On Sunday, my bishop asked if I could move records out from my home computer.....I told him it was in the works and would probably be possible later this year....and here it is! Or at least in beta....Thank you for all the work that goes into something of this magnitude. It makes my clerk calling much easier.

Today, I was easily able to move out 2 families using my iPad.... The ultimate portable MLS!

Are there any timelines available for the additional features being released (Manage callings, update ordinances) in clerk resources?

We're always hesitant to post release schedules because the schedules frequently change. However, we hope this will provide you with some kind of idea of what and when. Please remember these releases are to our beta environment, not to full production. Full production releases will occur once translation of the content is available.

Thanks, PartridgeRM, for being willing to share a tentative schedule. It's nice to see things like this. If nothing else, it gives us an idea of what might be coming. I hope no one abuses having this information and starts badgering for "It's August...where is it?"

I for 2 love this as well. Most of the times dates are irrelevant to me, the items in queue is what I'm hoping to get some exposure to.

Maybe a tech form could be created with a giant disclaimer flashing lights, etc... but it could be a place to put out some roadmap information to your community of users

So is the Beta Testing over? Signing on today, I don't have access to the Beta Clerk's Resources.
