Employee Access
Pseudo Approval: I have had employees ask if they would receive a system generated notification informing them as to the determination of their change request. I recommend to all employees to make direct deposit changes in Skyward, but once they are approved or denied they are not notified other than by me telling them. Could this be a process to which the employee would receive a system generated email upon approval or denial of the change request?

Ded/Ben Set Up = Single
Having a deduction and benefit code check type be set up as single. Currently having to manually make this edit each payroll. The current choices for set up are regular, wire, hold and blank. We also tried having the set up check type as blank and set the default check type to single on the vendor profile and the check type turned to H (hold). Just hoping to save a step or if it is accidentally forgotten to manually update.

multiple overlays in sub tracking configuration
In the Substitute Tracking Configuration, Skyward only allows for one default overlay in the account distribution. We have a need to have at least a second option similar to the account distribution overlay in employee managment>additional pay codes. Without this, we have to change every single sub when pulled in from absence management to change the project code since we already the overlay with the object code. This adds another hour each day to processing sub tracking. While I understand that we could have account codes in Absence Management, the number of codes we have are a lot and that…

Provide a way to capture SSI and Medicare exempt wages
When someone has a certain work visa, they are exempt from Social Security and Medicare tax on their wages. It would be nice to have Skyward keep track of these earnings via an exempt pay code. When we run the quarterly 941 this would reduce those wages and not include them in those earnings categories. Right now this has to be done manually which can create a chance for a error(s) when completing the 941.

Allow text messaging option in addition to email for alerts and updates.
Allow text messaging option in addition to email for alerts and updates. For example in Time Off, Fast Track; notification could be received via text to alert that a request has been submitted.
3 votesThank you for submitting this Product Idea. We researched implementing Text Message within our system and determined the scope of development did not align with our Roadmap vision.
We do have Push Notifications for some areas in our Business Suite:
Time Off: Request Awaiting Approval, Request Approved, and Request Denied
True Time: Time Sheet Awaiting Approval, Time Sheet Denied
Finance: Requisitions Awaiting Approval, Check Requests Awaiting Approval, and Credit Card Transaction Awaiting Approval
To enable these Push Notifications please navigate to: Product Setup / System Administration / Push Notification Queue/ Configuration (PS\SA\NQ).
We will evaluate implementing Fast Track pus notification as part of researching this Product Idea.
Thank you!

Please consider an "Auto approval" option for E-commerce POs.
Being that Ecommerce POs go through the approval process, please consider providing an option to "auto approve" these orders so that someone isn't relied on to "push" them thru to the vendor manually. Thank you

Mass assign work schedules - ask for confirmation prior to update
When mass assigning work schedules in TT, when viewing the report after hitting run, ask the question "Are you sure you want to commit to changes?" This is asked all over the place when making changes in employee management.
3 votesThank you for submitting this idea. We'd like to see more support for this idea from the Skyward User Community prior to considering it for development.
This idea will remain open for continued voting and commenting.
In the meantime, we suggest clicking "Report" to preview the mass assignment changes in the report first, and then clicking "Run" to commit changes. There will be a pop-up once you hit "Run" that says "Are you sure you want to Mass Assign the following work schedule for MM/DD/YYYY to MM/DD/YYYY to the selected employees?"
Thank you!

Have TT recognize non scheduled days from empoyee Manangement calendar
Please have TT look at the employees Employee Management calendar for all of the days...paid holiday (as it does now) AND non scheduled days. It is double the work to build individual calendars in EM and edit schedules for non-scheduled work days.
2 votesThank you for submitting this Product Idea.
We suggest submitting a Service Call so one of our Customer Success Representatives can assist you with setup. Our system should already be able to read paid holidays and non-scheduled days (or non-work days) from the same calendar.

Add an eCommerce "flag" when approving requisitions.
Add a column to flag eCommerce requisitions in the approval process just like there's an option when initially adding a requisition? I've attached screen shots.
6 votesThank you for submitting this idea and the accompanying screenshots!
Are you expecting an eCommerce column on the main browse or on all the approval browses, including the awaiting lower level and awaiting high level browses?

Limit TO by code and employee type
Our teacher’s group has contractual cap for personal days. No more than 3% from this group can use a personal leave on any given day. Right now I need to pull a time tracker report and manually crosscheck the number of requests. It is very time consuming and it would be helpful to have the system prevent entering requests when the limit is reached.

Please add to the configuration to either select to allow or prohibit mass approve for True Time sheets
We would like to be able to have an opportunity to turn off the mass approve True Time hours.
Our supervisors are not reviewing them when using that option. If there are notes attached it will put a hard stop to those particular timesheets but we really need it for a district setting. When we did our Empowerment training with Marc Johnson he could see how this would be very beneficial to districts.17 votes -
We would like to prohibit employees from submitting timesheets before all hours are accounted for based on the scheduled hours.
Employees are submitting timesheets either before all time off hours are imported or are forgetting to input time off or enter it correctly for various reasons; they may leave in an emergency situation, they don't account for lunch times, etc. They then submit their time sheet short of what their scheduled weekly hours should be. It would be great to prohibit employees from submitting until all hours are accounted for. It would allow it to be corrected much much sooner than when it has reached the payroll department and very close to when the payroll needs to be processed and…
11 votesHello!
We have a few options that you can try to resolve some of these scenarios you have listed.
We cannot prohibit employees from submitting timesheets before all hours are accounted for, but you can set a requirement for the employee to select a reason why their timesheet is short on hours when the timesheet is at least X less than their weekly schedule time.
For your approvers, there is a setting where you can display timesheets in a different color when they are under a certain # of hours of their schedule.
If your employees have an annualized rule, you could have a time off record created for any hours you are short.
Thank you,

Add submit button to invoice entry screen
Add "submit for approval" button to the invoice entry screen or "Save for later", similar to the credit card screen. Also, being able to submit for approval by batch would be helpful if the supervisor then received only one email notification.

Add a Time Off Request & Skycoder
Allow HR Custom Forms to be Skycoded onto Time Off Requests. Currently only "STUDENT CUSTOM FORMS" can be Skycoded onto an HR Employee Access - Time Off request. I was told "this is how it is programmed and to submit a Product Idea" to which I replied "this seems more like a programming error -- why would a STUDENT CUSTOM FORM be placed on an HR screen"? Thank you
0 votesWe'd like to understand this request better. What are you trying to accomplish with adding an HR Custom Form to Time Off Requests via Skycoder?
An HR Customer Form is typically used to add extra fields for an Employee and we'd understand the usefulness on the Employee Edit Screens.
By adding extra fields to the time off request are you expecting to edit the same information for that employee for every time off request? Is it informational only?
More details for how you'd expect this to work and what you're expecting to happen will help us understand this request.
Thank you!

TRS RP25 records clone button
TRS REP25 Records Clone Button
When I need to make the same correction for several months it would be nice to have a clone button so all the information does not have to be manually entered. It would be nice just to change the reporting month to submit the record.0 votesThank you for submitting this idea. We've passed it on to our Texas State Reporting & Compliance department to review.

Expand Attachments function to show more than 20 records
Please do this ASAP!! We are trying to go paperless and are scanning old documents into the Attachments area of the Employee Profile but you are only allowed to view 20 records at a time. This way, if there are more than 20 documents, if you try to sort by title or date, only page 1 sorts and the items on page 2 don't sort with it so you would have to go in and sort page by page to find things. Almost every other field in Skyward allows you to expand what shows on a page up to 2000…
