Importance of signatures and forms.
Posted: Tue Feb 05, 2013 6:00 pm
I am a new clerk. I have noticed our ward has not been using the forms provided in MLS as a part of their ordinance record keeping workflow. I am planning on integrating the use of these forms into our wards workflow in an attempt to create better record keeping habits.
The baptism and baby blessing forms both have a place where the person authorizes the church to create a record. I am just curious as to everyone's opinion on how important obtaining this signature is. Also a lot of the forms have a place where the bishop should sign the form, is this of any importance. Please note that I am working on incorporating the use of these forms with signatures into the words workflow: I am primarily interested in your opinion about the use these forms in your workflow and how important are they from the Church's perspective.
