Taxable Life Insurance Warning
There should be a warning that pops up on your first payroll in December (or even all payrolls in December) that reminds you to include the taxable benefit for group life insurance over $50K. This is a very common error that could be mostly avoided if there was a small pop-up that just reminded you to do it. For those that do it each payroll it would be a small annoyance, but for the people that do it once a year it could save a tone of time. Both for the employer and Skyward support during a very busy time…

Pre-populate pay period/payroll dates
When doing the payroll processing, you need to enter the payroll date, posting date, pay period, etc all manually. These dates could easily be automatically filled in. the way I would suggest to do this is to use the "Run Numbers" that are currently in the payroll system and just add some additional settings that would like you select the frequency (weekly, biweekly, monthly, etc). Based on the frequency selected and a calendar the system could determine what the dates would be. This would help everyone that does payroll to be more efficient and less likely to have a typing…

Add a "Select All" option to the Invoice Approval screen.
I sometimes have to approve 50+ invoices, and it's very time consuming to click each and every box.

Changing Employee Schedules
In the employee profile, under the TrueTime tab, in Workweek Schedule. It would be helpful if when you made a change to the schedule it would ask you if you would like to make that change for just that week or if you would like it changed going forward. In my District I need to make changes to one specific week to get the Time off to import correctly. Currently to be able to do that I have to change the week I want and then go to the next week and change it back to the original schedule.

Could you explain the process behind why you need to change the weeks to get the Time Off to import correctly?
How often are you making changes to the schedule?
Thank you!

Requisition detail per-line discount
Currently, there is no way to add a discount percentage for a detail line. I have a quote from a vendor that shows a percentage discount per line, but there is no way to input that in the line item, the column "% Disc" just shows '0'. Per Skyward support, I have to manually figure the discount myself and add an additional line to subtract.
4 votesThank you for submitting this idea. We need more information to fully understand this request.
In SMS 2.0 you are able to add a flat discount for a Vendor which gets applied to all line items for that vendor. The result of that discount is what you would see on the Requisition screen in the %Discount column and should be applied automatically.
This is the first time we’ve heard of Vendors providing separate discounts depending on the item purchased. We would need to understand this use case more thoroughly and have more support from the Skyward user community prior to considering it for development.

ALL SKYWARD PRESET REPORTS SHOULD INCLUDE THE EMPLOYEE ID/NAMEID
Every preset report should automatically include either the employee ID or NameKey (as long as they are consistent). Some reports have the name key. Some reports are LFM, some are Last Name, First, Middle in separate columns with no employee ID. I will use the Time Off Tracker as an example. It defaults with all three names in separate columns. I find myself constantly pulling a data mining reports and running VLOOKUP to add an employee ID or employee type to a report. How about some consistency? If they all had Name ID we all would have to manually manipulate…
4 votesThank you for submitting this Product Idea.
The SMS 2.0 strategy behind canned reports was that each report was built with input from customers on what they wanted and needed at that time. The benefit to that strategy was that each report was designed in such a way that is was unique to that area.
As times have changed it has come at the cost of consistency across the system. This strategy was something Skyward shifted with our Qmlativ product where we have one stop shop for Report Management with a Report Designer and a Data Mining Designer.
Do you have specific reports that you’d like updated with a NameKey option in the parameters?
Thank you.

Fixed Asset Reporting
Please also add the Format tab like you have in Human Resources with the option to "Print all Information on one line per item" This would save a lot of time on the manipulation of the Current Value report. Please also add the ability to send all Fixed asset reports and Data Mining directly to Excel

Vendor Payments Report > 1099 by SSN/EIN
Allow us to sort the report in alphabetical order to match the 1099 report for more efficient double checking. Also, bold out the individual total amount lines for easier viewing. I understand we can send it to Excel, but it is harder to print everything we want to see on one page which means we need to format the report and when we do this the individual line item for invoice totals do not show up. Just make the original report user friendly in an efficient manner.

SBAA Check Reconciliation
We upload our SBAA checks into our banks Positive Pay system. One problem is the vendor name for individuals is not the same as the payee name. We have to manually convert the names as shown on the check.
Could Skyward add an additional column in SBAA check reconciliation to show the "Payee Name"? The Payee Name column is in the check reconciliation for AP and Payroll checks.4 votesThank you for submitting this idea.

Requisition Notification Option for Selected Individiuals
I would like the ability to select certain purchase order/requisition groups to be set-up to receive notifications of when there are approvals waiting for them. This capability would be much better as an individual option instead of a district-wide option.

vendor account number information efficiency
Most businesses use account numbers and invoice numbers 99% of the time when working with their clients. If we are taking the time to enter an account number for our vendors into the 1099 Form Section the checkmark should auto populate on the Print Account Number on A/P Check Stub and PO. This should be the same for A/P Contact information.

Please see example.

Employee Access: Staff to View One Page Calendar (PDF)
We have over 70 employee assignment calendars in our district. Staff can activate their assignment calendar from the Calendar area and view it month by month but what we would find extremely helpful is the ability for staff to view the one page PDF view of their calendar. Perhaps it could be added as a link on the Set Calendar Display Options screen. Or, I could see this as an option under the Personnel tab or as a drill down feature when looking at their Assignment. After expanding the assignment, I can see the calendar name listed under Term Information.…

User Security Reports
Historical Change Audit and Group Change reports need an option to select changes that were only made by a specific person. When investigating what one person did you have to work thru hundreds of pages of user failed login and additional security changes that have no value to the inquiry.

Longer Org Chart list of supervisors
Our employees have multiple paycodes which are approved by multiple supervisors. We'd love to be able to see more than just a list of 3 supervisors when we look at an employees org chart tab, to ensure we have them set up properly

For clarification, are you referring to the org chart itself or within Employee Profile tabs?
