Fee Management - Ability to Reverse Charge if paid via web/vendor
Currently, if a parent pays for a fee/charge using our online vender/wep payment, we lose the ability to reverse the charge and have to use an Arrears code to document the refund. It would be a lot easier if we could still just do a "reverse charge" and process the refund record for fees paid online like we can for fees that were paid with cash/check.

Parent conference confirmation emails - include guardian phone number field
With COVID making conferences virtual instead of in person, our conference scheduler will be setting up scheduled phone calls. It would be very helpful to be able to include the parent/guardian phone number in the confirmation email to confirm that as the contact number.

Allowing guardian to be able to edit an New Student Online Enrollment form after it has been denied

Teacher - Mass Enter Attendance - Virtual Present
Indiana teachers who teach students virtually must now enter Virtual Present each day for each student. Since Skyward is hard coded to mark students Present, it will lead to a great deal of inaccurate data.
We can now add additional columns for teachers on their attendance page.
It would be great if teachers could click on the Virtual Present header to have it auto fill Virtual Present for all students.
To add some complexity, we also are currently in Stage 4. This means 1/2 of the students are virtual Mon and Tue, the other 1/2 are virtual Thu and Fri…10 votesThank you for the feedback! With the release of June Addendum 9 (10/1/2020), PR 4495470 has added a Select All option within the header of each attendance option/column setup for teacher use on the Attendance by Name screen. With this, teachers can click on the link to mass apply the appropriate option to all students, make any minor modifications as needed, and save their class attendance.
In addition, PR 4506708 was completed in Addendum 9 to make the MOI column sortable. In the event you have Method of Instruction records set to differentiate these students, teachers can sort these students together.
I hope these new options assist teachers in their daily attendance entry, but please let us know any other feedback on the topic. Thank you!

Secondary Gradebook 2 Seating Charts
Hello:
Due to the virtual and hybrid as well as in person instructional choices, our teachers have inquired if it would be possible to have two different seating charts within the same class. I know that Student Groups can be created but do these groups also offer separate seating chart options? If so how can this be accomplished?
Please review and advise.
Thank you!

MOI on attendance field
Can you put "Method of Instruction" on the Today's Attendance field for each student, so you can see, if the student is absent, what MOI they are instead of having to go to their profile page?

Link Conferences with the Sub Assignment
It would be extremely helpful if the sub assignment would also link the conferences for the teacher they are covering for. The sub needs to have access to view the conferences as they will be the one attending them while the teacher of record is out.

Need to be able to populate attendance based on Student Wellness screener fails/blanks
We need an attendance link/update utility between the wellness screen and the attendance screen. We already have a "failed screener" absence reason. We'd love to auto-update attendance as screener fails are entered with that code. That way a teacher who is taking attendance in any period can see if a screener-failed student is still present in class and ask them to head to the office/nurse to leave school.

Add Processing List to Period Detail and Summary Attendence Reports and 'Today's Date' for scheduling the report
Teachers are now able to go back and edit attendance if students submitted work by 11:59 pm in all of Texas. There is no report that can be run that allows the user to default to "today's date" and allows a Processing list to be used. We need to add the Processing List feature to the "Period Detail" attendance report or the ability to add "today's date" as a setting for the "Attendance Detail or Summary" report. This is the only way we can set up absent reports that can run on a scheduled task. This is a critical need…

"Start time" for online registration
I would love to have an option to set a "start" time for online registration and maybe allow it viewable to parents in Family Access . If they try to register, they'll see the date and time that it will open.
Example:
Start Online Registration on Thursday, 8/13/2020 Time: 8:00 am
End Online Registration on Friday, 10/2/2020 Time: 5:00 pmIf we schedule registration for a specific day, it automatically opens up at midnight, and we come in to a plethora of emails from parents who needed assistance. If we can set a time on it, it allows for us…

skylert attendance export (COVID related enhancement)
With distance learning we need the ability to pull the Skylert attendance export for the previous day's absences. We allow students to work throughout the day so teachers can adjust attendance the following morning. We'd like to continue using our automated attendance calls via School Messenger but have them turned off because there is no option from this area (WS\AD\SL) to run the export on the previous day. Please add a field that would allow us to select the previous day.

Add Dyslexia Service & Risk Field in Skybuild-Import
Can we import Dyslexia Service Record from outside of Skyward.
This is TX State Report Field and there is no way we can update this information. We have more than 2,000 students with this record and data is changed daily. We need something we can automate this process.
We are currently on Skyward SMS.
44 votesThank you so much for your votes on this idea and all the comments! We are having discussions regarding the ability to do this internally and with other vendors such as Frontline as mentioned in comments.
We will update this public status as soon as we have more to share.

PERFECT ATTENDANCE: Date AND Period Specific

Date/Time Associated with Showing Schedule after Online Registration
Having the ability to only show schedule after OR is completed is great but this option needs to be associated with a date/time. Currently, we need to hide the schedule option right after Year End until OR starts and then adjust the settings again - usually at midnight, when OR begins. For example, the ability to hide from 6/30 - 8/1, but then show starting at 8 am on 8/1, once online registration is completed.

Expired Password Reset
It would be very helpful if the utility to Mass Generate Family Permissions/Passwords (WS\FA\FM\PS\UT\PP) would include the option to only reset expired passwords.
We send out letters yearly to families regarding their accounts then weekly as new students register through the school year. In this letter we include the initial login and password (blank if the parent already changed). A number of parent accounts have expired passwords since elementaries typically hadn't logged in much, but with virtual schooling we have a lot more parents trying to log in.7 votes -
Edit for parents in new student enrollment
Currently parents are unable to access forms if they have accidentally hit submit. Is there any way Skyward could add an Edit Button so parents could have access to make changes or add information??
