How can a Stake Clerk "Pull" funds from local unit budgets?

I am currently serving as the Stake Clerk and my presidency has asked if I would work with the units to submit a certain amount of budget carry over from last year to help fund a youth super activity that the stake is putting on this summer.

The units are all on board, but instead of each of them writing a check or doing an EFT transfer, can I just pull the funds from the Stake side?

If there is a procedure for this, I'd be happy to look at it. Otherwise, I'll just contact the unit clerk to initiate the transfer on their end.

Thank you!!

When I served as ward clerk, it was not uncommon for the stake president to email the bishop and ask the unit to transfer x-amount of funds back to the stake (or to another unit in the case of excess ward missionary funds). I don't know if the stake can "pull" the funds back as I have never served as a stake clerk.

No. The stake cannot initiate the process. But it's easy enough for the unit to do a transfer to the stake in LCR.
