Secured User History Report
It would be helpful to have a secured user detailed history report. We have internal audits and at times are questioned by state auditors for this information. A report that can be ran by secured user and for a date range that displays detailed history accessed by that user or an option to select user defined fields of access.

ON STUDENT SIDE - ABILITY TO ADD STAFF TO ENTITY AND SECURITY AT SAME TIME!!!
When creating Staff at entity; have option to go directly to security area to add security for that staff person
When creating a Staff member, a teacher for example, it would be nice to have a box to check to 'Add Security' and upon saving that set up, be taken directly to the Secured User area to that specific staff members account and add their security without having to move out of the Staff area and into the security area and then retype in the staff name and expand to add the security. This could go hand in hand with…3 votes -
Mass Activate / Inactive Security Groups
We inactivate security groups during the time frame after rolling the year and the start of school so that the school personnel can add scheduling information without all the teacher "eyes" viewing their progress. If we could select groups to mass activate and inactive, it would be a huge time saver.

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).

Mass change Web access based on grade level
It would be helpful to be able to add/remove Web Access for students based on a grade level. We do not want our 4k-1 grade student to have Web Access on but would need to turn on Web access for 2nd grade.

Support SAML group claims for security groups
We implemented LDAP group syncing for security groups which worked well for us for as we transitioned to SAML authentication to support passwordless logins and multi-factor authentication it does not function correctly. We need to the user to login via LDAP to update their groups or manual expand the groups for SAML users to update their LDAP group memberships.
I think long term it would be better to support SAML claims which can be used to replace LDAP group syncing and to dynamically populate security groups. This can be a 1:1 mapping or provide an option similar to LDAP groups…

I would like to see more security limits under WS\ST\TB\PR\PR . I don't want them to be able to change student’s names here.
I want our secretaries to be able to update the "General Information" but I don't want them to be able to change the legal "Student Name".

Assign security access based off student type.
Allow access to the student tab but only have access to SPED students. We do not want users to edit the student type under ranges. For example, SPED Guidance Counselor needs access to SPED students only, not all students.

Security settings in SkyDoc Tutorials
When giving tutorials or instructions on how to set items up, it would be nice to be given directions that some user securities may need to be changed. For example, when setting up the HGSS, in order for Teachers to enter the scores, their security settings in their security groups need to be changed to allow them access. Currently, there is nothing in the template or directions informing you that security settings may need to be changed, or what settings/path will need to be changed.

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.

Single Sign On Mobile App
Please allow a "Sign in with SSO" button on the Skyward Mobile Apps for Android and iOS, so districts with SSO configured can allow that type of security on mobile apps as well as the web.
11 votesWe are happy to announce that we are rewriting our mobile app to allow for single sign on support for SMS. The updated app is currently in beta testing and is expected to be delivered soon! We will post an other update here once it is released.

Ability to autogenerate both usernames AND email addresses
When defining the user Login format, if I want it to be an email address, I apparently can NOT also generate email addresses. If Skyward didn't hard-code the '@' sign into the "Automatically Generate Email Addresses" option, then this would not be a problem.
Remove the hard-coded '@' sign from email auto-generation, and also expand the "text" parts to allow for additional character length.

Track changes for Secured Users
It would be nice to add the option of tracking changes that are made to a users security.
15 votesThere is the User Security Change Audit report that is found under PS\CA\SE\RE\HR\CH. There are a few other History Reports listed with it as well. Let us know how this works for you!

Schedule to Inactivate a Security User & Staff
Our District would find it very helpful if we had the ability to schedule a date to Inactivate a Secured User and in addition the ability to add a date for making a staff member inactive. We often find a staff member is leaving the District but are given directions for specific dates to inactivate them as staff and as a secured user in both Skyward Student and Finance. It would be very helpful if a date to inactivate could be added within the secured user and staff areas of both Skyward Student and Finance.

Security for Critical Alerts on Emergency Tab
We would like the security for the Alert Information on the Emergency Information tab to be broken out from the rest of the page. We would like staff to be able to enter emergency information but do NOT want them entering Critical Alerts without prior approval. I would like to be able to separate the 2 to only make it available to a few. Currently that option exists if you are using the path ST/SI/IF/AI.

Limit who can see Social Security Numbers
Our auditors are requesting that we have the ability to limit who has access to student social security numbers for previous students. If a student is no longer active in the system they want us to be able to limit who can see those social security numbers. I know several Florida districts have been asked this this year in our audits this year and have had to state that we will work with Skyward to see if this can be addressed. Within security you can assign users to only see current student SS#'s

Two Level Authentication
Subject - Two Level Authentication
We would like Skyward to incorporate two level user authentication in each of the following areas (Employee Access/Student Access/Secured Access/NSOE/Skyward Finance/Skyward HR/Skyward Student). We need this authentication to be set up for internal and external users with a configuration for each district to select from the following three options "Internal Only" "External Only" "Both Internal and External" for each area listed above. This is important to school districts since most district's have single sign on (Active Directory Login) and if a user's login is compromised it would allow the person gaining this information to have…

Custom Forms - Cloning Security
