True Time
I have input a Skyward ticket to see if setting the order of pay codes in the employee's True Time clock view was possible and was told there was not a way to do this and to submit as an idea.
I want to be able to have pay codes listed in a specific order within the True Time time clock view. For some employees with multiple codes, it would decrease errors if we could list the codes in a way that makes sense. I am not a big believer in multiple codes, it increases the risk of error and…

Requesting Time Off for a Specific Fiscal Year/From that Specific Year's Allocations
We would like to suggest that Time Off can be requested for a specified fiscal year. Example: current school year is 2022-2023 and the employee has a scheduled trip during the 2023-2024 (following) school year. We would like the employee to have the option to select the calendar year to submit their request from 'that fiscal year's time off allocations' (not the current year's allocations).

Add "Select All" option when deactivating an employee
When deactivating an employee, I'd like to see a "Select All" option on the screen where you have to select each record you want to deactivate. Now you have to click on each thing (Contracts, Pay Records, Time off set up, Employee Access, Security, Vendor Master, Org Charts). It could mean saving up to 7 clicks when deactivating a person if you had one "Select All" button that would place a check in each field and then deactivate.
Menu Path HR\PR\PE\PEWhat the screen currently says...
"Employee has been made inactive.
Please select all other records that should be made…11 votes -
Time Off Options
Since I have to do the calculation manually I take the number of days worked divided by the total days available to work that month and multiply the number of leave hours to be awarded for sick leave.
IE 10 days worked/23 days available to be worked that month = .4347826086956522 / 11 sick hours leave available for accrual for an 8 hr employee = 4.78 or rounded to 4.75 Sick Leave Hours for that month.• I know that is a complex calculation as we have paras that only work 7.5 hrs and only earn 10 Sick Leave Hours.

Can you help me understand this idea better?
How often are you doing these manual calculations? Is there periods during the school year that you need to run these calculations more often than others?
Could you explain what would you expect the system to do differently to help with your calculations?

Add Position Control information to data mining fields
Because Position Control information could differ from the Assignment information, we would like to be able to add Position Control fields to either data mining, or run some type of other reporting option, to be able to review and compare the data fields between Position Control and Assignment.
We would need to be able to run this report for both Employee Management and for Salary Negotiations, including vacancies.
Thank you!
2 votesThank you for submitting this Product Idea.
Can you help me understand this idea better?
Which specific fields from Position Control would you expect to pull in Data Mining?
Are there differences in the fields you would expect depending on whether you come from Employee Management or from Salary Negotiations?

add a mass add of pay codes in Web
If there cannot be a way to add a processing list to PAC to add pay codes based on a processing list please add a mass add/delete/edit option to Web.
This is so important at the end of the year when we have 100+ people that we pay severance pay to. We could run a processing report based on term date and then give those people a severance pay code. We could then go to mass edit pay codes and change the amount for each of those people.6 votesThank you for submitting this idea.
We’d like to better understand this request. Can you tell us more about how the current selection parameters on the mass change utility is not meeting your needs in PaC?
Related question/ try this instead: Are you using Employee Management at your district? If so, you can run the Additional Pay Code Mass Add Utility to add the severance code to the Employee Assignments using a Processing List. Then, when you run the Assignment Export /Payroll Import, the Employee Pay Records will be updated.
Thank you,

Receiving Option to Mark Completely Received
Currently, the only reportable way for AP staff to know that an order is completely received is for them to go through each order and check for all items received, then they can manually mark it as completely received.
In order for staff in AP to know when an order has been completely received, there should be a checkbox for the person checking in the order (that may have been received over multiple days/weeks) to check when the last item has been received and the PO is completely received.
2 votesThank you for entering this product idea.
We are assuming you have separate employees doing the PO and receiving entry versus the invoice entry? If this is true, then the invoice entry staff do not know when the PO/receiving staff have fully received the items?
Our suggestion is that whoever is entering in the receiving records should go out to the PO and change it to fully received when they have received all the items. Then when the AP employee adds the invoice in using that PO it comes in as fully received and the AP employee does not have to look at any of the receiving records.
thank you!

Truetime Supervisor Employee ID
It would be beneficial to have the Supervisors employee ID as a mine-able field in Skyward because some systems outside of Skyward require supervisor ID rather than just the name in Truetime. I have to manually parse that information in an excel spreadsheet for 1400 employees then upload it into our systems.
5 votesThank you for submitting this Product Idea. We have reviewed it and would like to see more support and use cases submitted from the Skyward user community prior to considering it for development.
There is one thing to consider: If EmployeeID is added to Data Mining, it would become available in Employee Access Data Mining. For Organizational Charts employees could potential access EmployeeID where previously it was not available.

TImesheet Approvals
It would be helpful for timesheet approvers to be able to mass approve timesheets even if they are over or under the scheduled hours. It is time consuming to have to look at each time sheet if required to approve it.
1 voteThank you for submitting this idea.
It would be helpful for us to know what Timekeeping Rules you currently have set up at your district. There may be some adjustments you can make that would no longer require approvers to review each one that is over or under scheduled hours.
We suggest reviewing the options highlighted in the attached screenshot. If these options are set at your district it will prevent mass approval of timesheets.

True Time Exception Report
On the True Time Exception Report it would be helpful to have an option for employees who are not clocking in/out for lunch. We have quite a few number of employees who are doing this and we need to correct the issue with them.

Have you tried creating a Data Mining Report where the Total Hours worked are greater than a certain amount, but the lunch hour duration is less than a certain amount?
It could looks something like the attached example.

Under SBAA it would be nice to be able to print a group of check detail reports individually
Currently I can print a report under check request report. But it prints all of the checks in the range on one sheet. It would be SO HELPFUL if it gave us the option to print each check report separately rather than as a group

TRS ED45 able to enter Multiple records in the same month
TRS TX ED45 able to enter Multiple records in the same reporting month. For example is for subs that the ED45 records is created for each month. If an error is made and I need to delete multiple months I have to do an ED45 record for each month. Skyward only allows one ED45 record per month. I have to submit the record in the TRS portal. Then go into the ED45 change the information to the next month submit the record.
1 voteThank you for submitting this idea. How often do you find you need to make multiple adjustments in a single month?
It has been passed on to our State and Federal Compliance Department to review.
This idea will remain open for the Skyward Community and other TX districts to show their support.

Requisition/Purchase Order comparison
We need a report to compare the prior year's purchase order totals by group to the current year's requisition totals by by group. For example, you can see that 1st grade spent $1,200 this year and then you can see that they have requisitioned $1,300 for next year. This would greatly help to be able to compare the information for reasonableness from year to year. It would be ideal for the information to be available to the approvers in the requisition approval screen. Attached are excel versions of a report that I created
1 voteThank you for submitting this idea and the example files.
Have you tried using the requisition/PO listing report? This report can sequence by group and run by Fiscal Year to review comparisons.
Thank you.

Utility to mass assign approvers to PO groups
A utility to mass assign approvers would be awesome. There is currently a utility to mass reassign approval groups to another person but no utility to mass add a new approver to a selection list of groups. Need the option to select the level and then set that same level of approval to all groups selected in a list.

Adding a Room field within Skyward Business
I think it would be great to have a room number field within Skyward Business. Our IAM system syncs with Skyward and it would be great to pull the room number from one central source and push out all of this to our other downstream systems.
1 voteHave you tried creating a Custom Form with a new Field for Room Number? You could use Skycoder from Human Resources to attach the Custom Form to Screens and collect the Room Number.
