Utility to delete Positions that do not have an Assignment.
It would be helpful to have a utility that deletes Positions that do not have any assignments in plan years. We are running into an issue with Position Control where HR is rolling Assignments in chunks. They load each group. Skyward still creates the Position for all of the other groups, just without an assignment. It does it every time they roll, so there are thousands of empty Positions without an Assignment in Position Control. Right now, I have to delete each one individually. A utility would save me hours of time that I spend manually deleting the Positions that…

Create a widget for supervisors to see who has not submitted their timesheets.
It would be nice to have a dashboard widget for supervisors to see which of their employees under them in the org chart has not submitted their timesheet. Currently they would have to take several steps to see who hasn't submitted but there are supervisors that don't want to get into the weeds and take those extra steps. At this this time it takes me (payroll) telling them who has not submitted.

Org Chart Lock/Unlock Button
The new unlock/lock button in the org chart is causing issues. We NEED multiple people to be able to edit at once. We have a person who hires certified and a person who hires support and we don't have the luxury of waiting for one or the other to be done editing so the other can get in there and do their work. Our payroll department often updates org chart set ups as people change positions as well, simultaneously. Also, didn't realize this but if one person locks it down and leaves for the day, everyone else is stuck until…

Preapprove employee travel
Would like travel to be preapproved by the supervisor then be sent back to the employee so they can then submit expenses for reimbursements. This allows the supervisor to know the total cost of the travel so they know that before allowing the travel. Currently, once it is pre-approved, it goes directly to the supervisor, then is an invoice after they approve it.

Mass add placement tracker for add-ons
Would love a utility to mass-add (or update) add-on placement trackers (example: Mid-year matrix update when longevity is an add-on)

Add Dedicated Field/Button for Staff TEA ID Number
Please add a dedicated field or button within Staff/Teacher profiles to enter and store the TEA ID number. This information is required for certification verification, TEAL access, reporting, and state compliance for Texas school districts. Having a searchable and reportable TEA ID field would improve accuracy, reduce duplicate tracking, and streamline HR and certification processes.

Allow deleting references
It would be helpful for applicants to have the ability to delete references. Some times applicants will use family as references and we do not accept family references. But there is no way to remove the reference and replace them with a different reference. Also, we would like to be able to add custom instructions for what we are looking for specifically on references. Such as a sentence to let the applicant know that we do not accept family as a reference.

Resetting Password on Mobile App
Due to our Google school email security settings, it is easier for our employees to have a password set up for their access to the Mobile App for time tracking, time off, and viewing their paystubs. I wish that you would be able to reset your password on the mobile app as our users struggle with changing that on the computer (as they can use Google Login there).

Liquidation/Receiving Status When Entering an Invoice
Why does Purchasing > Receiving information NOT communicate with Accounts Payable when entering an invoice on a PO that has already been received? Seems to make receiving the PO pointless. Maybe we don't have everything set up correctly, but wouldn't you want to know if a product has been received when enter the invoice to pay?

Eligible for Comp Time Warning When Actually NOT Eligible...
When our classified employees goes to submit their timesheet and they have over 40 hours (regardless if that 40 had any leave or holiday hours on it) it says they are eligible for compensation time. We do not award comp time when there is leave/holiday hours as a factor. It would be great (perhaps undoable) if the system would not have that warning appear unless they truly are eligible.

changing "print" to "run"
When we are in budgetary data mining and pulling reports, the button says "print" rather than "run." Can you change this to say "run" instead? Print to everyone, especially less frequent users like secretaries, means sending it to a printer, not running a report. This would be very helpful and self-explanatory for users to make the wording match what is actually happening.

True Time Notification
Is there a way to do a prompt on Mondays on True Time to remind classified staff to submit their timesheets from the previous week? It would be very helpful to create a pop up notification once they have put in their access code that they have to acknowledge before they can clock in for the day! It would personally save me a lot of time tracking people down and waiting multiple days for all the timesheets to be submitted.

Ed FI - send data for “individual students” and/or for a “processing list” of students
In the old XML days, we had the ability to extract data for “individual students” and for a “processing list” of students. Clearly you all had previously recognized the need for us to have this option.
In our current Ed Fi world, we do not have these options. We can limit the sending of data based on "entity" or based on certain Ed Fi tables. But as we get closer to the end of a submission or collection, it is SO MUCH MORE EFFICIENT and allows us MORE CONTROL or PRECISION, if we can only send the data we want…

Add Totals Button on Web for Filtered Data
In PAC in the Invoice entry screen, (FM\AP\IN\IM) there is a very handy green question mark under the Report button that, when ranges are set to a particular vendor in a particular range, you can find the Total Count of what is displayed on the screen. Currently on the web side you need to run a report, or dump to excel to get a total. Adding a screen total as in PAC would be very beneficial and a time and resource saver!

At Risk Indicators - State of Kansas
New this year to Kansas in the At Risk tab is to check mark each indicator student qualifies for. We have students who may have several indicators that can be marked. Once a mass add is done to add for one indicator, any additional indicators have to be added manually. When we have 3/4 of our district marked ELL and almost have also marked for Dyslexia it is a lot of work to have to add either one manually. To have an option to UPDATE the At Risk tab instead of just overwriting.

Time off Tracker
The time off tracker report is nearly perfect, but it could benefit from an additional column. In the Additional Codes and Settings section, the Time Off Codes and Reasons are listed, but including the Description/Comment section would be very helpful when reviewing time off requests. This section would capture comments from the staff, saving time during the review process.
For example, when a staff member takes a day off on a restricted date and the comment says "Principal approved," we know we don't need to contact the school to verify the restricted day. Currently, we have to check each individual…1 voteThank you for the product idea! When referring to comments, you are looking at the description column and users are putting in the comments to the time off description correct? Or are you also referring to approval notes?
Thank you!

Individual Password Reset Options
I would like to propose an additional configuration that would allow a district to disable the password reset option by individual user. Currently, the only configuration option to control the ability to reset your own password applies to entire groups of users: Employee/Secured, Guardian, and then Students. Having the ability to add another layer of protection to the database would further reduce risk of compromised accounts. One specific use case: disabling the ability for the Payroll Manager to reset their own password. Instead they could have an established process for requesting a password reset if needed (which would be unknown…
