Hi, I'm Coach Lauren. 

Shortly before the first match of the season, my staff meets to make the final selections for the varsity roster. You too should be able to create a lineup you can go back to throughout the school year without always starting from square one. 

Processing Lists 

Processing Lists allow you to create and save a list of students or employees, which can be repeatedly used to run reports in other areas of Skyward. 

To create a processing list, go to Advanced Features, then Processing Lists. 

From this screen, you can Add, Edit, and Delete lists. Use Filter Options to choose whether to display all processing lists or only those created by you, the current user. 

To create a new list, click Add. Name your list and then click Save. 

Create a New List 

To start building your list, select Add/Delete Names, then Add. 

Check the boxes in front of everyone you want to include. 

To search for someone by name, use the alphabetized letters or the Lookup box in the lower right corner. You can also use the Filters at the top to focus your search. 

When your list is complete, click Select. 

Then click the Back button to return to the Processing List main screen. 

Import a List 

If you already have a list of names saved on your computer, rather than making manual name selections, you may prefer to import the list. 

On the Add/Delete Names screen, select Import. 

Then select the List Type, the way names will be listed in the file you are importing. 

Summary 

Select a .csv file, then click Import. 

The names you've added will now be listed in the Names in Processing List section. 

You can use this list to run reports throughout Skyward. 

There's no need to create a new lineup from scratch every time you want to run a report. 

Work smarter with Skyward. 

And stay tuned for more Quick Hits for admin assistants coming soon.
