  1. Cash Recipts - please add the Created by field in Reports under WIP

    Please add the capability to see who entered a WIP status cash receipt when you click on the reports. We are moving all of our locations from SBAA to Financial management and with no approval process in the cash receipts module, I need to verify the receipts and make budget revisions prior to posting the batch. The report tool is helpful however I have to manually write down which batch I want to select for in the report screen.

  2. We would like to see a link on the "Move to Profile" screen to show the "Reference Check".

    We have general postings that include multiple assignments to be viewed by all Principals. In looking at the Move to Profile screen it only shows the ex: Teacher label. With the link revealing the Reference Check, this will give us the ability to see what the Principal has actually assigned to the applicant on the general posting.

  3. PS\WF\AM\UT\AM (Account Merge): Add a way to do this via import.

    PS\WF\AM\UT\AM (Account Merge): Add a way to do this via import. We have an extra six digits so we can't use the mass merge option, but even if that weren't the case, this still seems like a good area to do an import.

  4. Budget Requisition - School year display

    When employees are entered budget requisitions, it would be so helpful if it was possible that limit their access to certain school years. This is possible when entering purchasing requisitions so it would only make sense to do this in budget requisitions. Staff get so confused. I know it is a training issue but sometimes, training is just not enough.

  5. Customized Subject Line and Body for awaiting approval emails

    Is there a way for the name of the employee submitting a transaction to show on Skyward email notifications?

    Currently, the only information received for "Credit Card transaction(s) awaiting approval" emails is the Date, Amount, and Where Used.

    Similarly, for "Check Request(s) awaiting approval" emails, would it be possible to include the username of the user who submitted the check request and/or the check request number ?

  6. Paid Special Request how it ties into the timesheet

    I would like to see it show up in a True Time timesheet, when someone has a request for Paid Special Request, that it show me WHAT option they chose tied to the PSR. Like it should say PSR, conference or PSR, PD hours. This is super confusing when trying to process timesheets. I would like it defined more within the timesheet itself.

  7. 2020 W4 box display on the PAC side without having to "edit" to see it.

    It would be nice to see the 2020 W4 box on the PAC side displayed without having to "edit". On the Web side you can see it clearly without editing. They should be the same.

  11. Internet Explorer Vs Chrome

    With Internet Explorer not being supported for many applications. Please review why when running Skyward financial in Chrome no X is available to clear a field. I have included a sample of what i am referring to.

  12. Credit card report based on date of final approval

    We would like to be able to run a credit card report based on the date that the transaction is fully approved, regardless of when the transaction, import or post date is. For instance, a report of all transactions that were fully approved during October, even if the transaction date is in September.

  13. Credit Card: Allow access to view "Quick Key" & "Account Description" on Review/Submit Transaction and Approve Transaction screen

    It would be very helpful to all the "Quick Key" & "Account Description" columns to be an option on the Review/Submit transactions and Approve Transactions screen. This would be very similar to the option given for "Account 2" in the approve transactions screen.

  14. Credit Card: Select All Approval button only selects the transactions being viewed

    We have filters set up for each cardholder on the approval screen. It would be helpful if the "Select All" button only allowed to select all the transactions the approver views on the screen.

  15. Add option to add charter school employees to all formats for State Reporting

    In the State reporting maintain area there is an option to Add Charter Demographic Info but not to any of the other formats. It would be so helpful to be able to add charter school staff in all of the formats and be able to clone them year to year with the ability to edit and update fields. I find it hard at the moment to only add charter staff demographic information if we have to manually create files for all the other formats since they are not on our payroll.

  16. Crosswalks for Form 9 for Indiana

    It would be helpful if we could view only accounts without crosswalks when we are working on the Indiana Form 9. It takes such a long time to go through every account in PaC and each year the list gets bigger and bigger. If inactive accounts didn't show up (unless there was activity within a 6 month period), that would lessen the amount of accounts we have to go through each time.

  18. Cash Receipts Need to Show Bank Code

  19. Don't allow payroll to be posted to a prior date

    Currently payroll can post anything (PR, Corrections, Quick Voids, Etc.) to ANY date. Even if it is in a prior 6 month period. This really messes up our IN Form 9, our reimbursement requests, etc.. Instead of allowing them to just proceed through with a small warning, we should be able to set up an override by an administrator only if they want to post anything to a prior date.
