  1. 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.

    Thank 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?


    This Idea will remain open for the Skyward user community to show support by voting and commenting on it with additional use cases.


    Thank you!

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. Edit Assignment in Position Control Maintenance

    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.

  5. 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.
