  1. Please make the font on reports easier to read

    I have had numerous requests from our users to change the font on budgetary data mining reports so that it is easier to read. The size doesn't seem to be the issue it just needs to be bolder.

    Thank you for submitting and voting on this idea. We’ve researching implementing this enhancement and have determined we will not pursue it at this time.

    There are several limitations to updating the font so that it is bolder. The biggest impact is that by making the font bolder it will shift the font and take up more room. Every report in the system would need to be reviewed and most likely updated as data would get pushed off the report rendering them unusable.

  2. Staff assignment screen - View Add on button

    1) When you view a staff assignment we need a View button on the Add-on screen that will open up the Add-on maintenance window. Currently there is no View button available. In order to view the information we have to go through Edit Staff Assignment and then Edit the Add-ons.

    2) On the Add-on screen the Amount we see is the Calculated/Add-on amount - a prorated amount based on Calculated FTE. When we make assignment changes we need to be able to see the actual add-on salary amount. If one were to inadvertently use this value on a new assignment…

  3. Need to manually enter Barcode and Proximity Value

    We should be able to manually enter Barcodes and Proximity values for our TrueTime users in Employees in TrueTime. Employees has their ID badges before employees are set up in TrueTime we need to manually enter these values verses hunting the employees down and then setting up their badges at readers.
    This will be a huge time-saver for our employees and those managers that set up the badges.

    Thank you for submitting this idea, voting on it and in some instances providing more feedback. We spent time researching this request and working with our Professional Services department for a viable solution.

    At this time, we are not considering it for development. This request requires some heavy technical enhancements that do not line up with our current road map.

    Thank you,

  5. Update PSERS reporting for Sabbatical leave

    Need Skyward to update PSERS state reporting correctly for Sabbatical leave.
    We were given a solution in SKYWARD to create correction contributions but not a way (except with a manual change in state reporting) to report the wages as described below.
    From PSERS Manual

    During the period of the leave the member must be paid 50% or more of their contracted salary. The

    employer reports the actual amount paid to the member as well as the unpaid portion (totaling 100% of

    contracted salary) each month. Members are considered to be in regular daily attendance during the

    period of the leave…

  6. This report sorting rules should be able to be mod

    This reports is setup to sort by social security number which is sometimes the way I like to see it but it would be helpful to also have the option to sort it by vendor name as well.

    Having different options on sorting will allow users to be more efficient.

  8. District needs widgets to be forced, not suggested

    Widgets need to be forced upon users not merely suggested. This functionality used to be in Skyward but was subsequently removed.

    Included in this use selection parameters to identify who to assign the widget to.

    Thank you for this idea request and participating in voting.

    We suggest using the “Force Widget Suggestions” This process will re-suggest the widget to all users that are currently not using the widget.

    While this option will not force widgets on users, there are technical difficulties that would delay this enhancement. We are taking this request into consideration and working on a Qmlativ solution. At this time we will no longer be considering this enhancement for SMS 2.0.

    Thank you!
