How do I determine how many endowed members have a current recommend?

I am doing the quarterly report for the first time and am not sure how to determine how many endowed adults have a current temple recommend. Any ideas?

Yes. Go to the Membership > More > Temple Recommends panel.
Click on the Endowed Without Recommend link.

Subtract that number (at the bottom right) from the number of endowed adults shown on the quarterly report. The difference will be the ones who have recommends.

Or you could do a fancy custom report.

Or go to Membership > Temple Recommends > Current Recommend Holders and read the number in the lower right of the page.

Ah, if only there were such a link it would be so much easier. Am I missing something?

This requires edit membership rights. It is not there for view membership only rights. Sorry.

Using the menu it is Membership > Temple Recommends > Current Recommend Holders. Using the panes it is the Membership Records pane, click "more..."; in the Temple Recommends pane, click Current Recommend Holders.

I am an admin. I do not see Current Recommend Holders as a link in the Temple Recommends pane, sorry. It makes intuitive sense that there might be such a link, especially since we are reporting that information, but I am not finding one.

On the other hand, MLS could be programmed to report that information if we kept the temple recommend information updated. [grin]

I am also not able to see "Current Recommend Holders" and I believe I have full administrative rights. So I counted how many endowed people did not have a recommend as suggested by Lajackson. But if MLS already has this information, why is it not automatically entered in the quarterly report?
