Staff assignment screen - View Add on button
1) When you view a staff assignment we need a View button on the Add-on screen that will open up the Add-on maintenance window. Currently there is no View button available. In order to view the information we have to go through Edit Staff Assignment and then Edit the Add-ons.
2) On the Add-on screen the Amount we see is the Calculated/Add-on amount - a prorated amount based on Calculated FTE. When we make assignment changes we need to be able to see the actual add-on salary amount. If one were to inadvertently use this value on a new assignment…

Update PSERS reporting for Sabbatical leave
Need Skyward to update PSERS state reporting correctly for Sabbatical leave.
We were given a solution in SKYWARD to create correction contributions but not a way (except with a manual change in state reporting) to report the wages as described below.
From PSERS ManualDuring the period of the leave the member must be paid 50% or more of their contracted salary. The
employer reports the actual amount paid to the member as well as the unpaid portion (totaling 100% of
contracted salary) each month. Members are considered to be in regular daily attendance during the
period of the leave…
44 votesThank you for submitting this request to the Ideas Portal. In reviewing this request with our State Reporting and Compliance Department, while our current process involves a small portion for manual verification, we are compliant with the PSERS reporting manual specifications.

email PO orgin for items marked as pending receipt
To generate an email when the AP department puts an invoice in "pending receipt status". This would save them from having to send an email out separately to remind them or verify that they have received the items in question.
Add a notification similar to those that are under "user preference" for requisitions. Or also it could be possible added under the FM Config where we can set up to have an email sent to the originator when a PO exceeds to the PO amount by a certain %.43 votesThank you for submitting this idea.

Edit the default flag on Employee Assignment
In discussing an issue in automating Active Directory record creation from Skyward the problem of staff assigned to multiple schools was identified. As Active Directory should only have a single record for a user a way to select the correct record of the multiple assignments that a staff member user could have in a year is needed. One suggestion was to make the current HPMASN-ASSIGNMENTS.HPMASN-PRIMARY-X field accessible in the UI so Personnel could make this determination of the primary 'home' assignment in these cases. The SIF agent could then pick this up for use in creating a single active directory…

EXPORT TO EXCEL DATE NEEDED
It would be nice if there was a date you could enter when looking at history to only export from that date forward. This is available on a lot of the screens in PAC where the export to excel option is.

Ability to rename time off allotment codes.
It would be helpful to be able to rename time off allotment codes. The description can be edited but the code itself can't be renamed. As groups change their time off agreements the allotment code can become less helpful when selecting. Creating new allotment codes isn't efficient because then it needs to be changed at the employee level and the list of codes is a mixture of current and outdated codes.
A process similar to the renaming of pay codes deductions benefits and employee types would be great. The code is renamed everywhere it is used in the system. For…

Mass Delete Pay Code
In the Mass Processing utility I'd like to see a way to mass delete a pay code with a particular account number even if it has history. We tend to have grants that pay salaries that are only good for a number of years. To be able to mass delete a number of pay codes at the same time would be helpful and time saving.

Proxy on Expense reports
Goal: Be able to enter an expense report on another persons behalf. This would be helpful if a manager hands off a receipt for reimbursement the assistant is able to enter this as an expense and be the "proxy" for the manager. The assistant would enter the information and the approval would go to the manager for approval and then through workflow if needed.
The expected outcome would be keeping the check request and expense reimbursements separated and still be able to see workflow.34 votesThank you for submitting this idea.

Give employee an error if they try to submit a time sheet before their time off is approved
Currently an employee can submit their time sheet before their time off request has been approved. This causes the time sheet to error out when we are trying to import time sheets and we have to denie the time sheet and call the the supervisor or employee to get this fixed before we can continue with payroll.
30 votesThank you for submitting this idea.
This functionality already exists in Skyward. If an employee submits their time sheets from web, mobile, and reader when an unapproved time off request is out there for that week validation exists to prevent the user from submitting the time sheet.
There is also validation when the time sheet is being approved to catch any unapproved time off requests at that point.
Is the situation that the time off requests are being put in after the time sheet has been submitted/approved?
Thank you!

We want the ability to auto approve the Primary ma
Auto approving address in employee access. You will not be able to use the auto approve option for the reason below:
When an employee changes their address they enter a new street direction city zip. If the employee chooses a street city or zip that is not entered in your system already Skyward doesn't have a data table to pull this information from. Remember when you enter an address in profile there is a table that auto fills with the street info. If you are entering a street that has never been entered before you have to add that street…

Add the ability to import data into AR Invoices
We need the ability to import data from EXCEL into AR invoices in the same manner it is possible to populate journal entries from an EXCEL Spreadsheet. Unlike schools we do not receive state funding and therefore operate more like a business which requires monthly bills for services rendered--so an efficient AR process is critical to our success.
Our billing data comes primarily from two separate databases--one is our workshop registration software the other is an internal database built in Drupal. Inputting the data into Skyward is too laborious with too many clicks and is of course a redundant process…22 votesThank you for submitting this idea.

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.
8 votesThank you for submitting this ideas request.
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…

It would be great if you could print Copy A that is submitted to the IRS for 1099's, if there is an issue efile you can submit via mail
It would be great if Copy A of 1099s can be printed from skyward. If there is an issue wit e-file with the IRS there is an option to print instead of handwrite all 1099's
4 votesThank you for submitting this idea. Our Federal Reporting and Compliance Department reviewed it and provided the following response:
Because Copy A is only valid when printed on specialized paper forms obtained directly through the IRS, it is in the best interest of our users to not offer that particular printing option since submitting the forms on the wrong paper could result in penalties from the IRS.

export to excel
When reports can be converted from a PDF to an excel format, the data should align correctly with their column heading. An example of this would be the Requisition/PO Listing WF/PU/RP. Thanks

We’ve looked into this request and are unable to consider it at this time.
Reports that have stacked headers and stacked detail lines do not drop to excel gracefully. One option that is used by some users is filtering the browse and dumping those results to excel.
This product idea will remain open.
