Maximizing the Potential of Your Skyward Investment

Skyward is a trusted foundation for district finance and HR as a system of record for payroll, accounting, and personnel files—but recordkeeping alone doesn’t complete the job. Processes like extra duty timesheets, reimbursements, and personnel requisitions involve complex approvals, compliance risks, and cross‑functional collaboration that require flexibility beyond what Skyward is designed to provide. That’s where InformedK12 comes in: a purpose‑built K‑12 workflow platform that serves as the action layer on top of Skyward, orchestrating critical HR and finance processes before data is imported.

With pre‑approvals made simple, a complete documentation trail, and smart reconciliation controls that automatically detect and flag duplicate timesheet entries, wrong pay rates, and budget code discrepancies, districts keep Skyward clean and authoritative while reducing manual entry and improving audit readiness. 450+ districts—including Yakima School District, which reduced timesheet processing by 95% —use InformedK12 to streamline high‑volume workflows.

What You’ll Learn
  • How InformedK12 complements Skyward so it remains your source of truth
  • Common process gaps in Skyward
  • The orchestration framework districts use to digitize extra duty pay, reimbursements, travel authorizations, personnel, and more—aligned to your Skyward data model

We’ll walk through how InformedK12 pairs with Skyward to support your most critical, high‑volume forms—and how everything connects back to the ERP.
