It would be nice to be able to select "contact Prior Bishop" in a record so that if it does get pulled the new Bishop would be informed. I believe the only time that a record can show contact prior Bishop is if I am moving the record, not if it is pulled by another unit.

How does one get this information? I have not seen it anywhere?
The wikiis our friendly repository of handy information. See the article Move restriction.

But as you stated yourself. MLS provides the notification that a record has been pulled. The old biship then just needs to contact the new bishop.
