TRS Base Gross totals tie out to Check Register
When working on the per pay period Gemini report to submit to TRS (Illinois)
I click the Summary Report and checked it against the check register's Base Gross under the Retirement deductions.I'm usually off by the non-contributory earnings and the retiree earnings. These two types of pay are included in the earnings totals in the TRS Gemini Summary Report.
I think the non-contributory earnings and retiree earnings should be listed separately!
This would be helpful because we can then tie it back to the check register Base Gross!!!Currently there no way I can modify the TRS Gemini Summary…

Please create a utility to purge old KIDS export records (Kansas State Reporting). KIDS is Kansas specific, but all states have reporting.
Please create a utility to purge old KIDS export records (Kansas State Reporting). KIDS is Kansas specific, but all states have reporting and could benefit from this utility. Currently the only way to delete the old export records is one by one.

Teacher Incentive Allotment Designation (TEXAS)
Would it be possible to include a field for the Employee Profile who qualifies for the Teacher Incentive Allotment Designation that includes all 3 indicators (i.e. Recognized, Exemplary and Master)? Additionally START and END date fields for the same TIA designation.
Right now there's only a field that has codes (01, 02, 03 and 04), but no way to find out what designation the teacher could have.

Skyward Conservation Reports
Skyward Conservation Reports that are used to track data for the Illinois Department of Public Health, request;
Skyward’s Conservation Reports do not accurately populate. To make them accurate, I am requesting that the Observation List (under referral information) for both vision and hearing, be changed to allow multiple selections. Currently the Observation drop down will only allow only one category to be selected.
For example, if a student has multiple results (i.e. Myopia and Astigmatism) we can only select one option. This does not provide the information needed to run the report accurately, that is submitted to the state. If…

1099-NEC SHOULD BE STATE SPECIFIC
I have two ideas.. one is PA specific.. When processing the 1099 and creating the files for uploading.. for PA you need to check the box in the area where it says DON'T CHECK THIS BOX UNLESS TOLD TO DO SO.. well I spent a DAY not realizing that for PA upload this box MUST BE CHECKED.. screen should indicate clearIy which states need to have this box checked and 2) I happen to only have 1099s for PA and occasionally NJ, but that is another issue to look at: I bet other SKYWARD users also

add-on reporting
Add-on codes need to use the state code defined to report Florida additional compensation information. If you don't use the pay-code of the assignment the hourly rate calculation is inaccurate which means the additional paycode tab is of no value because of the wrong rate. Another option if different paycode values must be maintained is to have a check-box that says these codes should be included in the calculation of hourly rate when transferring to the additional paycodes. If this option is used, it needs to also follow the additional pay code screen and allow a box to mark so…

TRS Reports
We need a report that we can run to tell us how many days & hours have been reported for any employee(s) per month or school year to TRS. TRS has identified some of our employees that had no days or hours reported for several months. I don't have a way to run a report to check on all employees. These hours are reported on RP20 & RP25 reports in different months. The days/hours are not in one single place.
This is a new problem, but one that I have always been concerned about with that first year since the…3 votesThank you for submitting and voting on this idea. Our State and Federal Compliance Department is researching this request.

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.

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.
1 voteThank you for submitting this idea.
We suggest you try this instead:
There is report within the Form 9 process to “Report Account without Crosswalks”
Navigate to Financial Management > Account Management > State Processing > Crosswalk Accounts > Report Accounts without Crosswalks.

PR1500
There seems to be a glitch in the new Texas reporting PR1500. The Bilingual/ESL/Special Education field is a required field. The system will not allow you to proceed without choosing one or the other.
2 votesAfter the 6/1 submission in a couple weeks, the PR1500 will no longer be a thing. The state is merging the collection of that sort of data right in with PEIMS Sub 1, so there’ll be no need for having anything related to PR1500 in the software.

PSERS Demographic Address Reporting
For the PSERS reporting--- when entering an employee into the system you add in their home address information. The address then auto-fills into the retirement- demograph tab but in address 1 but then require manual entry to Address 3. According to a service call with Skyward, this is the only option as it has to be in address 3 for the PSERs reporting. It would be helpful if Skyward could reroute from Address 1 to Address 3 automatically if that is where the information is required.
4 votesWhen you run the PSERS Member Demographic Record submission, the system takes the Address 1 in the profile and reports it in Address 3 in the maintain and the file. No manual edits need to be done in the Employee Profile to move the address to Address 3. The system takes care of that during processing for the Member Demographic submission.
If assistance is required, please submit a Service Call and our State Reporting Rep will be able to assist you.
Thank you!

ER 27 for Retirees based on calendar month not pay period
System is creating an ER27 adjusting the days and hours worked based on sub tracking (which is pay period) when retirees have to be reported by calendar month. We are submitting ER20's every month with the correct hours and days for the calendar month and the next month an ER 27 is adjusting it and it shouldn't be. We are deleting the ER27 prior to submitting them.

Changes made to the TRS Staff Salary New Extract
The extract has been changed to only include active employees. However To provide accurate reporting on TEA Staff Salary report. Inactive Profiles need to be added back to the extraction which include the last payroll and term dates. Also it would be better for the extraction to pull from pay history and not just active employees. I am going back checking some things with the new way of reporting it would be nice if the Skyward report had which month the data is extracted from when looking at multiple months. Having the terms and inactive profiles is helpful sometimes we…

ED40 Records
Since there have been issues with ED records in Skyward and on TRS Portal it would be nice to have a clone button to clone a record. For example this month I am having an issue with TRS portal that an ED40 records have not been submitted for August contracts. However I can see the ED40 record in Skyward and TRS. Other districts have just manually entered in the records because they did not have very many to get the system to process it. I am waiting to hear back from TRS since I have multiple employees I am getting…

Increase PA UC decimal places from 4 to 6 digits
Our district does the finances for a charter school that resides within our district. This charter school's PA Unemployment Compensation rate as directed by the PA Dept. of Labor is 0.036785.
Skyward currently only allows 4 decimal places so I'm only able to enter 0.0367 or 0.0368.If this isn't something that can be fixed in the current Skyward software please make sure to include it in Qmlativ.

It appears this already exists in SMS 2.0.

This would be VERY helpful when processing the TRS annual report. The outcome would be a quick way to check TRS wages when completing the annual report. It could be done by adding the ability to accumulate wages by a date range that would be manually entered. It is already accumulating by a predetermined date range.

Need ACA hours for docked day to equal hours workd
Need to have ACA hours for a docked day to equal daily hours worked in Employee Management. Currently the docked hours for ACA default to 8 and this is not correct in most cases.
Dock pay would automatically deduct the correct number of ACA hours when used.
Additional clarification from customer:We currently pull ACA hours from Employee Management. When processing a
payroll and an employee has dock pay it pulls up the hours associated with
the calendar for the employee. I would like the ACA hours to pull from the
hours per day on Employee Management. This way the…48 votesThank you for submitting this request and voting on it. We’ve had our experts run a few test at Skyward and we believe the system is working as intended as long as the set up is correct. Please review these steps & try this instead:
1) When running the Unpaid Time Off Import (Create Dock Pay) utility in Payroll Worksheets the ACA Hours are automatically created.
2) The hours are negative – to indicate taking ACA hours away from the total ACA hours for the payroll
3) The number of hours recorded is based on the Time Off Code Setup – Hours per Day
4) The ACA hours are written directly from the Unpaid Import. They are not derived from the ACA Import button in Payroll Select
