Default setting in Position Control Maintenance to not update assignments
We would like to see a default the setting when changing FTE in Position Control to be “Do NOT update any information on the Assignments”.
When changing # POS in Position Control (WH\AD\EM\PC) a screen appears with "assignment Processing Options".
We are wanting the system to default the setting to be “Do NOT update any information on the Assignments” so that there is less chance of making an errors to the current assignments.
17 votesThank you for submitting this Product Idea. We have reviewed it and would like to see more support from the Skyward user community.
There are a few questions which we would like a better understanding on with this product idea:
1. Would a user preferences area be helpful so the user can decide how they want the option defaulted on how to update assignments?
2. Are you only looking for when FTE is changed or when any area on the position control is changed?

Add a TRS step field on Salary Hourly Mass Change to be able to give different amounts to different years of experience
We are beginning to give raises based on years experience since HB3. We are giving teachers with 0-5 years experience one dollar amount and anyone 6-25 years experience a different amount. I am doing an export and import so I don't have to individually give every teacher a raise but it would be so much easier to just be able to filter this on the Salary/Hourly mass change and add the dollar amounts to the specific years of experience.

Please add ability to mass change position amount in Position Assignments Mass Change Utility.
We use an amount on our stipend positions because they are the same for everyone that gets that stipend. This year we raised the amounts for some stipends. I had to manually edit each position for each campus in order to update the amount on the position because on the position-mass change utility, there is no place to update the amount. I would like a field to be added to the position -mass change utility that will update the amount on positions selected.

Add contract override to employee management
In Florida for surveys you are required to have a matrix and have employees on the matrix, however if you give a raise that is not based on the matrix or performance pay you cannot possibly have a matrix that has 500 or more different amounts on it. We need to be able to place employees on a matrix, but then have a contract override amount that pays them with their raise amount.

Add a COMMENT field to Assignment
Add a 30 character free-form text field to EMS/SN > Assignment Maintenance > Assignment Detail .
This field would be used by HR to flag assignments changes throughout the year that are currently managed outside of Skyward.
Most HR departments keep a separate spreadsheet of the internal transfers that have happened during the year; whether the employee resigned, retired or transfer, included who may have replaced the employee.
Associated updates::
1. Assignment Browse should e updated to include the Comment field.
2. View: Staff Assignment> FILTERS should have COMMENT has a field that could be rearranged on a custom filter.…3 votes -

Security Restrictions for Employee management
Users with access to employee management have access to all employee information, even those that the user may have no responsibility for. This makes confidential employee information available to those who do not need it.
In our organization, it is critical that this type of information availability be limited. We could do so either by way of either building restrictions or PO/Requisition Groups.

Position Control Groups FTE
We would like to have an additional EM config option for the verification of FTE's available on Position Control Groups. Our current config is set up to verify new hire requests based on the Working FTE of the group, but the problem is the system looks at the Working FTE for the entire date range on the Position Control Record. This gives us fits for positions were there is overlap at some point during the year because it looks like there is an FTE available but if you try to enter a request it is blocked

Would like to see opportunity to edit one position's assignment in position control maintenance - rather than using the position assignment mass change. The edit button is there....but the assignment area is dimmed out.

Adding more space to assignment code field
We are needing additional space for assignment codes. As our district grows we create more specialized assignments that need to be readily identifiable from other assignments by name. (Ticket submitted 3697953) and was told this is not a field that we can set the length. Surely this is something that should be determined and set by a district. By making the field district set the district would be free to follow their own naming convention and be more specific as more specialized assignments are need to be created.

Force Period Pay Amount
Payroll is currently modifying pay records to use the amounts desired as the current frequency override only provides a way to get close. Additionally if the assignment record is every exported again the manual adjustment must be made again to maintain the desired period pay amount. Need a field on assignment - payroll information to allow the entry of a period pay amount which would then be exported to payroll. The field would follow the same rules of reset for the current pay frequency override at the beginning of the next fiscal year. Attached word document shows an example person…

User cannot edit a request in the approval process
Once a New Hire request is approved at a low level and there are more approvals needed. The submitter cannot edit the request. Would like it to work like finance requisitions where the submitter can Edit but it resets the approvals back to the beginning.
