autoemail building registrar when NSOE is approved for their building
NSOE applications are approved by the Central office staff who then "forward" them on to the building registrars. Building registrars have no way of knowing that the NSOE approval has taken place or that it is being forwarded to them. It would be helpful if, upon approval, an auto email would generate letting the building registrar know that it has been approved and is available to them for completion.

Food Service Reporting and Proc Lists
It would be wonderful if there was a way to create a Processing List of Food Service Payors (either inactive or active - ability to choose). This would be helpful if you need to use this payor list in other areas of the software. Currently, I needed this list of Inactive payors with balances to find out when the family left the district. It doesn't work to use data mining as there are multiple siblings and multiple withdrawal dates, etc.

Automated Discipline Letters
The option to have automated Discipline Letters much like the Attendance Letters would be helpful for parents and schools. The idea is that the letters would automatically generate discipline offense letters when a student accumulates 5, 10, 15, and 20 offenses or any combination set by the district that could be mailed and printed as well as posted in Family Access.

+ attendance mark present only if in the correct place instead of anywhere
Positive Attendance is based on the Period, not the Class. So students can scan into any device they want for the day but the Positive Attendance Log is what you use to catch those students and discipline them appropriately
We would like a feature that only allows students to scan in and be marked present in the class they are schedule for.

Include TSDS number in Student Lookup
Include TSDS number in Student Lookup. The enrollment emails we receive from TSDS do not include the student's name. The only identifying information in the email is the TSDS number. It would be nice to look them up by TSDS number like we can the PEIMS ID.

"Password of the Day" for Fix Programs hurts productivity
Skyward has implemented a "password of the day" for whenever anyone needs to use the Fee Fix program. Each day we need to use it, we need to reach out to Skyward via a service call and wait for their response. This hinders productivity as the response can take several hours to arrive. It also places unnecessary workload and stress on the Skyward customer service representatives. Ideally, there should be a way to automatically distribute this password to specific users (ones with system-wide access, perhaps?) who can divulge it to their coworkers as needed.

Other Name
It would be helpful for the "Other Name" to pull into more areas. We want to keep the legal name visible for State testing/report cards etc, but the family and the student should be able to see the new name in both family and student access. At the very least, when an "Other Name" is entered, it should be visible in Family and Student access.

Add option to run Mass Change Lunch Codes by processing list
Would like the option to mass change lunch codes by processing list. (WS\ST\PS\UT\LC)
This would be very helpful for schools that are CEP/SSO and use a local socioeconomic form to determine economic disadvantage status. Processing list can be created from these forms to identify and code students that qualify as economic disadvantaged. These processing list could be used to mass change lunch codes.45 votes -
SpEd ACT Form to mimic the Forward Form layout (with the dropdown options)
This past year we worked with Skyward on the Forward Form to clean up the accommodations and designated supports to ONLY be able to choose options that apply to Wisconsin in the drop down. We put in a support ticket to see if we could do that same for the ACT Form. Skyward doesn't have any current plans to do so and advised that we submit an idea. Our Director / DAC, requested that we submit the idea in hopes they would change their mind and reconsider this option.

Add Button to View Application Letter at WS\ST\TB\FS\FS
Having the ability to click a button and view an individual student's food service application on the food service tab would be very helpful by saving precious time.

USE OF TEAMS IN REPORTS-ATTENDANCE
In Day Summary Report I need to print this out by Team but can only print it out by grade. If you can add the option to print by Team it would save me a lot of work. Right now I have to use a Processing List for each Team and we have 10 Teams. There are other reports that we can't use for Teams as well that if added would be great and save time and trouble.

Different color screen for New Year scheduling
I have almost made changes in the current year scheduling because I clicked in the wrong area. Could there be an option to change the color of the screen when working in new year scheduling? Thank you.

Entity Counts to not include students that don't really attend
It would be nice to have the entity counts exclude or show a breakout of students that are not really in attendance, such as students enrolled for services only. Thank you!

Ability to remove punctuation from names when creating usernames/emails
On the Automatically Generate Logins and Passwords screens (PS\CA\SE\PS\CF\AU) we need the ability to remove any punctuation and spaces from all name parts (first, last, middle, namekey). Currently we can remove spaces from namekeys but not from first, middle, last, and we can't remove punctuation from any of them.
We are using the "namekey with spaces removed" option for our usernames but currently have a vendor that won't accept emails with apostrophes, such as O'Neil. It would solve a lot of problems if Skyward could remove those when creating the usernames/email addresses.

Ability to drop all classes for a student on the student Profile Schedule screen
In our elementary schools, we have many students who start with one teacher and have several classes assigned from that one teacher using a scheduling group. When that student changes teachers each class has to be dropped manually on the Current Scheduling area on the student profile. The ability to choose to drop all and enter one effective date would be great, or at least the same screen as when adding classes and entering effective dates for each class on one screen would work. The same as when using the schedule all button on the add course button. This would…

default cursor to search field in all list screens
currently when you open a list screen the cursor is no where. You have to click on the search field. It should automatically put the cursor there so I can start typing. It already does this on the student profile.
