The bishop of the original ward can initiate the transfer in the Missionary Recommendation system and then it must be accepted by the new bishop. It's a good idea for the bishops to talk so both are aware before this is done. The clerk should also determine when the change should be effective so tha...

His point was that if the sheet was separated from the receipts, then modification of an electronic file would be easier to accomplish and more difficult to detect than on a physical receipt. Putting the images together into a single document does not provide any additional protection. A PDF can be...

So were the auditors satisfied with that process? I am questioning the need for the request cover page if it all happens in LCR from beginning to end. Having the receipt as one document and the cover as another makes my bishop uncomfortable, so I spend a lot of time trying to combine the cover page...

Go to their donor record in LCR (look under Finance > Participants) and check to make sure thy show up as a member. If not then use the Merge button to merge the non-member donor record into their membership record. If they show up as a member already then you'll probably have to contact the global ...

I don't know of any official instructions. However, steps were posted by a fellow forum member here: https://tech.churchofjesuschrist.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=34915&p=216815&hilit=reimbursement+request#p216693 Only organization presidency members (including secretaries) can submit ...

There are really just two exceptions now: donation/deposit batches and printing checks. Donation batches ...

I believe that the phone number on the Church account and the phone number on your membership record are two different things. The phone number on the Church Account is only used for account recovery and 2FA. The phone number on your membership record is what shows up on the church directory. The sa...

In actual practice, my experience is that the bishopric and the ward council ignore the clerk's pleas for a decision, leaving the budget division up to the clerk the first time he logs in to MLS each January. I have to admit that has been my experience as well. General I (as clerk) have prepared th...

The Local Unit Budget Instructions for Organization Leaders in the help center indicate that the bishop manages the budget but may assign a counselor to supervise the budget and a clerk to prepare and monitor it. In addition it states that the bishopric prepares the budget but should ask organizatio...

Good to know and thanks for the correction. I haven't had reason to edit any categories so I hadn't seen that.
