Standard callings in custom organization
Posted: Mon Aug 27, 2012 10:00 pm
I have been unable to locate an answer to this.. I am in a YSA ward and we are trying to find the best way to organize the callings in MLS. Currently, we have just about every calling as a custom calling in a custom organization, which is not preferable. The difficulty lies in wanting to still have organizations be separate while using standard callings.
For example, we have 20+ members of our Activities Committee (approval was received to keep this after the 2010 Handbook was released), and 30+ members of the Ward Mission organization. We want to be able to list each organization separately while using the standard calling (i.e. Missionary - Ward or Activities Committee Specialist), but the only way we seem to be able to use the standard callings is by transferring those positions to the "Miscellaneous" organization.
Is there a way to enter these callings with their standard HQ issued names while still keeping them in different organizations? It is rather unpleasant to preview and select specific pages to print so the Mission Leader doesn't have a huge list of callings he does not need. I know we can create a custom report to only list those within the organization, but that is frustrating when looking through multiple organizations.
