Jill, Do you have the cards or letters with the ordinance dates on them? If so, they can be scanned and sent in. I had a situation where someone skipped entering a year of temple books somehow. I still had the letter, 30 years later. My query sent them looking for the remainder to enter. Michele, There is no separate temple file for patrons to submit names to. Patrons select a name and choose the temple to do the work or leave it for themselves. Both types reside in the patron's temple file until they are completed. To answer the other question, I only "send" the Baptism/Confirmation on the card to the temple with the youth. The rest stay in NFS until I or someone else can do them. I create a formula or report to call them up (baptized, initiatory or endowment not completed) to finish. That way I can send an FOR as an email attachment to friends and relatives who would like to do. Yes, I have to stay on top of it, but it works well. Jerry ---------------------------------------------------------------------- it's still in my holding file because the ordinances were never recorded in nFS. Just my two cents, Jill Crandell ------------------------------ When you reserve names and have the youth in your ward do the baptisms, what do you do with the names afterwards? Do you release them to the all temples file?
