One potential complication: I believe you will find that there are situations where changing a donor's status to Hidden does not work ie. their status can revert back to Visible. If you first insure that the donor is set to "Out of Unit", THEN change the status to Hidden, then the donor will stay Hi...

We are a YSA ward and occasionally invite members of a neighboring stake YSA branch to participate in our ward monthly activities. The YSA branch wants to send us a check to pay for some of the costs, ie food, associated with the activity. Our Bishop agrees. My question relates to the specifics of d...

Is it possible to have the "Tithing Declaration Report" (ie. the official list of members and their declared tithing status that is submitted in January) print so that ONLY current ward members appear on this report? If so, how do you do it? We are a YSA ward with lots of move ins/outs and this repo...

Our YSA ward is just starting to use the new calendar system. We have wondered if we should consider doing the YSA Ward Activities Calendar as a STAKE calendar vs a WARD calendar so that the YSA members who attend family wards could easily view the YSA ward activities that are planned and therefore ...

The main frustration I have with MLS accounting is that you can solve a problem, only to have it come back to life at a later date, perhaps a year or more later or after we get yet another MLS release like MLS 3.4.1 which reprocesses data differently that a previous MLS release and therefore somehow...

After doing the upgrade to MLS 3.4.1, our "Ward Budget Balance forward from CY 2010" dropped by $201. I haven't had the opportunity to research why this has happened yet. However, it is an illustration, I think, of why people don't feel confident of data in MLS: it changes suddenly for no reason obv...

Since the CUBS change we too are seeing checks listed in the outstanding checks section of the local unit monthly financial statement which have, in fact, already been deposited by the payees some time ago. Mostly these checks numbers show up as the check number preceded by 4 zeros ie. "00001234". T...

The Printing of mailing Labels option appears as "grayed out" on the drop down list. Is this a "bug" or is there some action I can take in order to print mailing labels? (We are a YSA ward had need to mail out donor statements to a large number of former ward members.)

Thanks

I printed the Annual Bishop's tithing settlement report and noticed that everyone who donated during the year was listed on the report, including people who have moved out of the ward. I was under the impression that this report should only list CURRENT ward members. Can anyone clarify this point? I...

Regarding the Oct Financial Statement: Pg 4, sec VIII YTD summary is IDENTICAL to the YTD summary of the Sept Financial Statement, meaning the Oct 1-Oct 19 Financial activity is NOT reflected in the YTD summary numbers on the Oct Statement!! This means that the "Total Amount Transfered YTD" Under th...
