  2. Processing List when Printing Indiana Statements

    When printing Indiana Statements it would be quite helpful to be able to use a Processing List instead of manually entering over 700 customer IDs.

  3. Home Language Codes

    The Home Language Code is located in the student profile, the family tab, and the LEP tab, but these do not update each other so you have to remember to add/edit all three sections. It would be a lot more helpful if they would update in all 3 locations when one of them is updated, because it is hard to remember that there are 3 different places to add/edit it and the code should usually be the same in all 3 locations as well.

  4. Create a report of manually applied coursework

    The ability to run a report of manually applied coursework in the graduation requirements would be helpful. Our Principals are supposed to approve all manually applied coursework and would like to audit this coursework. Currently, they have to go to each individual student profile to audit if coursework has been manually applied.

  6. Split "Honor Entity Security For Grading" configuration into 2 separate configurations

    We'd like to have the "Honor Entity Security for Grading" configuration option split into 2 options. One would allow "forward viewing" of grades by entity (something we'd like to disable). The other option would allow "backward viewing" of grades by entity (something we'd like to continue to leave enabled).

  7. student indicators for pref pronouns and preferred name

    Teachers/office staff would like to have an indicator for preferred pronouns. With the coming for ed-fi and needing to record it on the identity tab it would be helpful to have that area listed under the student indicators. Right now I do use it under student categories but I don't want to enter the info in two places. While in the same area it would also help if the preferred name was include in the indicators. We are having a hard time keeping track of students preferred names with their legal names when comparing state reports and info from other…

  8. Open Attendance for Whole Class

    Teachers would like an "Overwrite All" button or for the "Overwrite" function to be eliminated from attendance taking so that they can simply open their Post Daily Attendance tab, open their class, take attendance, and save it without the added step of overwriting each student individually.

  9. Mass Delete Pseudo Approval in Family Access

    We need to be able to delete prior year pseudo approvals for enrollment in Family Access. While the filter works to show only those waiting approval the system is bogged down with thousands of changes from past years.

  12. Attach PIMS State Course codes to COURSES not CURRICULUM

    If the PIMS State Course codes were attached to the courses instead of to the curriculum master, it would be possible to create career plans that jive with the ACT 158 Pathways.

  13. Add the ability to blank out all census block groups

    Currently census block groups can be imported via skybuild only via an attached student. I recommend adding the ability to blank out all census block groups for addresses. If all students leave a home, then the address record can only be modified by using address master. This feature is not very easy to use for large scale address maintenance. Since we have a change of block groups this year, we end up with 2010 and 2020 CBGs in address master. The 2010 are not associated with students currently, but may be associated as a snapshot address, or future students may…

  14. Additional Tab in Health Office Visit

    Our nurses would like an additional tab under the Health Office Visit area for Scheduled Procedures. This would be for them to log their catheterizations, tube feedings, O2 assessment, etc.

    We have an automated email set up to be generated when an absence request is submitted through FA. The message recipients for general staff is the main office AA's and the health room staff. They would like the notification to also generate an email to the student's homeroom teacher.

  16. Add a date range for the report: Print Forms

    Would be nice to be able to add a date range to the PRINT FORMS report.
    Our school does a new I-6 for each progress report. Would like to be able to print just the most recent instead of all of them.

  17. Include photo on medication administration screen

    I would like to suggest the feature of always displaying the student photo (not via a click or a hover, but always visible) on the window for medication administration. This would add another layer of certainty that the nurse is verifying that they have the correct student before administering any medication.

  20. Family Access Username Sync to NameKey

    Automatically update username for parents in family access when their name is changed and they are assigned a new namekey. This would help keep the namekey/username in sync.
