Allow Req Changes for Emails 1 2 3 and 4
Allow users to enter personal email address for emails 2 3 and 4 for notifications. Information could then be exported/imported to a third party software. Employees are entering and maintaining their information in one system Skyward. Office staff is not manually updating the information in Skyward and then exporting to 3rd party. Saves District staff time in maintaining this information. Add Email 1 2 3 and 4 with the ability to select if employee can change using auto-approve approval needed read only or hide - just like Phone 1 2 and 3 fields.

Absence Count for Substitute Tracking
In our Substitute Handbook we give a substitute a $10.00 bump up in pay after they sub (in any capacity) 30 days. Substitutes will receive an increase of $10 to their daily rate ($5 for half day rate) after completing 30 substitute assignments in the school year. (Long term assignments are not eligible for this rate increase.) Skyward can track per sub type ie teacher sub para sub secretary sub etc. Our language states any day subbed counts in the 30 day count. This causes us to dump the Sub days from Aesop into an Excel spreadsheet and then calculate…

Ability to close each month in SBAA
In Indiana we need to be able to close each month after balancing in SBAA. Our SBOA auditors were recently here and that is something that they required us to do as part of our internal controls. Without being able to close a month the corporation office (and each SBAA school) is unable to verify that they are indeed balancing their bank statements each month.
By adding the ability to close each month in SBAA corporate office and each principal could verify that the bank balancing had been done. Internal controls is a huge part of the SBOA audit.60 votesThank you for submitting and voting on this idea. We’ve reviewed this request and at this time we are not considering it for development.
We suggest using the Max Days to backdate as a way to limit what might get posted to a month.

Clone as Vacancy
Skyward gives you the option to clone an assignment to a different employee but it would also be helpful to have the option to clone the assignment as a vacant assignment. Right now there is only an option to add vacant assignment so you have to manually enter all of the information from the employee leaving to the vacancy.

Data Mining True Time
In data mining when pulling True Time info it would be helpful to have the information on if the time is unsubmitted submitted approved. Supervisors are able to access their employees’ timesheets based on if they are Unsubmitted Unapproved or History so there must be an indicator already in place with the current status of the time. Currently we have a certain group of employees who when they use a specific pay code need to add a note with an explanation. We run a report to see the dates and notes but we can’t tell if the time has been…

Need Ability to Add More Than 30 Detail Lines
Users cannot add more than 30 detail lines in Detail Line Entry. They have to create 2 RQ's when spreading expenses across 35 schools using the same Invoice number with the suffix of a and b. Users should be able to click and Add More button and add an unlimited number of detail lines (or at lease well over 30).

Human Resources Data Mining - And-Or Filter
We would like to have the same data mining options that can be found in Skyward Student. HR is missing the And/Or Filter . This would give us a another level to filter down the information.

Request the ability to Reset an Online Assignment
Currently a teacher can allow a student to Resume an On-line Assignment to finish an assignment they started. However if the teacher would like them to retake the assignment Resume leaves all the previous answers in place so the student just needs to correct the wrong answers rather than answer all the questions again. In order to allow the student to truly retake the on-line assignment it has to be cloned and then set to excused for all other students. This clutters the gradebook over the term of the course. We would like to see a Reset button added in…

WE HAVE CHOICES TO CREATE DIFFERENT REPORTS BUT EACH TIME WE PRINT A REPORT IT HAS THE SAME TITLE AND IT CAN GET CONFUSING ON WHICH REPORT YOU PRINTED. EXPECTED OUTCOME IS TO HAVE THE DESCRIPTION OF THE REPORT (WE DO CREATE IT WHEN WE CREATE THE REPORT) ON THE HEADER OF THE REPORT.

Employee Profile Master
I would like there to be an option to only show active employees on PaC in the Search tab in the Employee Profile Master screen. It takes me a long time to get to my employees when I have to search and filter through the non active employees. I think you could create a button that shows active non active and both.

Timekeeping Rule-Tracking hours only
Right now as it stands for timekeeping rules that are set up to track hours only there is no way to get the time sheet back to edit after it's been approved by the supervisor. For example a coach has clocked in out for most of the week. The AD approves the time sheet. The coach then says they forgot to clock in out on Friday. Since the time keeping rule is set up to track hours only there is not a way to get those hours added in. I'd like to see a way to be able to get…

We need to have a check box to identify Tier 2 plan in TRS just like there is one for IMRF. We also need a an additional box to put in the wage limit because it changes every year. Currently we have 3 TRS employees that are tier2 over the wage limit and it caused problems in reporting.

Invoice adjustment field considered in avail funds
When entering a budget transfer the available funds doesn't reflect any adjustments being made on invoices that may be in a batch status. Say for instance an account has a balance of $1600 and there is a PO entered for $1500 leaving a balance of $100. Then an invoice comes in on that PO for $1510 then really all that is available is $90. However what is reflected in the available funds in budget transfer is $100. If that budget transfer gets done for full $100 then when that invoice that's in batch gets updated now the account is over…

retirement hours not populating
When running a retirement report in data mining the 1/1/-6/30 hours are not populating. The monies come in and the year to date hours and monies come in but not the other hours needed. This causes us to have to run 2 reports for the end of the year retirement reporting to be able to get those hours.

Cash Receipt Screen
I would like to be able to see the total of my cash receipts on the main cash receipt screen. Right now there is Batch Description Created Fiscal Year Rev Source Status etc. Unless I click into each batch I cannot see the total amount If there could be a column between the description column and the Created column with a total that would be extremely helpful for our district.

Credit Card vendor match
Yesterday when doing the vendor match a few of the vendors looked very familiar but they weren't available when I looked further the vendors were inactive. Could inactive vendors at least show up to let you know that they are in the system? If I wouldn't have been here so long those names wouldn't have been familiar and may have added a new vendor.

Option to perform rollback prior to incrementing
Rollback/move of balance overage is based on the years of service at the time of rollback/move. As currently configured employee is allowed to roll/move balances based on a higher experience value because years are incremented for an anniversary which may not occur for 8 months after the year-end process is performed. Employee rollback and move rules should be checked prior to incrementing years of service.
