But the action you took on the Classic site with Non-resident Members only affected the Classic site. The new site works the way it does because of the Out of Unit membership records in MLS, not because of anything you did on the Classic site.

Now that is strange. What you are saying only makes sense as to how it should work. However, we still have many out of unit members who are defaulting to their home ward on the new site. When I add them to the non-resident portion on the old site, they are able to access the YSA info. This is what several people at the MSL hot line told me I to do.

I talked to MLS support and had a clarification to this issue. If the out of unit member is serving in a ward, such as bishop counselor, the member will be able to view the new ward directory as soon as the ward clerk assigns him as an out of unit member to that ward. For stake officers this doesn't work as they are assigned by the stake and not a ward. In order for stake officers in a YSA stake to see the YSA stake directory, you still need to go to the classic site and assign them as a non-resident member. That then gives the stake officer the capability to access the YSA stake new site also. This capability will be lost when the classic site is closed. I hope they come up with a way for the Stake President to view the YSA stake info.

Interesting. That's the first time I can think of anything on the old site affecting anything "new". Thanks for the follow-up.

It's an interesting theory, but in this post a Church developer explains how there cannot be such a connection.

we have a senior Missionary couple from out of our Stake (Ut home ward) now called to be Branch President. with updates in MLS - Can I add him at Stake level & it will populate to Branch? & he should be able to log on to Stake Calendar, etc.... rw

But none of the Bishopric Members or missionaries show up in the directory as members unless I list leaders at the top of the directory then they are there.
They did under classic but not under the new version.

HELP

Bishops and branch presidents are entered in stake MLS using a Leader and Unit Change Request (LUCR). Once that has been processed by CHQ, he should appear in CDOL, and also in the Directory. Within a day or so after that, he should have access rights to websites such as the Directory and Calendar by virtue of his calling.

It should also go down to the Branch MLS, or the Branch can also add him into their MLS (it won't get send up to CDOL and the other online systems. The stake MLS is the correct place for that as aebrown described).

I have two sets of seniors serving in our YSA ward that are out of unit and out of stake. Both have out of unit memberships in the ward.
One of the men has access to both his home ward and stake and our stake where he is serving. The other does not.
I cannot see any settings that would be different?

What callings do they have in the served ward/stake? Is it a standardized calling in MLS? Does it show up properly in the CDOL?
