To all who have concerns for and against nFS and FT "FOR" features. I find FT to be problemic in one aspect - requiring printing of cards for ENTIRE process while nFS allow you to select individually as needed for each ordinance. Like I can select a batch just for baptisms for the youths to do while select another batch of infant sealings (under 8 years old) and another batch for initiatories and NOT have to worry about lost cards. I don't see how it can be done in FT (there isn't!) W. David Samuelsen
I still have my problem with nfs and the FOR's and cannot clear ANY Names for temple work. I guess they are still working on it. They Told me they would call or email when I could work again. I have tried FT this a.m. and find it to be as cumbersome or more so Than nfs. Can you display more than one name at a time on the Ordinance section in FT--also the Window is so small for those of us olders with bad eyesight. It seems to me a simple spreadsheet, i.e. excel could easily put this in order. Just a list of people and you could color it up or fix it much easier Than the things we have in both of these programs. Steve Kelsey
David, I guess that you are correct about not being able to choose only part of the ordinance work to be done in FS FamilyTree. It is not a problem for me because I just take the FOR with me to the Temple when I go to the office and have the B&C done for females. Then I do the Int & End myself. For the males, I just leave the card there for the work to be done and move it the days that I work in the office. The problem that the Sister was explaining was that of needing to select an individual without the whole family tagging along. That problem can be solved in FT.
