calling listed in Mls not showing on lds.org or lds tools

A 50 yr old elder was added & associated to the high priests in mls. Then he received & sustained & was set apart a calling as the hpg asst Secretary. I added him to the calling . It's showing up in mls just fine but in lds.org or lds tools . It's not showing him w his new calling. It's been over 48 hrs . Ideas ?

Was he ordained a high priest? If he hasn't been ordained a high priest, the change will be rejected when it is processed by CDOL. Sounds like I need to check the MLS rules.

Handbook 2: 7.3.3: "With the bishop’s approval, leaders in the elders quorum and high priests group may call and set apart assistant secretaries to help with these responsibilities. Prospective elders may be called to serve as assistant secretaries."

I don't see anything requiring the HP assistant secretary to be a HP. The secretary, yes. But the above quote is the only thing I can find on the assistant.

The current rule in CDOL requires that he be ordained a high priest. We've logged it to be reviewed.

Yes according to the hand book . All is in order. So how do I get this to show up in lds.org & lds tools ? It shows in mls just fine.

Short of ordaining him a HP, I think you need to wait for the review.

Realistically. How long will that probably take ??

I don't know. The process has started, but I don't know when we'll get a final response.

This takes awhile? Still not showing up

Yes, the process takes a while. I don't know when we'll get a final response.

The calling isn't going to show up even if the requirement is changed. When the change was submitted, CDOL rejected the request because it didn't meet the requirements for that position. It's not a matter of the rules changing and the calling appearing. As far as CDOL is concerned, it was invalid and the record no longer exists. If you request a calling data refresh (on the file menu in MLS), you will see it disappear. MLS will automatically request a calling refresh on a regular basis to keep itself in sync with CDOL, so it will eventually disappear out of MLS on its own.

It seems unclear how high up this has to go.

It may get put on a meeting agenda, but it's questionable if the meeting will work it's way to that item. The meeting has a time limit and the agenda is frequently longer than the available time, and there are many other pressing matters to deal with. So it sits on the weekly agenda until it finally floats to the top. Even employees have no idea how many weeks it will take to get there. It all depends on how much time is spend discussing the items before it.

IOW, you could get an answer next week or four months from now. At least that was my experience quite some years ago on another matter (approval of the original LUWS). But I'm guessing the process hasn't changed much.
