Expense Reimbursement
One improvement we see is if Skyward would tie this in Time Off transaction(s) and let us choose an existing time off request as one of the steps so we aren't having to duplicate some of the info and attachments. Adding this step may help in the decision to use the process.

transfer purchase order to new
Bookkeepers sometimes change from one school/facility to another during the school year. A purchase order created by a bookkeeper in August, might be received by a new bookkeeper who now occupies that position in September. When the new bookkeeper receives the PO, the old bookkeeper gets the receiving email notification, which the old bookkeeper does not need. In HR there is the clone/replace utility. That utility needs an option to updated the "Entered by" field on purchase orders to the new bookkeeper. The only solution our districts have found is to use the Advanced DB Fix utility for what should…

Allow Change of Font in Check Printing in SBAA
Our bank has recommended a change in font on our checks in order to avoid exceptions (due to the check being misread) when the check clears the bank. Would Skyward ever consider giving District's the ability to change font size and type?

Requesting Time Off for a Specific Fiscal Year/From that Specific Year's Allocations
We would like to suggest that Time Off can be requested for a specified fiscal year. Example: current school year is 2022-2023 and the employee has a scheduled trip during the 2023-2024 (following) school year. We would like the employee to have the option to select the calendar year to submit their request from 'that fiscal year's time off allocations' (not the current year's allocations).

Time Off Options
Since I have to do the calculation manually I take the number of days worked divided by the total days available to work that month and multiply the number of leave hours to be awarded for sick leave.
IE 10 days worked/23 days available to be worked that month = .4347826086956522 / 11 sick hours leave available for accrual for an 8 hr employee = 4.78 or rounded to 4.75 Sick Leave Hours for that month.• I know that is a complex calculation as we have paras that only work 7.5 hrs and only earn 10 Sick Leave Hours.

Can you help me understand this idea better?
How often are you doing these manual calculations? Is there periods during the school year that you need to run these calculations more often than others?
Could you explain what would you expect the system to do differently to help with your calculations?

TImesheet Approvals
It would be helpful for timesheet approvers to be able to mass approve timesheets even if they are over or under the scheduled hours. It is time consuming to have to look at each time sheet if required to approve it.
1 voteThank you for submitting this idea.
It would be helpful for us to know what Timekeeping Rules you currently have set up at your district. There may be some adjustments you can make that would no longer require approvers to review each one that is over or under scheduled hours.
We suggest reviewing the options highlighted in the attached screenshot. If these options are set at your district it will prevent mass approval of timesheets.

True Time Exception Report
On the True Time Exception Report it would be helpful to have an option for employees who are not clocking in/out for lunch. We have quite a few number of employees who are doing this and we need to correct the issue with them.

Have you tried creating a Data Mining Report where the Total Hours worked are greater than a certain amount, but the lunch hour duration is less than a certain amount?
It could looks something like the attached example.

Under SBAA it would be nice to be able to print a group of check detail reports individually
Currently I can print a report under check request report. But it prints all of the checks in the range on one sheet. It would be SO HELPFUL if it gave us the option to print each check report separately rather than as a group

TRS ED45 able to enter Multiple records in the same month
TRS TX ED45 able to enter Multiple records in the same reporting month. For example is for subs that the ED45 records is created for each month. If an error is made and I need to delete multiple months I have to do an ED45 record for each month. Skyward only allows one ED45 record per month. I have to submit the record in the TRS portal. Then go into the ED45 change the information to the next month submit the record.
1 voteThank you for submitting this idea. How often do you find you need to make multiple adjustments in a single month?
It has been passed on to our State and Federal Compliance Department to review.
This idea will remain open for the Skyward Community and other TX districts to show their support.

Requisition/Purchase Order comparison
We need a report to compare the prior year's purchase order totals by group to the current year's requisition totals by by group. For example, you can see that 1st grade spent $1,200 this year and then you can see that they have requisitioned $1,300 for next year. This would greatly help to be able to compare the information for reasonableness from year to year. It would be ideal for the information to be available to the approvers in the requisition approval screen. Attached are excel versions of a report that I created
1 voteThank you for submitting this idea and the example files.
Have you tried using the requisition/PO listing report? This report can sequence by group and run by Fiscal Year to review comparisons.
Thank you.

Adding a Room field within Skyward Business
I think it would be great to have a room number field within Skyward Business. Our IAM system syncs with Skyward and it would be great to pull the room number from one central source and push out all of this to our other downstream systems.
1 voteHave you tried creating a Custom Form with a new Field for Room Number? You could use Skycoder from Human Resources to attach the Custom Form to Screens and collect the Room Number.

Expand Pay Record Import to include Benefits/Deductions for Existing Pay plus Funding Allocation for the New Assignment
Within Human Resources > Payroll > Assignment Export/Payroll Import (WH\PA\AE), On the export/import screen there are 2 options for importing pay records. There is an issue when exporting/importing multiple assignments with the same pay code during the same fiscal year. The first option imports the correct funding but drops most of the benefits and deductions. The second option imports the benefits and deductions assigned to the existing pay records, but prorates the funding allocations from both assignments and creates split funding. I would like to request a combination of the two:
Import the benefits and deductions assigned to the existing…

pseudo approval
When looking at historical pseudo approvals , we would be nice to know if the employee requested for a set amount or a percentage. We can see that they requested a deduction amount but we can't confirm if they wanted a set amount or a percentage withheld. (checking to see if we set it up correctly) Just a letter like "P" for percentage next to the word deduction - would be helpful.

Could you attach a screenshot of the area you are referring to in your product idea? There are several areas that fall under "pseudo approvals" and we want to make sure we fully understand your request.

Add School Year to Requests Waiting for Approval View
I would like to request that a column be added to the Requests Waiting for Approval screen to show the School Year that the approval is for. The data is available on the request, but users need to drill into the details currently in order to see it. Having it on the main view screen would allow our users to be more efficient.
