This sounds more like a End of Year - Family PPI than it does tithing settlement. If Bishops want family PPI's then they should schedule them, if they want tithing settlement, then they should schedule that. You make a valid point but let me offer examples to defend my Bishop's approach: In Handboo...

I love tithing settlement. I came to that over many years sitting in the clerk's office while my bishop interviewed faithful members. A bonus is that I get to visit with them while they wait their turn. It is a great opportunity to get to know people - some of whom have not come to church in years, ...

We have been getting requests for excess funds from our Area Authority roughly every six months for the last year and a half. We are instructed to keep a 3 month buffer for each missionary in the field, if those funds are available. Transfers to the stake are easy and I know there is at least one wa...

Personally, I don't think future generations will be using paper at all in a while. Well, we don't use gold plates anymore but I'm sure glad Nephi thru Moroni did. ;) This does make one think about where technology is taking us and how to best preserve records for the future.

One of our monthly stake bishopric meetings included Ward Clerks and Finance Clerks. The Area Auditor presented a discussion about the auditing process and gave a lot of tips about doing finances the "right" way. It was very good. I have been doing finances for years and learned a lot. Esp...

That's what I thought but his wording suggested there might be another route. Thanks for the reply.

I am resurrecting this thread because of a current need to get at some HT data dated prior to a complete overhaul of the HT districts and companionships. The OP mentioned that he could open a backup and print the information needed. Is there a way to do that without restoring the backup file to MLS ...

This is a very useful and important tool as we help in Hastening the Work. There is much more to the story, but we recently needed someone to help the missionaries teach a person from Indonesia. I did the report from our ward and didn't find anyone, but we did find a member in the stake who served t...

I consulted my Stake Clerk and got this resolved. At first, we weren't sure what his calling title was. So we looked him up in CDOL. Duh.

The fix in this case is Out of Unit, Custom Calling, Area Seventy

Thanks for the reply

My search ability is not working well tonight. I have a ward member who is serving in one of the Quorums of Seventy. I assumed that his calling (in Organizations and Callings) would be updated by some higher authority but that hasn't happened. He now is on the Members Without Callings report. For th...
