Hey all,
I am the ward clerk for a brand new ward that was just created. When I click on "enter donations" in MLS, I get a popup window with the following message:
"the MLS finance functionality is temporarily unavailable while Church headquarters switches your unit to the new finance system.
...
you will be notified when the finance system is again available"
Has anyone else ever gotten this message and did it resolve itself? Thanks!
Strange message about Finances; Unable to use finances

When you say "just created" as in this Sunday will be your first Sunday to use MLS? I'm thinking that the setup of your ward may not be complete. It's too late to do anything about it now. If it doesn't resolve itself by Monday, you can call Local Unit Support to see if there's a problem.

I think that's something different. What you describe sound like the security feature that comes into play if you have to do a massive rebuild or move computers and it affects the communication. I'd expect security it to already be "reset" for a brand-new unit.
