Why roll out a new system with no training
Posted: Sun Apr 14, 2019 9:55 pm
If anyone from the church headquarters reads these forums I have a question. And only please respond to the thread if you are from there.
I am a stake financial clerk and have not gotten any prior information about the changes that have taken place in MLS and requiring a now electronic approval of written checks. This seams to be a systemic problem in the roll out of changes to the finance section of MLS through the years. This is now a drastic change to the procedures and more will be coming and the clerks in the wards are asking all kinds of questions that I have no answers for. My questions are noted.
1. When will we start to get formal notification of changes that will be taking place and when the date of implementation will be switched?
2. When will we start to get formal tanning to the changes so we do not have to make it up as we go along?
3. When will we get notification to questions that magically change during the audits? It would be nice to get them throughout the year when they do change so that we can be in compliance and not get an audit exception during the audit.
It would be nice to get notifications as all of our emails are on file and it would be easy to send out an email to all of us when changes are going to be taken place so we can train the ward clerks and know for ourselves how to deal with the problems that arise from the changes as they affect all of us.
