How many days for updated meeting time to appear on meetinghouse locator?
We have a slight change to meeting times for next Sunday. I updated the time in LCR on Monday morning (since I couldn't access LCR on Sunday). Two days later, the meetinghouse locator doesn't yet show the change. How long does it take for updates to make it to the meetinghouse locator?

Usually takes a few days to flow through all the systems, Monday being a holiday might take a little longer.mevans wrote: ↑Wed Sep 04, 2024 10:34 am We have a slight change to meeting times for next Sunday.

Is the change just for one Sunday? It's usually used to adjust the time for the new year. Which makes me wonder how well it will work for a one-off.

Meeting times can be changed as often as the times actually change. There is no just one time a year change rule.russellhltn wrote: ↑Wed Sep 04, 2024 11:08 am Is the change just for one Sunday?

I don't disagree, but the question is how everything is set up behind the scenes. In the ever changing development, it might have been turned off with the expectoration it wouldn't be needed until the new year. It's an IT question, not a Handbook one.garystroble wrote: ↑Wed Sep 04, 2024 1:49 pm Meeting times can be changed as often as the times actually change. There is no just one time a year change rule.

Well our ward is changing not only Sunday times but going to sacrament meeting last in October, combining youth classes and Primary with another ward in our building. Hopefully I don't have to call the GSC to change the times and sequencing.

That most likely won't be necessary. The meeting times that can be edited are the "First Meeting" time and "Sacrament Meeting" time.garystroble wrote: ↑Wed Sep 04, 2024 3:44 pm Hopefully I don't have to call the GSC to change the times and sequencing.

Why wait until the new year to change meeting times? Many units change in September to align with the school year. Other units change whenever a ward or stake division takes place, which might occur any time of the year.russellhltn wrote: ↑Wed Sep 04, 2024 3:05 pmI don't disagree, but the question is how everything is set up behind the scenes.

During COVID, wards in our stake changed times almost monthly.
On average, I found that the meeting time updated in two to three days, so we always changed them on Mondays. If one of them slipped through the cracks, I also found that it could not be triggered again and the GSD had to fix it for us. But there was no consistency as to which unit did not change, if any.

New one on me. In my area they change with the calendar year. Again, I'm not saying this is policy, but IT might have shut down the sync to take care of some change.
If you don't see the change in a few days, I'd call support.

Re: How many days for updated meeting time to appear on meetinghouse locator?
Here we are on Thursday and it's still not updated. Maybe I'll call GSC today and see what they know. We periodically get visitors and I want people to see the correct time on the meetinghouse locator. But if it takes days for that to update, it's kind of useless.
