When "importing benefits from pay records" in SN, is it possible not to wipe out _Vacant employees manually entered benefits?
I create a Subs & Extra hours plan that I use each year for budgeting purposes in SN. This year I noticed when I combined my EM active plan and my SN Subs & Extra Hours plan into a SN Combined Budget plan and then imported benefits from pay records, it wiped out the _Vacant benefits from the plan. Then when I Generated Plan Detail, no benefit amounts were calculated for _Vacant positions.

Annual Reimbursement Limits
Allow for annual reimbursement limits. Example: Each year teacher's can receive up to $50 reimbursed for dues/professional membership fees. In Skyward, you can set a limit on the reimbursement type of $50, however that does not stop a teacher from being able to submit multiple requests of $50.

When Using the Tardy Kiosk, have option to NOT ALLOW a Tardy Kiosk entry from overwriting Already Entered Attendance
There's no way to tell the Tardy Kiosk to not overwrite attendance codes already entered in attendance. So if there is an entry in attendance, and a student punches in at the tardy kiosk, that entry overwrites the attendance code already there.

GIving supervisors access to run payroll reports for only their staff
GIving supervisors access to run payroll reports for only their staff. Right now if I give a supervisor access to account distribution, they are able to run this report for anyone on staff but I only want them to be able to run this report for their staff.

Please create a report meeting WRS specs for mid year mass terms and enrollments
Please create a report that would meet WRS specs for the massive amounts of mid year terms and enrollments. We can data mine the information needed however, the set up and format they require is something that has to be designed by our software provider to meet the requirements that WRS has.

An option to tag necessary personnel on leave requests automatically.
There needs to be an option for online leave requests to automatically go to the necessary personnel. Currently it automatically goes to the admin who needs to approve it, but employees need to remember to tag me on the request. As the person who tracks time off and finds subs for every building, this is an ongoing headache, as not everyone remembers to tag me, despite the fact I have an alert that pops up that reminds them to do this every time they go to submit a request.

Disable the ability to delete time off/leave request after submitting.
It would be helpful if there was an option that would keep employees from deleting their requests after they have submitted them, or give me a notice that they did delete it. If they submit and then delete, the system gives no notification that it was deleted. As the person who arranges subs for the district, this is not good because I have already received the notice they need a sub, but no notice they no longer need one, which will result in a sub showing up for work when not needed. (I am aware they can't delete it after…

To have the option in a pay code for OT to be Yes and Comp Time No.
I have more situations in which a primary code will earn comp time. Then an extra duty code will earn overtime. However in Skyward I do not have the option to pay overtime without the comp time being marked as Yes. I can not pay both overtime and comp time for the same pay code. I would like to have the option changed to Over time Yes and select Yes or No for Comp Time so that this will pull into worksheets correctly.

Option to reprint vouchers in Accounts Payable or a system setting to not move forward until opened
In Kansas, our PR and AP clerks are both having issues remembering to print their vouchers while doing PR and AP. My PR clerk is trying to get into the habit of saving those each time but forgets to do that and print them sometimes. Is there a way to go back and reprint vouchers that you know of? If not then could a setting be added to not move onto the next section in AP until vouchers are printed or at least opened. This is the option if you don't print checks, but would like to see that added…

Marking Employees Who Have A Medical Concern (Same as is done in the Student Management side)
We would like to be able to mark an employee's profile similar to the way it is done on the student side who has a medical concern (IE peanut allergy, pacemaker, diabetic). This will prompt our health service team to be able to quickly manage emergencies for our employees very much like we do for students

Custom Forms are a great option to store this information currently within Skyward. As the custom forms have their own tab within profile, you have the ability to send this out through Online Forms as well for them to complete in Employee Access and can then easily access the information.
You can also secure these online forms so only users with proper security are able to access this information and keep the medical history confidential.

Provide the ability for users to elect to hide SSN when running the Accumulated Sick Leave & Vacation Report
With this report being generated and possibly sent to employees with no need to see SSN, it would be great if could to hide SSN when running the Accumulated Sick Leave & Vacation Report. Similar functionality exists elsewhere in the software and it makes sense to add it here as well.

Employee Access/Ethnicity
When allowing employees to change their Ethnicity in Employee Access, instead of Hispanic/Latino?, two separate boxes would be most beneficial. One box that states Hispanic Latino and another that states Non Hispanic/Latino

Time Sheet Adjustments Waiting My Approval
Supervisors would like a Widget: Time Sheets Adjustments Waiting My Approval. This would allow Supervisors to see adjustments that need to be made, from their dashboard, and then click the link to go straight to making the adjustments. Right now we have to go and find the adjustments.

Please put the view option back on the position tab for assignments!!
As a payroll specialist I was consistently/constantly using the Position View button to check information and to be able to answer questions for employees such as is there an add on to the pay base, what is the hourly rate, were the dates correct that were entered in Employee Management etc. The view tab was removed as it was considered an "enhancement" as it was moving all EM parts to the web but this is terrible for anyone in payroll. Please please please put it back until all of payroll is moved to the Web.

We definitely could have gotten in front of this better that these buttons were going to be taken away and we will make sure next time we decide to take any buttons away for data integrity and efficiency, we will make sure we inform our valued customers way ahead of time.
The reason we committed to this enhancement is because Employee Management is no longer supported in PaC. The system did not handle the new salary calculation method and new scenarios correctly such as additional pay codes and add-ons, which ultimately could have shown inaccurate data for employees.
There are many efficiencies to using the web. Example: currently if you are running payroll or running a report and want to look at assignment information in PaC you would have to back all the way out of what you were doing to go to…

Download application and all the attachments in one combined manner
Currently, when my team onboards someone, they have to pull all records out of FastTrack in order to preserve the application, cover letter, etc. by dragging it into the new hire’s OptiView file. For each
person, I’d estimate this takes about 20 minutes which is very significant when multiplied by the sheer number of hires we have coming through. If we were able to download the application and all the attachments in one combined manner, that would save a huge amount of time over the course of a year. Is there a way that Skyward can facilitate that happening?7 votes -
User Security Reports
Historical Change Audit and Group Change reports need an option to select changes that were only made by a specific person. When investigating what one person did you have to work thru hundreds of pages of user failed login and additional security changes that have no value to the inquiry.
