about the conference. It would also have a place for the employee to estimated the cost of the conference. There would need to be an approval process after completing the form.

Remove the link to "Forgot your Login/Password?" link on rwetru09.html (True Time) login page.
Would it be possible to have the ability to remove the link to "Forgot your Login/Password?" link on rwetru09.html (True Time) login page and keep the link on the regular Skyward login page? Since we are using Access Code Only for login to True Time, the forgot login is a bit confusing for some users.

Expense Reimbursement - Verify Available Funds
GOAL:
The Verify Funds options should be made available in the Expense Reimbursement module. Without this function, reimbursement requests can be made without available funds. The enhancement would eliminate the possibility of processing payments without available funds and provide necessary controls in the software. Like any other process related to budget...purchase orders, check requests, etc....this option should be applied to Expense Reimbursements.8 votesThank you for submitting this idea to the Ideas Portal.

If you like this idea, please vote and comment.
In the meantime, if you haven’t tried this already, it could be the solution you’re looking for:
The AP available funds setup in PaC > SA > FM Config > AP will govern Expense Reimbursements. It does so at the AP Processing level, so you won’t necessarily see the verification at the Expense Reimbursement phase. Neither will it verify at the Exp Reimbursement approval phase. Instead, you will noticed an * indicating that the account is over-budget.
The system will, however, check…
