  2. Ability to print batch reports in Data Mining

    When I run batch reports in data mining, I used to be able to print all in order of report in the batch. Now I have to open each one individually and print one at a time. We used to print these all as one big batch in PAC, but during some upgrade we lost that functionality. Now in PAC or web, we have to open each one individually and then print.

  3. Remove the link to "Forgot your Login/Password?" link on rwetru09.html (True Time) login page.

    Would it be possible to have the ability to remove the link to "Forgot your Login/Password?" link on rwetru09.html (True Time) login page and keep the link on the regular Skyward login page? Since we are using Access Code Only for login to True Time, the forgot login is a bit confusing for some users.

  4. Password Hidden/Encrypted

    As normal security protocol, ALL passwords used anywhere in the system should be hidden as masked fields and stored as encrypted values in the database.

  5. Add Active Flag to All Codes

    As districts grow and change many times old codes are no longer relevant. From a system stand point, you really never should delete codes that have been used anywhere but leaving them in the system means they show up and can be selected by users even if the district decides they don't want to use the code any longer. I'd like to see on all codes in the system an Active checkbox. When the Active flag is unchecked then the code could no longer be selected from drop-downs in the system. This would prevent improper use of codes the district…

  6. Would like the option to drag and drop people around in the Org Charts.

  7. view assignment detail in PaC (again)

    We used to be able to go into the profile of an employee, on the position tab and view the assignment detail. It is no longer an option. With payroll being on the PaC side, it would be nice to still have the option to view the assignment information and not have to go into the web side to view. Doing payroll, I am very rarely in the web side.

  11. PO notes available under vendors

    When a note is added to a specific PO, the note does not show up on the vendor tab (under notes), but attachments do. Can the notes show up like attachments do?

  13. Expense Reimbursement Reports

    The Expense Reimbursement area currently doesn't have any reports. It would be nice if similar to Credit Cards we could run transaction reports by status such as Waiting for Approval. There currently is not a great way for District to play big brother and make sure everyone across the district is staying on top of their approvals.

  14. Accounting Adjustment- Pull all pay instead of strip by strip

    We would like to see the accounting adjustment process have an option to pull all pay and change the distribution. We currently have to pull each "wrong" accounting strip one by one and correct it. In the case of an employee paid by multiple projects who is also at multiple centers this can be very time consuming.

  15. Option for set amount during payroll accounting adjustment

    We would like the option to select a set amount during a payroll accounting adjustment instead of percentage only. The system could calculate the percentage in the background and move the associated benefits that way. It would be much quicker. We have tried calculating the percentage, but it never seems to be the correct amount so it takes multiple trial-and-errors to get the correct amount to adjust.

  16. 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.

  17. Create a report to comply with new MN Wage Theft Law, new form

    Create a report to comply with new MN Wage Theft Law, new form.
    New employee form requires notice to employee of wage change or any change to pay. We can do this individually for new hires but for mass changes due to contract changes it would be helpful to have a utility to create a form from skyward to send to the employee.

  19. Button to Clone Assigment as Vacancy

    It would be so nice if there was an option to clone an assignment as a vacancy in Salary Negotiations. If an employee left, instead of deleting their old assignment and creating a vacancy, you would just have to clone the assignment of the person leaving. You are able to clone a vacancy to create a new assignment. It would be so helpful to be able to do it vice versa too.

  20. Allow _Vacancy to be included in Data Mining Reports

    There is currently not a method to report ALL Positions & Assignments including Vacancies utilizing Data Mining.

    Assignments is a good tool but it only includes 2 Account Codes (we have many positions with 3-6 account codes) so this is not an adequate tool when reporting, managing data with account codes.

    This should be an "easy" fix since several "canned" reports have an option to "Include Vacant Assignments."

    Thank you!
