Background Check Section set to Confidential
We are adding the required Pre-Employment Affidavit to the Background Check Questions portion of our Fast Track Applications. In order for our district to be in compliance with Senate Bill 7 we would like to request for Skyward to add functionality for the Background Check Questions portion of the application to be confidential.

Employee expense reimbursement - pre-verifier
We have struggled with the preverifier option forever. I would like to request that you change this option to allow for a blank preverifier and the user must be required to choose the proper preverifier from a drop down list.
Currently the system makes us default a preverifier. Our employees always forget to change it to the correct person! I then need to deny the request and email them to log back in and change the preverifier and resubmit their request.
By allowing this field to be empty and required when a user is entering a reimbursement request they will…5 votes -

Inability to Post-Date transactions to SBAA
There is not a way to Post-Date transactions in SBAA more than 90 days. So you CAN NOT post prior-Year adjustments in SBAA. Which means if you do not close out SBAA before approx. November 28 for a August 31 year-end you can not close out the year properly. You need to let Administrators either post date further back than 90 days or be able to post Previous Year adjustments.

Manually Imput ACA Hours
Whenever adding dates the fields are cleared out each time. It would be nice if there was a "Save and Add Another" button that could be clicked when making multiple entries. With this feature the fields would stay populated with the previous data input. Then it would only be necessary to change the date and click "Save and Add Another". Most of the time the Pay Code and Hours are the same. This would be more efficient than inputting repetitive data over and over when multiple days of data need to be manually entered.
The expected outcome would be to…4 votes -
Expand New Hire Request Org Chart Functionality
New Hire request need to have conditional routing at different levels. Currently we are limited and do not have conditional routing and are requiring the use of filters and end users having to approve one below as opposed to the requests routing directing to their queue. The expected outcome is for anyone creating/approving a New Hire Requisition to have the ability to choose from a drop-down who to route the form to. Currently this functionality exists in the time-off module where an end user can select more than one person to have their leave approved. Similarly we would like for…

Blocking Individual Vendors
I would love to have the ability to block access to individual vendors - invoice history and/or attachments. For example I would like to block the ability to see legal vendors for most of the employees who have vendor view securities. We scan in invoices and I believe the details contained in some legal invoices should not be seen by everyone.
Without this ability we will most likely stop scanning in legal invoices.12 votes -
Add an information line to CCd Time Off requests
Employees requesting time off can choose to notify other employees of that request and the result is that the selected employees are CCd on the full email chain of that request often with subject lines like New Time Off Request for Your Approval. When they read the body they can see that they are not actually an approver but employees get confused about why they are receiving these notifications. I would like to help eliminate some of this confusing by adding a one line information sentence to the start of these emails when employees are CCd. For employees receiving carbon…

Mass Account Add
Need the Mass addition of accounts added to the import process. This function is already available in Budget Entry and would be very beneficial in the revisions. This would allow for addition of accounts for money not included in the original budget adoption. Currently the process is to manually add accounts to the COA which can be in the hundreds and then import the spreadsheet to load money.

Changes 1099 Values in Check Request module
When I was running our 1099's for the 2017 CY all of our vendors were defaulted to box 7. As indicated below from Skyward I would need to un-check the box when I am looking at check requests. This is not a great option for us as we are not a PO district and I would have to edit every check request to un-check the 1099 box as the system auto checks this box because we have 1099 information setup.
The program is working as it is intended. If you go the Web AP Check Requests Submit Add. If you…

Custom Audit Better Unemploy Comp Program Report
Attached is a copy of the report form that is needed to submit to PSBA. We currently are running this report in Microsoft Access and this process requires many steps to accomplish. Please note that a software competitor CSIU has created this report for their clients. This is displayed at the bottom of this form.
Our hope is that this report can be processed within Skyward and any user with payroll permissions can run.1 voteCould you please attach a copy of the report form that is needed to submit to PSBA? It’s not currently attached to this Product Idea.

Mass Clone AP Invoice Does Not Clone Check Type
When doing a mass clone of an accounts payable invoice the check type comes through as Regular. The invoice entered that is being cloned is ACH. All invoices are payments to employees that are all set up on ACH. We would like the check type to populate correctly with ACH as a true clone of the original invoice rather than needing to edit each invoice. Thank you.

Purchase Order Electronic Signatures
In PAC we have the ability to select from 5 signatures when we print purchase orders. The selection is based on the administrator approving the PO. Currently we don't have the ability to do this on the web. So requisitions are processed on the web and then printed from PAC so the signature can be selected. Our preference would be to do the whole process on the Web vs going back and forth between systems.

Ability to mass change expiration dates for certif
MDE (MN Dept of Education) is upgrading to a tiered licensing system. To achieve this they will be extending all existing teacher licenses by one year from their current expiration date. All licenses expiring 6/30/18 will be extended to 6/30/19. Similarly 19 will go to 20 20 will go to 21 21 will go to 22 and 22 will go to 23. If not able to mass change it will require all schools in MN to manually update the expiration date of all teachers. This will increase the possibility of errors in the future.
By allowing a mass update by…57 votesThank you for submitting and voting on this idea.
We’ve researched this request and current SMS 2.0 functionality and we suggest trying this instead:
Create a Data Mining Report from Human Resources > Employee> Data Mining to pull certification information. You can export the Data Mining Report to an excel spreadsheet to mass update expiration dates.
Then, navigate to Human Resources > Employee > Product Setup> Utilities > Certifications Import. You can re-import the Data Mining spreadsheet with all the updated certification expiration dates.
Please be sure to verify the Expiration Date is not checked for the Creation Criteria on the import. This process will allow you to mass update all certification expiration dates.
Thank you!

Limiting Time Off Requests to 1 per day
It would be helpful if there was a configuration option to limit the requested number of Time Off transactions to 1 per day. There currently is an option to 'Prevent employees from requesting more than one day off with a single Time Off transaction' but no option to limit the number of requests to 1 per day. ie: Option to stop the entry of 1 sick day and then 1 authorized day on the same date/time.

Upon further technical review, it has been decided we will not be moving forward with this request at this time due to the differences in expected functionality and the complexity of solving for all possible scenarios.
Please continue to contribute your ideas — they push us to innovate, problem solve, and really understand your needs.

Add confirmation email "reply to" option
From within Online Forms a custom email can be sent after completion of the online form. We would like the ability to enter a "reply to" or "from" email address for this message. Currently the reply-to email is the default reply-to email for the entire system which in our case is HR/Finance and Student. We typically have the default set up as a noreply email but we want the Online Form confirmation email to have a valid reply-to email when we use Online Forms for our insurance Open Enrollment process. So during our Open Enrollment all emails that are sent…
38 votesThank you for submitting this idea. We need your feedback.
We need some clarification on your current process.
Are you processing Open Enrollment outside of Skyward? We ask because Online Forms is not what is used for Open Enrollment in Skyward. Custom Forms are used for Open Enrollment and we currently don’t have an Email option linked with Custom Forms.
Thanks for your feedback and thanks for walking us through your process so we can better understand this request!

AR Statement Pymts Listing
When printing and emailing AR statements it would be nice if the "Payments" section would be listed differently. Payors do not understand how they are listed now.
If the payments could be listed chronologically by full payment only like in tab "4 Payment" in Payor Master it would be much more readable and cut down on a lot of phone calls.51 votesThank you for submitting and voting on this idea. We’ve spent some time researching this idea. We have concluded that that we will not be pursuing this enhancement at this time.
We recommend using the “Number of Days Back” option in SBAA for Accounting control.
