Automated Email for Staff Changes
We would like to have an automated e-mail generated when a staff member becomes inactive in an entity. An e-mail could then be generated to the Skyward admin who handles the User Accounts, prompting a change in their Active Secured User status to NO.

Staff Locator Should Include the Course Code as well as a Link to View the Class Roster
Would like to see the course code and section number under Student/Staff Locator (currently it only shows the section number) and be able to click on the section to view the class roster. This would be great for people who only know the teacher's name or don't have access to the Course or Section Masters.

Staff Pictures
I would love for us to be able to include staff pictures on staff reports. We could use the report as a Staff Directory with pictures and contact info. The directory could be very helpful, especially to new staff.

Mass Update Conferences already created
There needs to be a utility created to mass edit conferences already created. Example PT conferences scheduled for 11/15/18. Had to be rescheduled due to weather. New date is now 11/29/18. All previously scheduled conferences for 11/15 need to be moved to 11/29.

Add option to record more than one grade level within Staff Entity Maintenance
We have several staff members (Art, PE, Music, etc.) who teach courses at multiple grade levels, however, the staff entity maintenance screen allows only one grade level to be selected. Ideally, this would allow for entry of more than one grade level in this screen as well as the option to select a default grade level.

Configuration Setting Needed for Long/Short Names
When adding Staff it would be useful having default configuration setting for long and short name. Presently when adding a new staff member Skyward auto-populates the long and short name with the Last Name of the new staff member i.e. Washington. We would like to have the option to configure for example the Long name as Last Name First Initial i.e. Washington G. Also the limit of 10 and 20 characters for the short and long name is not enough. There are many employees that have hyphenated names that are much longer than 20 characters.

Default building codes on Staff
When adding new staff to system the default building code should automatically be assigned to a staff member.
Currently it is not and when our export to Skylert goes out staff members are NOT being entered into their assigned building.
There is a work around currently but you have to add the staff and then drill down on the staff member to add the building code again to the entity.6 votes -
Utility to inactivate staff
Managing staff and security accounts manually is a major task. I would like to request a utility that would inactivate users in Staff and set the Active Secured User field in Security to 'No' if they have not logged in within xx number of days. We would be able to select the number of days since last log in to inactivate.
Inactivating accounts for staff who've been out for a lengthy period of time. But the resolution would be easy since accounts are only being inactivated. We would turn those accounts back on manually.44 votes -
2nd Family Conference Scheduling
Teaching staff is requesting that ONLY 1ST Family/Guardians be allowed to schedule conferences. Currently every guardian attached to the student has the ability to schedule. This creates multiple teacher conferences for the same child and unfortunately the parents that can't get along twist their meeting information and use it against the other effectively putting the child and teacher in the middle. It also takes a conference slot from availablity and forces the teacher to have virtually the same meeting twice.
The option to limit registration to Family 1 already exists. It would be very helpful to have that option in…36 votes -
Parent needs to see all time slots that were avail
When a parent is trying to view all available conference time slots and a teacher is completely booked it only allows the parent to view the time slots taken for that specific course and section. We want the parent to see all time slots that were at one point available but are now closed. The parent in this example thought we only gave them 8 choices when in reality there were 30 available spots.

Please Secure Staff Confidential Data
I'm requesting that the data in WS\SF\SF be secured with more options of specific info to secure/provide access to as opposed to the current option of allowing access to all staff data or no staff data. We are using the parent conference scheduler feature this year and in order for our office personnel to be able to schedule conferences when parents call or stop in we need to allow the office personnel access to staff data. Currently when a person is given access to staff data this includes access to social security numbers birthdates and phone numbers. Office personnel do…

Provide Skylert portal for staff and students
We have staff members wishing to update their contact information in Skylert but are unable to do so. There should be a way for staff members to have access to a Skylert tab similar to what guardians are able to do now and be able to update their phone numbers and alerting categories all in one place.
Students should also have this features. With the mass increase in student cell phone and the increased need to provide rapid communication to everyone we would like to be able to contact students via Skylert so we would like the students to be…34 votes
