Limitations when building Ministering Assignments in LCR

Post by brazilianpratt »

1– As EQP, in concert with RSP, we’ve assigned some spouses as ministering companions. However, we are unable to add any eligible youth children to also be a part of that companionship. Likely a bug in LCR due to two adults having different genders (spouses) and trying to add a youth (if though it’s a child) to that companionship?

2– Do RS or EQ counselors have permissions in LCR to edit proposed assignments (including proposing a companionship of spouses)??

Thanks!

1 - It is my understanding that the only way to do what you want to do is to create another companionship with one of the adults in question and an eligible youth, and they would have different families or individuals assigned to them.

2- Probably, but I don't have a way to test it and the access table is not that specific. However, as a practical matter, it would be better for one person, normally the president or I suppose a delegated counselor to make changes to proposed assignments, and only with the consent of the president and the knowledge of the other counselor.

In the Access Table inside LCR, those callings are grouped together in the "Elders Quorum Presidency" or "Relief Society Presidency" choices. This indicates that there shouldn't be a difference between what a EQ/RS President can do in LCR, and what a Counselor can do.
