YM,YW January Advancement!

With the just announced policy, it would be great to see a list of those YM and YW who will be eligible for ordination or advancement each January. Right now, there might be some work around to this through the birthday list, etc., but a dedicated list would nice. In the meantime, I will probably create a list in Custom Reports, which I will have to do on the clerks computer since membership clerks do not have this function in LCR.

I'm sure the programmers are enjoying their new "Christmas present" and are now working just as busy as Santa's elves.

Oh, we've been working on it for a while now, it has lots of interesting side effects that no doubt will surface of the next while that will keep us busy

You won't see this for this January, but we are aware of the need.

I did figure out a way to get the names, but it seems too simple, so I probably missed something. I went to the Birthday list under Reports, clicked on Age to arrange the list by birthdate, clicked to show 12 months, and then selected all those born in 2007, 2005, and 2003. I think this gave me the appropriate list. Did I miss something?

I used the Member List, not the Birthday List...sorry about that....

Thank you for describing how you got the list. Quite helpful!

I'm not sure if this is the correct spot to post this but I'm having issues with the Attendance Rolls having the YW in their correct classes with the new advancement. I have girls showing up on 2 class rolls (ie: Beehives and Mia Maids, or Mia Maids and Laurels) when they should be on the next class only. I will probably have to whiteout the extra names for now but I just wanted to point out the error.

I'm seeing the same thing. It looks like it's happening for the YM as well. The best place to report this is using the Feedback link at the bottom of LCR. It's possible that a developer may see the report here but unless they are already working on it, it helps if they have an actual problem ticket and that happens via Feedback. You may or may not get a response but it will get to the right place. I'm going to send Feedback myself since I'm seeing it too.

I can reproduce it. I'll have the QA verify it and get it logged in the morning.

They've been working on fixing this today.

It looks like my previous issue was solved but now I have a YW that isn't listed on any attendance roll (should be on Mia Maid roll) evn though she's on the correct class list. I sent a message through feedback and the response was not even remotely helpful and didn't address the issue. (And as a side note, the attendance rolls still have all the weekly Sunday dates instead of the new 2nd and 4th Sunday dates. Is that going to be updated?)

I looked at your Mia Maid class list and roll. There are eight young women on each list. I'm assuming that "(should be on Mia Maid roll) even though she's on the correct class list" means that you are seeing her on the Mia Maid class list but not on the roll, so I'm not sure what is broken (or if it is still broken).

We're aware of weekly dates vs. second and fourth Sunday, but it isn't at the top of the list.

When I printed rolls out on the 8th, she was not included. Today, she is. Not sure what got fixed, just glad it did.

Yep. The new attendance roll format is available in LCR.
