  1. Flag Employee Profile.

    Some of our employees leave and come back or have loans that we need to check on the status of before processing their final payment. It would be helpful if we could add a flag or popup message to employee profile that will be triggered if we inactivate the employee or simply highlight the name of the employee so we know to look deeper into a profile if needed.

  3. Allow Change of Font in Check Printing in SBAA

    Our bank has recommended a change in font on our checks in order to avoid exceptions (due to the check being misread) when the check clears the bank. Would Skyward ever consider giving District's the ability to change font size and type?

    Add the capability to view the date an application was moved with the most recent notes in a column in the open apps view instead of having to hover. This will allow us to excel the data out and view the information at a glance.

  7. Payroll - Direct Deposit Entry

    When staff enter in Routing Numbers and Banking information - This should ONLY be a numbers field and the system should error out if there is letters typed within this field.

    Our bank will not accept bank accounts with letters listed within the account string.... Not sure if other Banks allow letters within their account string...?

  8. Datamine in FastTrack - include the notes section in options to select to include with the status code when pulling data.

    When data mining in FastTrack, we would like to have the option to include the status code notes when pulling our report. Currently you can hover over or open each app individually which is very time consuming. Add the option to select when setting up the data mine parameters.

  9. Inventory Receiving Approval Chain

    Have an approval chain for inventory items received to verify PO Units to Receive, PO Received Unit Cost, PO Received Total Cost agrees with Stock Received Units, Stock Received Unit Cost and Stock Total Cost and that the Stock Units per PO Unit Received are correct so there are no large quantities received in the hundreds, or thousands that are not correct and result in large cost to district by having to account for large amount of dollars not in inventory and/or having to write off.

  10. Add Employee Access > Personal Information > Calendar widget

    Add a widget for Employee Access > Personal Information > Calendar. This calendar if unique to the Employee. The widget should jump to the Personal Calendar for the employee when Calendar Options can be set. But the widget should then display for the 'current day' any entries the Employee has defined, such as My Employee's Time Off, as well as their Assignment Calendar information

  11. True Time Edits

    Currently True Time has widgets for Timesheets Waiting My Approval and Time Off Waiting My Approval. Could you add a widget for True Time Edits or Timesheets Edits Waiting My Approval. Employees can add an Edit Note, but Approvers have to go and find the requests rather than being notified. We would like an email notification to go to Approver when an Edit is requested and then also a widget so they can see Edit requests on their Home Page.

    Thank you for submitting the product idea!


    1. Just for clarification, whenever a user makes an edit to a timesheet note, you would want the approvers to get an email notification?

    a. With this, would this only be if they edited after submission of the timesheet?


    2. The 2nd portion you are looking for a similar widget to the time off approvals widget?


    Thank you for your additional input, the idea will remain open for continued voting by the Skyward community.

  12. Remove Batch lock feature

    What is the purpose of the "Batch lock"? Several of the secretaries gets block and I have to unblock them before I can update PO's. It's such a waste of time.

    Why is there not a clone option on the certifcation tab under human resources-almost every screen has a clone option, but this doesn't. It would be nice to just clone their previous certs and add endorsemets or just update the new expiration dates.

  16. I'd like the Expense Reimbursement Org Chart to show in Employee Profile>Org Cart.

    Right now the only org chart that shows on the employee profile is the time off org chart. We don't use time off in Skyward. It would be more helpful for us if there was a choice on which org charts show on the profile.

  19. True Time

    I have input a Skyward ticket to see if setting the order of pay codes in the employee's True Time clock view was possible and was told there was not a way to do this and to submit as an idea.

    I want to be able to have pay codes listed in a specific order within the True Time time clock view. For some employees with multiple codes, it would decrease errors if we could list the codes in a way that makes sense. I am not a big believer in multiple codes, it increases the risk of error and…
