Auto -generated e-mail to teacher when student punches the tardy kiosk.
Auto-generated e-mail to teacher when student punches the tardy kiosk. This would let the teacher know that the student was coming and the teacher could notify the office if the student did not arrive. This would eliminate students punching the kiosk and then not going to class.

Paying an employee without a contract
Would there be a way to have an exception show up when you are paying an employee without a contract? For instance having a teacher contract. The teacher has termed but the factor is not taken out so they are pulled into payroll. Paid an employee 4 extra times before she said anything. I removed it from payroll but forgot to take out the factor. This would help with that problem. Expected outcome would be that the employee with the exception should/would not get a paycheck. Being able to choose the type of contract would be helpful. CSC CSC10 C12…

Add Automated Emails to HR/Finance database
We would really like to be able to use Automated Emails in our HR/Finance database like we do with our Student database. For example we would like to send an automated email when new hires are added and be able to filter on their employee type. It is already in place on the Student side. We are hoping it can be added to the HR/Finance side too. It will increase efficiency by automating notifications.

We are having a problem with the Credit Card Vendor Cross Reference and specifically Amazon.
We are having a problem with the Credit Card Vendor Cross Reference and specifically Amazon. Amazon must have changed something because each transaction now has its own version of an Amazon vendor. Last month I had to match-up 40 separate transactions to our Skyward Amazon vendor. My suggestion would be to give users the option to match the first 6 or 8 characters and have the vendor match not have to be an exact match for vendors that they choose.

Changes made to the TRS Staff Salary New Extract
The extract has been changed to only include active employees. However To provide accurate reporting on TEA Staff Salary report. Inactive Profiles need to be added back to the extraction which include the last payroll and term dates. Also it would be better for the extraction to pull from pay history and not just active employees. I am going back checking some things with the new way of reporting it would be nice if the Skyward report had which month the data is extracted from when looking at multiple months. Having the terms and inactive profiles is helpful sometimes we…

Open Enrollment
Open Enrollment Email Notifications for submissions and approvals
Currently the only email options available in Open Enrollment are for unsubmitted and denials.
Create email notifications to advise the employee when their plans have been successfully submitted. Right now the only indication is the Submit to HR button changes color. We find employees to not see the Status column.
An email should also be generated when their plans have been approved. We get numerous calls from employees asking for their plan status.12 votes -
Account Transaction Ledger
We can run a report to show the transactions on an account but cannot see the other side. We want to be able to track all the transactions against an account - both debits and credits to see both sides of the transactions. For instance we want to see the activity for our discount GL but need to see the other side of that posting. For now we have to drill into each transaction to look for the debit/credit against that transaction - for every transaction.

Column heading updated to Status of Insurance Request
Online open enrollment has 1 important column without a header. It is currently listed as S. It should be spelled out like all the other header columns. Status of Insurance Request. This would eliminate an abundance of phone calls asking what the status is on their enrollment. Yes it common sense to check that column but apparently not to none benefit people.

Ability to import data into Personnel records
We need the ability to import information into the Name table. Currently we have a need to move the phone number from the primary phone field into the second phone field as it is blank for most users. The second phone will be used to call for emergency school closures as the primary phone field contains the school number pulled in state reporting. Currently we use PowerSchool for our Student information. They have the ability using the key field for the table as Entry 1 and then specifying the field where the information is to be placed.

Tie pay record dates to contract dates
When you connect a pay record to a contract the pay record should stop when the contract dates end. So if an employee does not continue on with a new contract for that pay record the next year it won't automatically pay out. In the contract area you could put a box to ask if you don't want that.
37 votesThank you for submitting this idea. We need your feedback to clarify this request.
Is this request to make it so the pay record “by default” uses the paid start/stop dates on the CONTRACT to stop paying the pay record whether or not they’ve imported paid start/stop dates into their pay records with the assignment export/payroll import?
If you have additional information to help clarify what you’d like to see updated or expect to see changed that will help us.
Thank you!

Add Description to Check Request screens
Currently our Admin's are entering check requests and required to enter Budget or Internal as the first word of their description. We have two processors and their workload is based on Budget and Internal accounts. If the Admin forgets to enter budget/internal name they could be overlooked by a specific processor. Our Admin's have asked that the description be a filter field so they can see all their submitted check requests with the detail and description so they ensure they have entered budget/internal. Admin's will have one activity view to quickly scan and make sure the word budget/internal is listed.…

Add dates to Budgetary Data Mining
I honestly thought that these fields were previously available in Budgetary Data Mining. If they were there they are gone now. Notice from my attachments how HR Employee Data Mining can be sorted or found by the creation or last run date. These field are not available in Budgetary Data mining and they should be. This way we can easily sort find use or delete reports based on their creation or last run dates. We have so many data mining reports now it is very difficult to find the one you want without those dates. I've tried to flag them…

ELP and Family Access
When parents login to Family Access and look at the Grade Marks screen the red yellow green color coding we have set up in Expected Levels of Performance does not appear. For parents to be able to see the color coding they have to click on the book icon for the grading period and then click show all events. We would like for our parents to not have to go through so many steps. Also I have been informed the color coding does not show up on the mobile app at all. We have been encouraging teachers to use ELP…
