Our phone extensions are 6 digits but Skyward only allows 5 digits to be entered. Our Administration is quite adamant that we need this.
We need the phone extension field to be extended to 6 digits from the 5 digits it currently holds.

assignment import
On a daily basis we in HR have to export individual assignments due to the addition of a stipend, a degree enhancement, adjust the FTE, to correct an error, etc. Having the capability to export an individual assignment from the “Emp Mgt Asn” screen would be greatly beneficial as a time saver. Using the Assignment Export/Payroll Import works great for exporting large groups of assignments but requires a good deal of clicks and con be time consuming just to export one assignment. I do not know if this would be possible but if so it would be greatly appreciated if…

Emergency Contact
Having to enter an emergency contact for an employee into the skyward database is not necessary and time consuming. Could we just have a field for a name and number?

Occupant Address Change Buttons
Our users have said that the button choices on the Occupant Address Changes screen attached are not intuitive and have caused for changes to be made that should not be made. The question being asked is a yes/no question but the button choices are ok/cancel. Is there anyway to get the buttons changed to Yes to change and No to not change?

Need a way to see denied time off requests from Human Resources - Employee
When viewing time off transactions for an employee, you can see the approved time, but not the denied time. The only way to see this is to run a report. It would be nice to have an option to see the denied time off, even if it's included as a filter on the Unapproved tab.

Fix for Certification Import Utility - Texas
Is there a plan to fix the Certification Import Utility for Texas? If not, we would like a feature that allows us to keep any records that have the Scope Description of "Manually Entered". We are having to do a lot of tedious, manual edits to our file to prevent the data loss of these records. It would speed up our process and ensure the data is cleaner if we had the option to ignore manually entered certifications during imports.

Allocated Leave Column
Under Human Resources > Employee Profile > Time Off > Setup the allocation column shows the number of hours allocated the entire time that that employee has been in Skyward. It would be AWESOME if we could adjust this to be the beginning of the fiscal year.

Ability to place term dates/reasons in Mass Deactivate Option
Since the mass deactivate option was released, it allows a user to mass remove resigning employees from security groups. I'd like to see this have some more options. I'd also like to have the ability to add term dates and term reasons via the mass deactivate feature. This would be of a tremendous help when teachers all have a last day of 8/31, with the reason "resigned." It would allow us to save time as we would not have to touch every employee that has resigned. We could mass deactivate them in Employee Profile.

Skyward Profile Notes
We've encountered an issue with profile notes (WH\EP\TB\NO). When an HR staff member adds a note to an employee profile, only they can edit the note. If the staff member who entered the note separates from the district, no one can update the note.
6 votesThank you for submitting the product idea!
I ran a test of this on an employee profile - I entered in notes as the original creator, and then super used in as another user, and was able to modify the notes as the second user.
Could I have you verify that they have the proper security to the notes section? (At least level 3 access for editing?)
Thank you!

Add a Filter and/or Quick Filter option to the Pseudo Approval area
Please add the option to create Filters and/or Quick Filters on the Employee Pseudo Approval screen. We sometimes need to search for information among the "completed" records and the only viable option is to drop it to Excel and then search. It would save time and improve efficiencies to have a typical Filter option available. The current Filter Option button just toggles between hiding the completed or waiting for approval records. It doesn't help locate groups of records on this table view.

Combine Employee Contact Information
Format employee data so that address and phone/email can be viewed on one "contact information" page. Clicking from one area to the other to get this information is very cumbersome.
3 votesThank you for submitting the product idea!
On the Employee Profile screen, towards the top of the screen there is a customize button - with this you can choose to have specific employee information pinned onto the screen for easier viewing of the data you wish to see.
I have included an attachment of the button on Employee Profile with the options available to you.
I hope this helps and is an alternative you can use!

Years of Experience
We would like to make the years of service automatically update when a person hits their anniversary date. Example: Katie's first day is 7/1/22 we want the system to automatically update me to 1 year on 7/1/23. Or if my first day is 12/15/22 on 12/15/23 we want the system to automatically roll me to 1 year of service. This way we do not have to do the years of service roll every year.

'Unselect All' is needed in Clone/Replace Securities utility
When cloning/replacing securities, an 'Unselect All' option is needed in the Budgetary Data Mining area. The default is to have every BDM report selected. Some employees have hundreds of BDM reports, and each one has to be unselected if they aren't wanted to be cloned.

browse, report or data mine the "earned bilingual-bicultural education (1023) supplement" check box
Currently there is no way to see who has the "earned bilingual-bicultural education (1023) supplement" check box marked in the certification tab in employee profile. It would be helpful to be able to see this in either the employee browse screen or be able to pull it in a data mine

We currently have PR 3305424 to address this field being added to Data Mining - we will update this product idea as it progresses.

Human Resource
Can there be an additional area added to the Pseudo Approval area for confirmation of the change request where the individual approving or denying the request is reminded to contact the employee before the change is to be completed. With the hackers getting more aggressive and people doing thing more things electronically, it would be just one step in ensuring the employee information still remains safe.
I would imagine the area simply being "Did you contact the employee? Yes or No." If No, then the request cannot be completed until the employee is contacted. If Yes, then the request can…
