Payroll Variance Report
In the "Post-Verification" section of payroll there should be a report that shows variances. For example it should compare the gross or net between the last payroll and the current payroll.
Each employee should be on their own line and you should be able to choose what you see on the report so you can choose to look at: net, gross, specific deductions, or specific benefits. Would help pin-point errors quickly without having to print 2 reports and having to manually compare the reports.

Fix Tab Order
It would be helpful to have the tabs hit both the account Amount and the Account Percentage field while in the AP invoice entry screen. Currently it will tab correctly on the first line and then it will skip to the Account Percent for following lines, which the Account Amount is the more used filed. See attached

Life Long Counter - Sub Tracking
Our district would like to offer an incentive every 45 days a sub works. This does not have to be consecutive. I can set this is up using the Life Long Counter section in Rate Tables, however, it only allows me so many "lines" to create the structure. As of now, I can only go up to 135 days. We've run reports from previous years and we've had subs that have worked up to 171 days in a school year. That being said, if we had just two more "lines" in the Life Long Counter, I could get this set…

The Rate Table is structured to put in the “Last Unit at Rate”, so you’ll just see the high number in Skyward.
Example (visual also attached):
0-44 $100
45 BONUS RATE
46-89 $125
90 BONUS RATE
91-134 $150
135 BONUS RATE
136-179 $175In the above example, you can see that I got to 179 days of subbing.
Does this work or is there additional set up not mentioned in the Product Idea that would need to be taken into consideration?
Thank you!

Clear "Imported to Worksheet on Date" when transaction deleted from worksheet
When a transaction detail record is imported into a worksheet and then deleted would it be possible to clear the "Imported to Worksheet on Date" fields. The only solution at this point is to delete the whole transaction record and create a new one.
We are trying work on automating our processes but we are running into issues when there are more docks then how much the pay is for. If an employee has $3000 gross but needs $4000 in Docks then we carry that forward to the next month. How it works now is we have to delete the…

Design a report that will include approved absences and unapproved absences.
I have worked with the Skyward team on scheduling a staff absence report. It ends up that I have to run two separate reports. Is there a way to make this one report?

Pop Up Message for True Time
It would be great if you could create a pop up message option for True Time Quick Entry. A lot of our employees do not open the Employee Access screen often and this would be a great way to get needed messages to them.
14 votesThank you for submitting this idea.
The pop up message option for True Time Quick Entry would be for a district to customize a message? Do you have an example of how you would use this pop up message?
Thank you!

List detailed instructions on how to use the Texas Department of Public Safety fields
Skyward has the platform under Texas State Reporting to manage the Texas Department of Public Safety. The only thing is, I can not find instructions on how to use this platform.
1 voteThank you for submitting this idea.
I’ve attached the DPS Processing Manual recently created by our State and Federal Reporting Department to this response. It will be published in SkyDoc by the end of the week.
In the future, this type of request should be submitted via a Service Call.
The Product Ideas Portal is a platform to submit ideas to enhance the Software Product rather than documentation.

Make Contract Amounts update Correctly
When you are trying to update a Contract Amount on someone's profile under the Contract tab, it will update the Contract Amount, but not the Per Diem Amount. It should update both fields and give you the option to over ride the Per Diem Amounts. That should be fairly rare that you would need them to be different amounts.

Add Account Number as a field on Vendor Profile
Add "Account number" as a field on Vendor Profile. Ideally this field would print on the checks so that vendors could use this information to identify which account to apply the payment to.

Account Adjustment by Specific Dollar Amounts
Payroll account adjustments are currently only able to use percentages. It would be extremely helpful if we were able to also do the accounting adjustments by specific dollar amounts. This would help for situations where you are trying to move part to a grant. Some grants need it down to the exact penny and that can be hard to achieve using percentages.

Org Chart Update Utility
For districts that have multiple org charts used for different purposes, it would be great if there was a utility that could be used to select the org chart(s) and then add, remove, or move an employee on all selected org charts. It is time consuming (and error prone) to have to edit each org chart and take action on the employee one org chart at a time.

Fillable PDF
It would be advantageous to have a way when using online/custom forms to be able to have the employee complete a fillable PDF, save it automatically into their profile. They can only answer the questions on the designated form and we wouldn't need to worry about them attaching a document to their profile that wasn't intended. Currently Skyward allows you to send a fillable PDF to the employee but there is no way for them to save it other than to their device and then uploading it into their employee profile. This could be a nightmare with all the documents…

Pulling Active only positions in DM
Need the system to read behind the scenes if a person has terminated out of one job and started another in order for the one position the employee is currently active in is the only position that pulls through on a DM report. EXAMPLE: Employee started the year as custodian at Buck Lake Elem and terminated that assignment on 10/5/2020 and started a new position as a Building Maintenance Supervisor on 10/6/2020 through the end of the fiscal year. The only position that should pull through on a DM report of any kind is the Building Maintenance Supervisor position.

vendor browse
When you select a vendor to view in PAC that is inactive, It automatically takes you to the web. Apparently it is because you cannot inactivate a vendor in PAC, so if you are wanting to make any changes to the vendor profile (like reactivating) it has be be done in web. If I am trying to view it, I should be able to see it in PAC. I can understand if I hit the edit button that it would go to the web, but I am only selecting the vendor in the display screen. This is very time consuming.…

Screener Access
Have the ability to assign multiple screener groups to postings. Your group would be determined by your assignment/location. Part I - If you are an administrator you have xyz rights. If you are a secretary you have abc rights. Part II - then your access would only be to the site that your assignment is at.
We have the ability of filtering by pay type in the access view. So part of the resources is there. In addition, we would like to keep the ability to manually add and remove access as deemed by the district per individualWe also…

Add additional colums to the view.
In using the Status Code view when looking at applications, the system will only allow you to view 10 columns. In addition, it will only allow you to dump into Excel 10 columns. Several of our applications have as many as 16 status codes assigned. We need either to see it in the view or at least be able to dump it to see the overall picture of the workflow processes on a grand scale.

Allow leave balance in EA to be seen but no entering of leave requests
I would like employees to see how much Emergency Paid Sick Leave they have left, but NOT have access to enter that leave.
This might be useful for other types of leave too, i.e. only I can enter unpaid time off, but employees can not see that. Thank you!
3 votesThank you for submitting this idea! We suggest using options that exist in Time Off Setup Request Options.
Navigate to Product Setup > Employee Access > Time Off Setup > Request Options tab, then edit, then uncheck the box “Allow Time Off request in group 9”
Group 9 is a special code typically used for Time Off Requests like Emergency Sick Paid Leave.
If help is needed to set this up, please submit a Service Call and one of our Representatives will be able to assist.

Time off hours should match FTE import/Employee Management
It would be great if the time off hours would auto update to match each imports FTE instead of having to manually update for all of those who have changed each school year. Manually updating Insurance Tracker FTE as well as time off hours.
