District updates board on Skyward payroll and accounts-payable transition
Summary
Chief financial officer told the board the district completed its second payroll using Skyward and praised improved AP workflows that attach invoices and purchase orders to checks; general-ledger budget migration is imminent.
The district's finance team reported progress on the transition to the Skyward financial and payroll system.
The chief financial officer said the district had completed its second payroll in Skyward and that staff who managed payroll had done heavy lifting to complete the conversion. On the accounts-payable side, the CFO said checks will now include attached digital documentation (invoice, purchase order and supporting documents) available within the system, which will reduce time spent locating paper files. The CFO also said the district will bring budget and general-ledger balances forward into Skyward in the coming week, after which more in-depth budget work will proceed.
The presentation included positive feedback on staff training materials prepared for principals and secretaries and an overall assessment that Skyward offers smoother transaction workflows. The board did not take separate formal action on the transition during the meeting.
