How Yakima School District Transformed HR and Payroll with Automated Workflows
For years, Yakima School District struggled to find a digital solution that could truly replace paper-based timesheets and streamline complex approval routes. After exploring multiple systems, they finally found what worked — a platform that integrated seamlessly with Skyward, improved accuracy, and gave staff their time back.
By automating their timesheet process, Yakima:
- Saved more than $100,000 annually by eliminating duplicate payments
- Reduced 40+ hours of manual cleanup every pay period
- Enabled seamless uploads into Skyward for faster processing
- Improved visibility across multiple funding sources
- Built a process that staff actually enjoy using
In this on-demand session, hear directly from Yakima’s central office leaders — Susan Fate, Director of Fiscal Services, Shari Chapman, Director of Payroll, and Sergio Abundiz, Skyward Fiscal & Human Resources Supervisor — as they share how they transformed their workflows, strengthened accuracy, and simplified payroll for their district.
Their story offers a practical, proven blueprint for districts looking to modernize their business operations, built for the realities of public education.
