Ability to select multiple checks when reconciling checks using mass add statement date
Currently, mass add statement date provides no option to select multiple checks at one time on WF\AP\CR\CR screen in a simple manner (you can use filters, but they are clunky at best). You should be able to select the first check in a range, then press shift & select the last check in a range to select all checks in that range.

UID Mass Update
Being able to have a mass delete UID utility with parameter options would be very helpful. Currently only way to update employees in TSDS is the delete UID one by one and then be able to extract to upload to TSDS. With a UID in the profile record will not extract. The majority of our staff is still showing location from initial upload to TSDS. Or sometimes when staff return after resigning but were employed in another location, UID is still in profile due to being needed on service records. Having this type of utility would be very helpful to…

Customizable Assignment Category
It would be helpful to have a customizable category in assignments so I can name it what I want.
Example, we have core components that have to be passed at 80% or better. If they were color coded and labeled by my terms, it would be super easy to see who I need to work with for that category in my gradebook and in reports.

Custom Form Lookup Warning
It would be great if there was a warning when you try to modify/rename a Custom Field for a custom form. I forgot that the fielc on Custom Form does not update, so it appears orphaned.

The Ability to Choose the Bank for Benefit and Deduction AP Claims Created During Payroll
In Indiana, most of us are probably utilize the consolidated fund set up for our AP claims created during a payroll process due to the number of funds Indiana has. There needs to be a way to allow us to choose more than one bank account for all of these AP claims to be paid from. Currently all of ours are set up to be paid from our payroll bank. However, all of our FICA, Medicare, PERF, TRF, AUL, VALIC, Health Ins benefits are ACH'd from our AP bank. The only way to make our scenario work is to 1)…

Thanks for the updates
I really appreciate the simple updates for the current school year: being able to organize students in the list by first or last name is so helpful when I'm doing online grading with Moodle or Google classroom and the scores automatically go into their spreadsheets by first name. So that has been really helpful. Another thing I really appreciate that you've done this year is adding the "all absent" button. Being able to quickly select all students "absent," "tardy," or "present" saves a ton of time and really streamlines this process I need to do quickly at the beginning of…

wellness screening fields
It would be helpful to have the "employee type" field appear on the wellness screening reports. This way when there is a failed or incomplete response, we can filter by employee type and inform the correct supervisor that their employees did not complete/failed the responses.
2 votesThank you for submitting the product idea!
Is the idea that the browse would have a column which displays the employee type, like the building field as an example, and then you can click on that column to sort appropriately?
Thank you!

Make sure there is a phone number listed in Family Access when family edits or changes info.
Is there a way to prompt families when they remove their landline in Family Access? When a family edits or removed the number, they are not getting called for negative balances of Food Lunch Account because we pull from there. Many families do not have landlines so they take that number out but are not replacing it with anything else. A prompt to put their cell # there would be great. Thank you

Substitute Tracking pulling into payroll by account number and corresponding payroll runs
Our payroll system is setup with separate payroll run's for restricted fund accounting purposes. However, substitute tracking is not setup that way. It would be extremely helpful if there was a way for substitute tracking to be pulled into a specific payroll run or by account numbers. Currently the district is having to pull all of the substitute transactions into the largest payroll run, then manually delete that do not belong in that payroll run out of the system, process the payroll. Once that payroll run is complete, then the district has to manually re enter the deleted substitute transactions…

1099 Type in SBAA
Why is there only one option for 1099 type in SBAA: 1099NEC
The drop down, as you can see from the attached, is only a blank space.
We have several vendors that are not NEC types that our schools use.
See attached.2 votesThank you for bringing this oversight to our attention. Our State and Federal Compliance Department has been notified and we will begin updating SBAA to include 1099M soon.

Florida Statute - Time Off Sick Leave Certification
We have a FL statutory requirement that says all sick leave (either sick or personal) must be submitted and accompanied by a statement stating that the employee certifies they are sick or are using a personal day. We are currently satisfying this requirement via a paper form that is printed, signed, scanned, and attached to the submitted sick time off request - not ideal. I would like to request Skyward add an "I certify..." checkbox for sick/personal time off requests. The Statute is §1012.61(2)(B), FLORIDA STATUTES and states: "Any district school board employee shall, before claiming and receiving compensation for…
2 votesOur Florida State experts have researched this request. Per the Florida’s statue, a written document is required. We have created a written best practices document and Skyward’s recommended solution to this statue. Please see the attached document titled: “Certified sick and personal best practice.”

Life Long Counter - Sub Tracking
Our district would like to offer an incentive every 45 days a sub works. This does not have to be consecutive. I can set this is up using the Life Long Counter section in Rate Tables, however, it only allows me so many "lines" to create the structure. As of now, I can only go up to 135 days. We've run reports from previous years and we've had subs that have worked up to 171 days in a school year. That being said, if we had just two more "lines" in the Life Long Counter, I could get this set…
2 votesThank you for submitting this idea. We need your feedback!
The Rate Table is structured to put in the “Last Unit at Rate”, so you’ll just see the high number in Skyward.
Example (visual also attached):
0-44 $100
45 BONUS RATE
46-89 $125
90 BONUS RATE
91-134 $150
135 BONUS RATE
136-179 $175In the above example, you can see that I got to 179 days of subbing.
Does this work or is there additional set up not mentioned in the Product Idea that would need to be taken into consideration?
Thank you!

Email Teachers option
Hi,
Under the Email Teachers tab, could 'all' be added under the bcc menu?2 votes -
Add additional colums to the view.
In using the Status Code view when looking at applications, the system will only allow you to view 10 columns. In addition, it will only allow you to dump into Excel 10 columns. Several of our applications have as many as 16 status codes assigned. We need either to see it in the view or at least be able to dump it to see the overall picture of the workflow processes on a grand scale.

This idea will remain open for continued voting and comments from the Skyward user community.

Add a date range selection to the Credit Card Transaction Board Report
The format of the Credit Card Transaction Board Report is a much cleaner report to give to our Board, but I am not able to pull the report for just the transactions that need approval at the monthly board meeting. There needs to be a date range selection, import date range selection, or batch number selection.

Add lockout warning to log in page
Add a warning to the login page so employees know they will be locked out after 3 failed attempts. I get multiple requests to unlock accounts each day, because people don't know they will be locked out. They just keep trying over and over again. It would be nice if they were instructed to click the Forgot Password link.

Snapshot of what a fund looked like based upon a specific date
Our SBOA auditors have been asking us for a "snapshot" of our Federal Funds based upon a specific date of their choosing. This currently isn't possible because everything is like a living document in Skyward. So if we need to reproduce a data mining report from a prior date (say 8-31-19 for example) to verify something such as our reimbursement request for August expenditures will never be correct or the same as it was from 8-31-19 due to activity throughout the following months. We should be able to print the same report we did from a year ago and get…
2 votesThank you for submitting this idea. We need your feedback!
We’re looking for clarity on this idea: Is this idea requesting an update to the reporting capabilities or does it deal more with the fact that if you backdate something we don’t have a tracker field in Data Mining to indicate that the transaction was backdated?
Thank you for your feedback!
