I need to remove some users from the stake computer. I can remove all the checkmarks, rendering former users as inactive, but seemingly cannot remove them completely.
Is there a trick for this?
Thanks,
Mike Klobas
Stake Clerk

It's a common question. If the person had used their login for any financial transactions, they can not be deleted until the retention period for those transactions are up. That's 3 years in the U.S.

I instruct clerks in our stake to click on the username to be replaced the put in a new user name and link that to the MLS membership of the new person and have them creat their password, or assign them one. That prevents the creation of long lists of people who are no longer active on MLS.
I don't know how that affects traceability, but must suppose that the handwritten initials on the batch reports are sufficient for tracing. I can't think of any reason for tracing membership, but suppose there may be some. Membership record changes could be traced by the logins of who did them, which I think are in Windows, rather than MLS.

This is ill advised as you will be creating far greater problems that you are solving.

All users of MLS must log in using the same Windows profile. MLS tracks data entry by the MLS username used at MLS login.E&LDow wrote:Membership record changes could be traced by the logins of who did them, which I think are in Windows, rather than MLS.
