Building Scheduler - out of unit

How do we assign an out-of-unit member (YSA Stake) as a building scheduler? It appears that only in-unit members show up in the list of possible building schedulers.

This was an old problem, but I'm surprised it's not fixed. Have you confirmed that this person is properly set up as a out-of-unit leader and they show up with their calling in the directory?

Yes. I can confirm that no YSA stake leaders, who are all set up properly as out-of-unit leaders show up in the list of members who can be added as building schedulers,

I can confirm that none of the out-of-unit stake leaders in my YSA stake can be added as building schedulers, either. We don't use the building schedulers function, so I never noticed the problem before...

In our YSA stake, we cannot assign a building scheduler who is out-of-unit to our calendars. The drop-list of available members does not show any out-of-unit members at all.

Only members with their record in a unit of the stake can be assigned the Calendar building scheduler role. The programmers are aware of the need for units such as young single adult stakes to be able to use out of unit members to fill the position. They are working on a solution.

Don't let someone on this board who isn't a church employee with direct involvement in coding the app or anyone else tell you 'it's on the list' because, there are literally thousands of things on the list and have been for many years.

Find a work around - the rest of us have been waiting 2 years already (as it was a deficiency identified almost immediately as it was rolled out).

John,

Thanks for your candid reply. One reason I surfaced this here is there is no "Feedback" link that I can find on Calendar. I've been told that the developers don't consistently monitor these forums, but that "Feedback" goes directly to them.

Thanks.

Moderator note: The threads have been merged as they cover the same topic. The "Feedback" area is for feedback on tech.lds.org. Feedback for the calendar can be submitted from the main lds.org page.

You can use any "Feedback" link on lds.org to provide feedback. They all go to the same place. So if a page doesn't have a link, just to to the lds.org home page and use the link there.

It does seem to be all very confusing - it makes me wonder if it is on purpose. I've certainly had feedback items responded to in batches over the years... meaning.. I send in feedback, then 6 months to a year later I receive a thank-you for my feedback.... but I get like 5 or 6 of them at the same time.

During Beta periods of apps the end user seems to have higher-priority access to the dev team, but those times a few and far between.

I think it's a case of too few hands.
