Re-print damaged checks without having to update accounting
After printing paper checks but prior to Accounting update, include a question if all checks printed correctly. If the answer is yes, the accounting update proceeds as normal. If the answer is no, populate the list of checks that were printed with a checkbox next to each one. Checks that did not print properly would have the box(es) marked, along with a new print range for blank checks. This process repeats itself until all checks print properly.
4 votesThank you for submitting this idea. At this time, we will not consider it for development.
Skyward does allow the reprint of checks prior to the Update option.
It is our recommended best practice for all districts to review the checks to confirm they have printed correctly prior to running the update.
During the update process Skyward provides a “triple confirmation”. When updating: you have to click Update, which brings you to the Update screen, then you have to click Update again, and then you receive a final window prompt to confirm you want to update.
The ability to choose to print only certain pages exist through standard printer options.
This idea will remain open for continued voting and commenting by the Skyward user community.
Thank you!

Task Manager on the Finance side
Our district would like to be able to use Task Manager on the Finance side. It is very popular on the Human Resources side.
4 votesThank you for submitting this idea. The ability to use Task Manager on the Finance side is available in Skyward.
We advise submitting a Service Call if assistance is needed in setting up a specific task.
Thank you!

PAYROLL AP - WIRE INVOICES
Instead of payroll producing one invoice for each deduction code, we need an option implemented to combine all payroll invoices for all codes into one invoice if they have the same vendor.
I think this could be done either with an option on the deduction code setup or even in the payroll general settings for Payroll Check options.
this would help reduce the number of wire transactions created since they are normally paid in one group and make reconciliation on the Checks easier for the business manager.
4 votesThank you for submitting this request.
We suggest you try this:
In PaC, go to System Administration, Financial Management, Financial Management Config, Accounts Payable. Make sure the box “Combine Vendor For Wire Transfers” is checked.
Thank you!

Credit card transactions pdf
Would it be possible to get the credit card transaction to appear somewhere on the PO? We attach the receipts to the transaction but are not able to view these documents on the PO. That is a tremendous amount of work that takes place in order to attach receipts to a transaction and then not be able to view it later withing the po. It takes me 21 clicks to attach a receipt.

Add Supervisor to Data Mining
We can add a supervisor to an assignment, but it doesn't appear we can run a data mine with that field available. It would be helpful to have all fields of an assignment used in reports.

vendor approval
Can we have the option to have multiple vendor approvals like time offs. When one person approves a vendor, it can then go to another person and does not get approved until it has been approved by all approvers. Currently, if any approvers approve, it is goes through. The reason is because we require our individual vendors to go through a background check. We would like our HR department to approve the vendors so we know they passed the background requirements before the vendor is approved.

W-4 2020
The system should now be updated so the default for new employees should be with the W-4 for 2020 as Single with no adjustments. It shouldn't have the prior year defaults and require us to to click on 2020 or after W-4 for every new person going forward. I thought no changes were going to be allowed in the system for prior to the 2020 W-4 form. It should be switched at this point to default to 2020 info and just leave the prior info as viewing if not changed to 2020.

Option to auto create vendor on employee add - individually not mass
I would like to see an option when creating a new employee to create a vendor at the same time for that employee. However I don't want this to be a system wide/mass add option. We don't want to add every employee as a vendor, just certain ones. A check box during the employee creation would be great. This would trigger the vendor to be created and carryover ACH info to vendor profile automatically.

Certification details
Currently can enter the issue/expiration dates for the certification master section. Need the ability to enter issue/expiration dates on the certification detail section in order to determine infield/outfield status. Example is a teacher who gets an additional certification area 3 years into the certificate but should not be reported as infield for that area before the addition area was received.

Change positive/negative sign for Revenue/Expense.
It would be nice to give users the option to "flip the signs" so Revenues would show as a positive and Expenses would show as a negative. This would make the Data Mining reports easier for "non-accountants" to understand. We recently moved from a different software program to Skyward, and some of our users (building secretaries) are confused by the way revenues and expenses are reflected.

Print Commodity Codes on Purchase Orders (EDGAR "Like-Type" Items)
The TEA letter from November 2018 regarding micro purchase thresholds under EDGAR have made it more important than ever to accurately measure our purchasing levels in like-type categories. Because of this, more districts will begin utilizing the Commodity Code feature in Skyward. Having the ability to print commodity codes on POs will greatly assist our end users with determining which commodity code to use on new requisitions.

Filter on all screens
It would be very helpful if you are on any screen (i.e. - chart of account) where you can right-click and filter out certain information. For example, If I am looking at chart of accounts and filter on salary accounts, but I want to exclude overtime in my view. I would be able to right-click and either exclude every account that has the word "overtime" or exclude the object code for overtime. Instead of download the chart of account to excel and doing this filter through excel.

Employee Locator - Limit viewing to ORG Chart structure
Employee Locator - Limit viewing to ORG Chart structure
Employee locator is a great feature under employee access. It is currently an OFF/ON feature. We do have it turned ON. However, aides and teachers can currently see Superintendent, Principals, and the personal time off and reasons listed for every employee in Skyward. This is information that we feel everyone should not be able to see. Having viewing access limited based upon the ORG Chart would be a great addition to Employee Locator in Skyward. I recently found out that Skyward employees already have something similar to this hard-coded into your…

Prevent Employees from Requesting More Hours Than Setup
In Employee Access, employees will get an pop-up message warning them that they are requesting more hours than the number of hours per day in their time off setup. However, this is a warning only. Employees can click OK and submit the request anyway. I'd like to see an option for making this an error instead of a warning to prevent employees from submitting such requests.
