Flag a Record on Transfer
Posted: Sat Mar 01, 2014 10:35 pm
Is it possible to flag a record so that when the record is transferred to the next ward the Bishop at the new ward receives a notification to contact the previous Bishop?

When a local priesthood leader needs to hold a membership record in their unit due to disciplinary action or another administrative purpose, the leader can place a move restriction on the record. To request a move restriction, submit a special request through MLS or contact the administrative office. Only authorized priesthood leaders can request the restriction. Once move restriction is no longer needed, only unit leaders can remove it, and then, only by calling the administrative office directly.
When a record with a restriction is requested, a letter is sent from the administrative office to the leader who placed the hold. The letter contains the contact information of the unit requesting the record. The leader has 30 days to return the letter or contact the administrative office. If no contact is made, the restriction is released and the record is moved to the new unit.
Note that the wiki is somewhat out of date. You can now place a move restriction from Clerk Resources directly. The checkbox is on the 'Other' tab when viewing the membership record. I believe that this can be set by the bishop, ward clerk or membership clerk (but it must be authorized by the bishop regardless of who places or remove it).sbradshaw wrote:There is something called a "move restriction" that can be used for members who are in a disciplinary process.
