  1. Save eCommerce Requisitions

    Give the ability to save eCommerce Requisitions once started. Sometimes you will be entering an eCommerce order and you will have 50 things that you want to get. Once you hit the submit button it will crash and you loose everything. It would also be nice if you could save it that you could come back and make any changes for example you decided you only need 5 boxes of pens instead of 10. If you had the ability to edit, it would take about 20 seconds instead of 20 minutes to fix.

  3. Salary Negotiations Plan Security

    We would like an additional layer of security/configuration added to the SN Plans. Need to allow users to continue maintaining under the Base Plan but not any of the Freeze Plans. This would help prevent users from accidentally updating the wrong plan both under Employee Profile and directly in Salary Negotiations.

  4. Add Individual Select

    In the substitute tracking under the Third Party Import cross references for Absent Amounts add the option to do individual selection.

    Situation: I have part time employees (custodians, aides, cooks) who are using TrueTime. This import brings in their time off, but is bringing in it wrong because the absent amount is cross referenced to their employee type. We use the same employee type (Custodians) for both part time and full time staff.

    What is wrong: because it does not have an individual selection it is going to force me to create multiple employee types that are unnecessary (part time…

  5. Add filter option in toolbar under Fast Track - Position Processing - Positions

    The option to create an Excel is in the toolbar. However, there are several columns that may not be used or would like to prioritize into the view. It does have a dump to excel option but to dump and organize it every time is time consuming where a filter can be created, saved and used multiple times. The toolbars should be consistent throughout Skyward.

  7. HR, Utilities, Mass Add Transactions

    It would be extremely helpful to be able to Mass Add Transactions by a date range not just one day at a time for groups of employees. If you would please add this it would save us a lot of time entering time off allocations and used time off.

  8. utility to clone rights from PAC over to web version

    With both web and PAC being available in our district, I would love to be able to start moving our users off of PAC. however some of their rights in web are not as fleshed out as they could be. Now, especially, with everyone working from home, we've found the appeal of web, with it being much more easily deployed for off-site users. I would really like to see a utility that could clone a users PAC rights, INTO their web rights, ensuring they could accomplish everything in the new version they could in the old.

  9. Mass Inactivate Vendors in SBAA (Same utility as Order From vendor)

    Mass Inactivate Vendors in SBAA (Same utility as Order From vendor). We need a way to mass inactivate old SBAA vendors instead of one by one by entity. Larger Districts have tens of thousands of vendors that would require each vendor to be made inactive, a mass utility that would inactive all vendors in SBAA across all entities would be a large time savings process.

  16. Substitute Rate Table Types

    In Substitute Tracking, "Detailed Transactions" allow the ability to edit the "Sub Type". This is needed when a long term sub switches to a short term sub mid pay period. For example they could be a long term sub at $160 per day for one week and the second week sub in regular short term positions for $120 per day. Also in this same area allow editing of Retirement hours. Some of our subs are also employees and do need to have retirement hours recorded on them.

    We can add a supervisor to an assignment, but it doesn't appear we can run a data mine with that field available. It would be helpful to have all fields of an assignment used in reports.

  19. 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…
