Check Stub Printing
We would like to have the check stub for our checks print in 2 parts instead of having to print the check and then print a separate voucher (and in the case of SBAA they have to photo copy the checks because there isn't a voucher option). We purchased our checks from the Skyward recommended vendor Nelco and the checks come with a perforation in the stub to be able to print that way. We are wasting money and time by having to print vouchers and make photocopies. I'm surprised more districts haven't complained about this. This is an enhancement…
4 votesThank you for submitting this idea. Nelco is the authorized partner of compatible paper forms for the Skyward software. All W-2 and 1099 forms, checks, and school forms are guaranteed 100% compatible. Any issues with the check layout will need to be handled by Nelco as Skyward is unable to alter the format in anyway.

Combine checks for individual vendors
It would be great if checks to the same vendor could be combined like they can on the Financial Management side. It is the same concept of having several purchase orders and sending one check to the vendor. The negative impact is that we are wasting paper checks by not combining.
One check to each vendor from several purchase orders75 votesWe hear and understand the value of this request. We appreciate everyone voting and commenting on this request. We did not take this request lightly; we’ve reviewed it and conducted a thorough analysis of the project with our development team. Currently, it’s not something on the roadmap for development.

Coupons with On-line Ordering
When using the on-line ordering especially for Quill they have coupon codes you have to enter to get money off depending on how much you order. One of the secretaries that was ordering didn't find a way to add the code. She called Quill and she said we had to check with Skyward. She put in a call to Skyward and they told her we needed to ask for the enhancement. Is it possible that we can get this added?

Clone Substitute as part of Time Off Trans Clone
It would be great to have the option of cloning the Substitute as part of the Time Off transaction clone process. I most often use the clone process for FMLA or long-term situations and many times the substitute is the same for the whole period. As it is right now I can clone the time off but then have to edit each transaction any way to update the sub field. Although it would add a step it would be great if a preview screen would pop up showing the dates time off type reason and sub for the days you…

Attaching a paycode to a time off entry
We have employee's that work 2 positions in the District. They submit their time off to individual supervisors per the job the system automatically applies the Time Off to their primary pay code. We would like to be able to assign another pay code to a time off entry. Example Paraworks 6 hours a day Kids Safari: works 2 hour a day Employee submits a time off request for 6 hours to their para supervisor Employee submits a time off request for 2 hours to their kid safari supervisor Currently the system says all of the time of is the…

Column heading updated to Status of Insurance Request
Online open enrollment has 1 important column without a header. It is currently listed as S. It should be spelled out like all the other header columns. Status of Insurance Request. This would eliminate an abundance of phone calls asking what the status is on their enrollment. Yes it common sense to check that column but apparently not to none benefit people.

Select Phone Category Field in Employee Access
Enable employees to maintain their phone numbers and select Phone Category and Type. This information would then populate the information on the Phone/Email tab. District could have a Notification Phone Category so that users could select to use for school closing. Data could then be exported and uploaded to 3rd party software. Districts are currently requesting the information it is not updated in Skyward only in the 3rd party software. Would allow single entry of data. Employees can keep their phone numbers updated for notification when necessary. Districts could have an open period to allow employees to update their numbers…

Web Cash Receipt Account Button
In PaC the functionality to click on the Account button takes the user to the Chart of Accounts module so that a user can look up descriptions see history open PO's which helps in cross referencing if the correct code is being used or copy the same description that was utilized before. The web version has three different places to look up the account number but it does not allow the user to go to the chart of accounts or account profile. Why not?

Employees need to identify type of phone and email
Employees need to be able to identify which type of phone and email each one is. Currently they can’t identify any phone number and only emails 2-4 can be identified via employee access. On the HR side I can however identify phone 2 and 3 but not one. Our request would be that via employee access they can identify all phone numbers and email addresses. If not they should be specified by the system. Our request would be that via employee access employees can identify all phone numbers and email addresses.

AR Statement Pymts Listing
When printing and emailing AR statements it would be nice if the "Payments" section would be listed differently. Payors do not understand how they are listed now.
If the payments could be listed chronologically by full payment only like in tab "4 Payment" in Payor Master it would be much more readable and cut down on a lot of phone calls.51 votesThank you for submitting and voting on this idea. We’ve spent some time researching this idea. We have concluded that that we will not be pursuing this enhancement at this time.
We recommend using the “Number of Days Back” option in SBAA for Accounting control.

ER 27 for Retirees based on calendar month not pay period
System is creating an ER27 adjusting the days and hours worked based on sub tracking (which is pay period) when retirees have to be reported by calendar month. We are submitting ER20's every month with the correct hours and days for the calendar month and the next month an ER 27 is adjusting it and it shouldn't be. We are deleting the ER27 prior to submitting them.

Approving credit card transactions
Due to so many credit card transactions under Review/Submit Transactions could you please add the select all transactions to approve? Last month I had 150 transactions to approve one by one. This takes a lot of time. I understand that the last approver has this option however it seems appropriate for other users as well. This will save so much time if I do not have to click submit 180 times.
5 votesGood Evening!
The functionality to select all Credit Card transactions to approve already exists! You can start selecting all credit card transactions to approve today!
Thank you and have a great day!

Garnishment calculation
US Department of Education calculates disposable earnings as Gross less taxes less health insurance less WRS pension. Also has a base minimum poverty earnings that excludes the deduction is earnings are too low. Skyward only has the standard disposable calculation of Gross less taxes. Negative impact: Federal Law failure to comply with correct calculation. Add another disposable calculation option that follow the US Dept of Education calculation that also includes the option of minimum earnings by employee.

Add Individual Employee Pull to True Time
We would like to be able to pull in an individual to pay for any True Time timekeeping rule. In the State of MN if an employee demands their final check we have to produce in 24 hours. We would like to use the system to calculate all money owed using what is entered in True Time. I have been told that the only way to do this is to manually create a check for the hours owed cut the check and then force the time sheets into history so that you do not pay them again for those hours…

Shift Differential vs automatic OT pay code
I would like to submit a request for enhancement for Shift Differential in the Time Keeping Rules where you could select a shift differential pay code rather than it only allowing an automatic OT pay code. We have custodial staff who work evenings and anyone who works hours after 330pm receives a shift differential pay of $.60 per hour. For the last seven years I have manually calculated their shift differential by running a data mining report printing it and then counting their hours that they have worked after 330 pm. This is cumbersome and leaves room for human error.…

Positive Pay for SBAA
Avoid Check Fraud Positive pay would be most helpful in preventing check fraud. Fraudsters are targeting school districts. Our distract has prevented check fraud on the Accounts Payable side but we have no way of preventing on the SBAA side.
