Untie link from Inactive Employee to SMS
With a merged DB. When an employee is entered into the HR side they are forever unable to make changes to the record when they are also in the SM side (it says they are an employee and changes need to be made on that side). Even when the employee is inactive and has not worked her for years. That make it a problem when we add that person as an emergency contact or parent grandparent for phone and address changes. Once an Employee is inactivated on the HR side we should be able to break that tie to them…

Shift Differential vs automatic OT pay code
I would like to submit a request for enhancement for Shift Differential in the Time Keeping Rules where you could select a shift differential pay code rather than it only allowing an automatic OT pay code. We have custodial staff who work evenings and anyone who works hours after 330pm receives a shift differential pay of $.60 per hour. For the last seven years I have manually calculated their shift differential by running a data mining report printing it and then counting their hours that they have worked after 330 pm. This is cumbersome and leaves room for human error.…

Data Mining True Time
In data mining when pulling True Time info it would be helpful to have the information on if the time is unsubmitted submitted approved. Supervisors are able to access their employees’ timesheets based on if they are Unsubmitted Unapproved or History so there must be an indicator already in place with the current status of the time. Currently we have a certain group of employees who when they use a specific pay code need to add a note with an explanation. We run a report to see the dates and notes but we can’t tell if the time has been…

Check Stub Printing
We would like to have the check stub for our checks print in 2 parts instead of having to print the check and then print a separate voucher (and in the case of SBAA they have to photo copy the checks because there isn't a voucher option). We purchased our checks from the Skyward recommended vendor Nelco and the checks come with a perforation in the stub to be able to print that way. We are wasting money and time by having to print vouchers and make photocopies. I'm surprised more districts haven't complained about this. This is an enhancement…
4 votesThank you for submitting this idea. Nelco is the authorized partner of compatible paper forms for the Skyward software. All W-2 and 1099 forms, checks, and school forms are guaranteed 100% compatible. Any issues with the check layout will need to be handled by Nelco as Skyward is unable to alter the format in anyway.

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.…

Entity Id Entry on the Certification Screen
Please enable the ability to enter the Entity ID in the Certification tab. Right now, the field is visible there, but you cannot enter it there, you have to go out to the Name tab. This is time consuming when you are already in the certification field and could just enter it there.

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 -
Prevent Time Off Requests for weeks with True Time sheets already in History
Please update the system to prevent employees from submitting Time Off Requests for weeks where their True Time sheet has already completed the approval/update process and moved to History.
Currently, True Time factors in Time Off Requests if they are edited during the approval process. However, once a True Time sheet is finalized in History, subsequent Time Off Requests do not account for the completed timesheet, causing discrepancies.

Utility to delete Positions that do not have an Assignment.
It would be helpful to have a utility that deletes Positions that do not have any assignments in plan years. We are running into an issue with Position Control where HR is rolling Assignments in chunks. They load each group. Skyward still creates the Position for all of the other groups, just without an assignment. It does it every time they roll, so there are thousands of empty Positions without an Assignment in Position Control. Right now, I have to delete each one individually. A utility would save me hours of time that I spend manually deleting the Positions that…

Create a widget for supervisors to see who has not submitted their timesheets.
It would be nice to have a dashboard widget for supervisors to see which of their employees under them in the org chart has not submitted their timesheet. Currently they would have to take several steps to see who hasn't submitted but there are supervisors that don't want to get into the weeds and take those extra steps. At this this time it takes me (payroll) telling them who has not submitted.

Inactivate employees who are linked in payroll and accounts payable
If an employee leaves the district and is linked to the accounts payable side for payments, we cannot inactivate them on the payroll side. When we try to inactivate them on the vendor side, an error comes up stating that this vendor has payments in the current or previous year and cannot be inactivated.
Please allow districts to inactivate vendors that we no longer wish to use. It was stated that this is because of the 1099 process and ensuring they show up on the 1099 file each year. On the payroll side, inactivated employees show up on the W-2…
3 votesThank you for submitting the product idea - for clarification, are you inactivating the pay records or setting a paid end date? This is the recommended route to ensure users are not being pulled into payroll when they are no longer active employees who also have vendor records.

Automatic Curser Prompt on Authenticator Screen
Please consider adding a default cursor prompt in the Authenticator number field on the Authenticator screen. When logging in, one has to take their hands away from the keyboard/mouse to access the authentication code on the Authenticator app, and then reposition the mouse to the field when typing in the code.
In my experience most authenticator apps automatically place the curser in the authenticator field. This will save time and hassle of repositioning the mouse to type in the 6 digit code.

Please make check request invoice information "talk" to the rest of Skyward
Currently if a duplicate invoice is entered through A/P, Skyward will alert the user that the invoice is already in the system. Unfortunately, if a check request is entered with a duplicate invoice number, it does not alert the user. We have run into duplicate payments as some invoices come to A/P for payment unaware that a teacher has also received it and enters a check request a month after A/P has already paid it. Neither person gets any kind of notice that the invoice in check request is already in the system. These duplicate payments are not good accounting…

Add option to have building limits on specific time off request. Especially for personal days for teachers and aides.
Add option to have building limits on specific time off request. Especially for personal days for teachers and aides.
3 votesThank you for submitting the product idea!
Could you expand on the use case for this?
Would this be used for employees who work in multiple buildings and have different supervisors, so they would be submitting time off requests to different supervisors based on their building they are working at?
Thank you for your input!

Allow user to view notes on a Task Step that has been completed.
After completing a step for a task, the user can see this in the Task History. They cannot see the note that they added. This would be useful when they need to reference this information after the fact.
