Thanks for your helpful replies. Our focus is improving the visits and teaching. That is why we would like to see the history preserved. But, your focus is the families visited, and so updating the stats makes sense so that they reflect the current members in the unit. I posted this earlier, but it ...

I suppose my focus is to measure the performance of the home teachers. We are struggling with low percentages in some of our units and as we improve PPIs, etc. we hope to see the number of visits increase (also the quality of those visits, harder to measure). I now understand that the focus in MLS i...

In the past few weeks one of our wards has received several membership records for members living outside our stake boundries. I called the membership and boundaries support group today and they asked me if the boundaries of our wards and stakes are correct. I checked them in the maps in LDS.org and...

Had a ward clerk pull the February HT Statistical Report that the Bishop uses each month as he conducts PPIs with the Priesthood and Relief Society leaders. I'm a stake executive secretary and so don't see this level of detail in the Stake MLS report we see. The box of monthly statistics for the Eld...

Thanks for the clarification. This is confusing to those making the entries each month. I'll try to explain it to them. Could I make a suggestion? Why not make the data for previous months become a constant and not recalculate them each month. I see no value in having historical HT and VT statistics...

Sorry to be slow in getting back to the forum. So the percent visited number for the previous twelve months is recalculated each month, based on the total number of members in the unit in the current month. That will explain the change in historical data. We had assumed that prior months' data becam...

But, previous month's visiting teaching statistics are historical in nature and should not change based on changes in current months numbers. We are seeing the previous twelve months historical data changing. I would expect them to remain constant. Or, maybe I don't understand what the previous twel...

We have been pushing our priesthood and Relief Society leaders to enter their visits into MLS each month. It's been a struggle, but we are getting there. This month a ward Relief Society President noticed that the numbers (percent contacted and sisters contacted) have been changing from month to mon...

Looked for a post on this, but can't find anything here. Late last night I think I watched an update to this manual (Doctrine & Covenants for Gospel Doctrine class). I was using it on line to prepare for a Gospel Doctrine lesson this morning. The site locked up and was unresponsive for a few min...

The link to CDOL in LDS.org does not work (Friday, Dec. 28th, 5:30 PM). Used to be able to get to it through the Leadership Resources menu item. I was able to log on just now by logging on to cdol.lds.org as suggested below. As Stake Executive Secretary I use CDOL a lot to find other units outside o...
