This paper investigates skew ${\Theta}-{\lambda}$-constacyclic codes over $R=F_0{\oplus}F_1{\oplus}{\cdots}{\oplus}F_{k-1}$, where $F{_i}^{\prime}s$ are finite fields. The structures of skew ${\lambda}$-constacyclic codes over finite commutative semi-simple rings and their duals are provided. Moreover, skew ${\lambda}$-constacyclic codes of arbitrary length are studied under a new definition. We also show that a skew cyclic code of arbitrary length over finite commutative semi-simple rings is equivalent to either a cyclic code over R or a quasi-cyclic code over R.
