    This would be a great optional feature that districts could enable across most Accounts Payables area; not just requisitions. Expense reimbursement and credit cards would be a great place for this feature as well.

    Similar to how Skyward loads updates to different system tables through releases, I think it would be really neat if districts could opt into getting US Zip Code updates from Skyward and zip code management could be something we didn't need to worry about.

    The check reconciliation browse can be used to sort by check number to view and export based on check number and can be sorted. This is located through Web Financial Management > Accounts Payable > Check Reconciliation.

    Thank you for submitting the product idea!


    While we currently do not reports available for Expense Reimbursements, the History menu does offer a lot of the same information which can be narrowed down by filters to sort by things such as an Work in Progress or Waiting for Approval status reimbursements. These browses are all also able to be downloaded to Excel and printed as reports.


    Could you try this browse and adding some custom filters to see how this works?


    Thank you!

    Deferred  ·  AdminAshley Prinsen (Product Owner - Business Suite, Skyward SMS 2.0) responded

    Thank you for submitting this idea.

    This functionality already exists in Skyward. If an employee submits their time sheets from web, mobile, and reader when an unapproved time off request is out there for that week validation exists to prevent the user from submitting the time sheet.

    There is also validation when the time sheet is being approved to catch any unapproved time off requests at that point.

    Is the situation that the time off requests are being put in after the time sheet has been submitted/approved?

    Thank you!
