Key Indicator members submitting appears high

As High Councilor assigned to temple and family history, I work with the units on the number of members submitting temple ordinances. I have noticed that the Key Indicator percentage matches the FHAR count/total just fine. However, in working with a small branch, the percentage does not appear to match reality. The branch believes that the percentage is about twice what it should be, especially at the year end.

Our conjecture is that the number reported is the SUMMATION of unique submitters BY MONTH for the last 12 months, rather than just the unique submitters for the last 12 months.

Since it is such a small branch having just a few submitters, is there any way for us to verify the calculations by obtaining a report by individual submitter for one 12 month period?

The Church has not chosen to make that information available to wards and stakes. If your stake president feels it is necessary to have the information, he would probably need to make the call to see if it would be made available to him.
