Updating callings on LCR

#1

Post by zaneclark »

We were just changed over and it looks exciting, but before I send out an announcement to leaders, I have a question: can leaders make changes to callings and releases or is that still only a clerk or bishopric function?

If you select Melchizedek priesthood or auxiliary presidency on the access table it says they can edit member calling information and class assignments. They can enter calls and releases.

Thank you! I missed that! It's going to be interesting watching how the leaders handle this new function.

Now that I found that aux and Priesthood leaders can update callings and releases, should I be nervous about this?

I would hope that just because the leaders can enter the callings that the clerks don't let go of things and assume someone else will do it.

The good thing is that it seems easy to do and so if a mistake is made it can be corrected without much fuss.

I'd hope your leaders know how to follow instructions.

So the remaining part is to make sure those leaders understand the proper process for callings and releases and what approvals they may need to get.
