Pop Up Message for True Time
It would be great if you could create a pop up message option for True Time Quick Entry. A lot of our employees do not open the Employee Access screen often and this would be a great way to get needed messages to them.
14 votesThank you for submitting this idea.
The pop up message option for True Time Quick Entry would be for a district to customize a message? Do you have an example of how you would use this pop up message?
Thank you!

List detailed instructions on how to use the Texas Department of Public Safety fields
Skyward has the platform under Texas State Reporting to manage the Texas Department of Public Safety. The only thing is, I can not find instructions on how to use this platform.

I’ve attached the DPS Processing Manual recently created by our State and Federal Reporting Department to this response. It will be published in SkyDoc by the end of the week.
In the future, this type of request should be submitted via a Service Call.
The Product Ideas Portal is a platform to submit ideas to enhance the Software Product rather than documentation.
Thank you!

Make Contract Amounts update Correctly
When you are trying to update a Contract Amount on someone's profile under the Contract tab, it will update the Contract Amount, but not the Per Diem Amount. It should update both fields and give you the option to over ride the Per Diem Amounts. That should be fairly rare that you would need them to be different amounts.

Add Account Number as a field on Vendor Profile
Add "Account number" as a field on Vendor Profile. Ideally this field would print on the checks so that vendors could use this information to identify which account to apply the payment to.

Account Adjustment by Specific Dollar Amounts
Payroll account adjustments are currently only able to use percentages. It would be extremely helpful if we were able to also do the accounting adjustments by specific dollar amounts. This would help for situations where you are trying to move part to a grant. Some grants need it down to the exact penny and that can be hard to achieve using percentages.

Org Chart Update Utility
For districts that have multiple org charts used for different purposes, it would be great if there was a utility that could be used to select the org chart(s) and then add, remove, or move an employee on all selected org charts. It is time consuming (and error prone) to have to edit each org chart and take action on the employee one org chart at a time.

Expense Reimbursement Attachments

Fillable PDF
It would be advantageous to have a way when using online/custom forms to be able to have the employee complete a fillable PDF, save it automatically into their profile. They can only answer the questions on the designated form and we wouldn't need to worry about them attaching a document to their profile that wasn't intended. Currently Skyward allows you to send a fillable PDF to the employee but there is no way for them to save it other than to their device and then uploading it into their employee profile. This could be a nightmare with all the documents…

Pulling Active only positions in DM
Need the system to read behind the scenes if a person has terminated out of one job and started another in order for the one position the employee is currently active in is the only position that pulls through on a DM report. EXAMPLE: Employee started the year as custodian at Buck Lake Elem and terminated that assignment on 10/5/2020 and started a new position as a Building Maintenance Supervisor on 10/6/2020 through the end of the fiscal year. The only position that should pull through on a DM report of any kind is the Building Maintenance Supervisor position.

vendor browse
When you select a vendor to view in PAC that is inactive, It automatically takes you to the web. Apparently it is because you cannot inactivate a vendor in PAC, so if you are wanting to make any changes to the vendor profile (like reactivating) it has be be done in web. If I am trying to view it, I should be able to see it in PAC. I can understand if I hit the edit button that it would go to the web, but I am only selecting the vendor in the display screen. This is very time consuming.…

Screener Access
Have the ability to assign multiple screener groups to postings. Your group would be determined by your assignment/location. Part I - If you are an administrator you have xyz rights. If you are a secretary you have abc rights. Part II - then your access would only be to the site that your assignment is at.
We have the ability of filtering by pay type in the access view. So part of the resources is there. In addition, we would like to keep the ability to manually add and remove access as deemed by the district per individualWe also…

Add additional colums to the view.
In using the Status Code view when looking at applications, the system will only allow you to view 10 columns. In addition, it will only allow you to dump into Excel 10 columns. Several of our applications have as many as 16 status codes assigned. We need either to see it in the view or at least be able to dump it to see the overall picture of the workflow processes on a grand scale.

Allow leave balance in EA to be seen but no entering of leave requests
I would like employees to see how much Emergency Paid Sick Leave they have left, but NOT have access to enter that leave.
This might be useful for other types of leave too, i.e. only I can enter unpaid time off, but employees can not see that. Thank you!
3 votesThank you for submitting this idea! We suggest using options that exist in Time Off Setup Request Options.
Navigate to Product Setup > Employee Access > Time Off Setup > Request Options tab, then edit, then uncheck the box “Allow Time Off request in group 9”
Group 9 is a special code typically used for Time Off Requests like Emergency Sick Paid Leave.
If help is needed to set this up, please submit a Service Call and one of our Representatives will be able to assist.
Thank you!

Time off hours should match FTE import/Employee Management
It would be great if the time off hours would auto update to match each imports FTE instead of having to manually update for all of those who have changed each school year. Manually updating Insurance Tracker FTE as well as time off hours.

Add a date range selection to the Credit Card Transaction Board Report
The format of the Credit Card Transaction Board Report is a much cleaner report to give to our Board, but I am not able to pull the report for just the transactions that need approval at the monthly board meeting. There needs to be a date range selection, import date range selection, or batch number selection.

Add to PO printing config the ability to have "Blanket PO" printed on hard copy
If a PO is flagged as a "blanket po" to have that printed on the purchase order like it shows on the Req.
4 votesThank you for submitting this idea. We suggest that you try this instead:
Navigate to Web Finance > Purchasing > Setup > Configuration > Purchase Order Printing Setup to define your PO Form Definition. There is a checkbox at the bottom of the page under “Additional Parameters” to “Print Notes with POs and Requisitions”. The Print Notes with PO’s and Requisitions will print any attached notes with it. So we recommend putting in an actual note that says Blanket PO.
Next, navigate to Web Finance > Purchasing > Set Up > Configuration > Requisition Entry Setup Options > Requisition Entry Options to define your Requisition Entry Options.
Finally, verify in System Admin > Financial Management > Financial Management Configuration that you have “Use Print Engine Purchase Orders” checked.
This set up will allow you to print “Blanket PO” on a Purchase Order.
Thank you!

student groups
We have set up groups for students in TA. We need the function to be able to run the reports that are in the system and filter them by the groups we have added. Example purple group, yellow group and virtual group to be able to run grade sheet reports.

Add lockout warning to log in page
Add a warning to the login page so employees know they will be locked out after 3 failed attempts. I get multiple requests to unlock accounts each day, because people don't know they will be locked out. They just keep trying over and over again. It would be nice if they were instructed to click the Forgot Password link.
