Ability To Tie Specific Time Off Codes to Specific Pay Codes
We would like the ability to connect specific time off codes to specific pay codes. Time off populates into timesheets, and from the timesheet it flows into payroll. With past employers, sick/vacation/personal time taken showed up on employees pay stubs. This would also be helpful when someone received a different rate of pay for time off. This became most evident and problematic with COVID absences, but it would be helpful in VARIOUS ways that have nothing to do with COVID. EPSL at 2/3 pay may or may not return in the near future, but not having this REALLY caused major efficiency issues. This would also be helpful for any employer that administers and pays their own Disability pay when an employee is off work. This could also be helpful if or when FMLA becomes a paid. Having the paystub (and payroll ) match what actually happened and the actual pay rate associated with it is extremely valuable.

Hello! Thank you for submitting this idea. We are looking for more feedback – is your idea only relating to True Time?

We have an hourly employee that performs two different jobs, which are two different pay codes and rates per hour. It would be beneficial to be able to assign a different time off code to each pay code.

I'm not entirely sure. Currently, only our hourly employees use True Time, but this would be beneficial for anyone whether they're in True Time or not (if Skyward could make it work without True Time). When they submit their time off, it populates their timesheet with whatever form of time off they use. However, when the timesheets are brought into payroll, the information is "lost" in that it only records their time as "Hourly". It doesn't specify whether sick, personal, or vacation time was used. Only the time from those codes flows into payroll, assigning it all to the same pay code.
It would be nice if Vacation flowed into payroll as Vacation, Sick as Sick, Personal as Personal. This way we could assign a specific time off code to a specific pay code. In the event 2/3 EPSL pay is ever mandated, we could assign and link a 2/3 pay code to the specific 2/3 pay time off code.
This would allow documentation on pay stubs of all sick, vacation, personal time paid to each employee each pay period.
This would remove any and all manual work once all employees have those time off and pay codes assigned.
Additionally, it would also be helpful if there was a utility that would allow us to mass assign a % of pay to a new pay code, based on the rate assigned on another pay code. (Again, helpful for the 2/3 pay situation we had last year.)
