Online Form - Add view: Not Completed Online Forms (to include In Progress and Not Started)
We use Online Forms to send out contracts and addendums to employees and to collect electronic signatures. Currently, we have 20 Online Forms set up for the different contracts and employee groups. Within the Online Form there are two Views, In Progress Online Forms and Not Started Online Forms, that can be used to email reminders to employees. We would like an additional view added, Not Completed Online Forms, that includes both In Progress and Not Started Online Forms. This way mass email reminders could be sent to both sets of people at the same time; currently, we are sending…

Sort option by "complete" worksheets in PAC
Would be a huge efficiency if we could sort by "complete" in PAC. We have around 500 worksheets, so this would be a huge time saver and reduce errors by making sure all the "complete" worksheets are pulled into payroll.

Track Probation
Support Staff are eligible for time off after they have completed 90 days of employment. It would be helpful to have a field on the Salary Information/Term of Position screen which would calculate that date based on 90 days from their start date using the calendar in their Salary Information in Assignment Maintenance.
3 votesThank you for submitting and voting on this idea. We suggest that you try this instead:
Navigate to Web Human Resources > Time Off > Setup > Utilities > Run the Probation Utility to Calculate Time Off Eligibility.
Next, navigate to My Print Queue, select the Probation Utility to Calculate Time Off, which you just ran, then click on “Tasks”.
Next, click on “Schedule This” to create a Scheduled Task with the selected utility (Probation Utility to Calculate Time Off).
Thank you!

Verify funds pie graph for Check Request approvals

Utility Added for SubTracking
We would like a utility added that would keep someone from putting in two different substitutes for the same teacher on the same day. We are running into some scheduling a sub and putting them in the system and then when the day comes that sub doesn't show up and another is called and then that one is put in as well without removing the original sub. We would like to see an error message pop up when the second sub is being added for a teacher stating that there is already a sub in place so that they know…

Require a separate approval for certain vendors
We would like to monitor purchases from a particular vendor Amazon. By having an approval by vendor we can approve prior to the purchase regardless of the dollar amount of the purchase. Without this enhancement we either don't have prior authorization for the purchase or we have to approve all purchase orders (which is not currently a requirement for our district). This would put a significant burden on our Purchasing Department. Staff consistently purchase items from Amazon that are not necessarily appropriate for school use (via pcard). We are adding Amazon as an ECommerce vendor so we can ensure these…

- Do you use a specific account for eCommerce orders?
Thank you for your additional input!

Select Phone Category Field in Employee Access
Enable employees to maintain their phone numbers and select Phone Category and Type. This information would then populate the information on the Phone/Email tab. District could have a Notification Phone Category so that users could select to use for school closing. Data could then be exported and uploaded to 3rd party software. Districts are currently requesting the information it is not updated in Skyward only in the 3rd party software. Would allow single entry of data. Employees can keep their phone numbers updated for notification when necessary. Districts could have an open period to allow employees to update their numbers…

Positive Pay for SBAA

Need Ability to Add More Than 30 Detail Lines
Users cannot add more than 30 detail lines in Detail Line Entry. They have to create 2 RQ's when spreading expenses across 35 schools using the same Invoice number with the suffix of a and b. Users should be able to click and Add More button and add an unlimited number of detail lines (or at lease well over 30).

Mass add auto approval rules
In the Purchase order groups setup I currently have to go into each group to update the auto approval rules. I would like a mass add function so that I can select multiple groups and apply the auto approval rules to the groups that I select so that I don't have to individually update every one of them. This would be a great time saver!

Garnishment calculation
US Department of Education calculates disposable earnings as Gross less taxes less health insurance less WRS pension. Also has a base minimum poverty earnings that excludes the deduction is earnings are too low. Skyward only has the standard disposable calculation of Gross less taxes. Negative impact: Federal Law failure to comply with correct calculation. Add another disposable calculation option that follow the US Dept of Education calculation that also includes the option of minimum earnings by employee.

Enhancements to the EM Pay Distribution Report
Would like to have an option to Display Repeating Fields so that we can convert to Excel and have the account codes listed for each person. We'd also like to have the building code and FTE added to this report. Our goal would be to have something similar to the Employee Costing Report found under Salary Negotiations. See attached file with screen shots. Either add an option to Display Repeating fields (as used in the Payroll Account Distribution Report) or adjust the Convert to Excel process to repeat the account codes. The current report has room for more fields to…

Employees need to identify type of phone and email
Employees need to be able to identify which type of phone and email each one is. Currently they can’t identify any phone number and only emails 2-4 can be identified via employee access. On the HR side I can however identify phone 2 and 3 but not one. Our request would be that via employee access they can identify all phone numbers and email addresses. If not they should be specified by the system. Our request would be that via employee access employees can identify all phone numbers and email addresses.
