This was turned off in preparation to move to a higher performing back end called Tree Foundation (TF). The TF database will not have any of these patron submitted ordinances and will only consider the ordinances from membership and the official temple database. So if a sealing was done, but no longer shows in the tree, then it means that the official ordinance was not properly recorded in the temple or membership databases and should be performed again to ensure that we have an official temple ordinance record backing every ordinance in the tree or a request sent to membership to fix a born in covenant flag.FamilySearch Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16123888681922262492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3793782800729950147.post-5645137013737833782016-03-27T06:24:28.882-07:002016-03-27T06:24:28.882-07:00Thanks for the very thoughtful and considerate com...Thanks for the very thoughtful and considerate comment.

It seems to be a mistake to pass those questions up, to follow the spurious pedigree back in time, and rush to do the temple work for everyone (or to share those masses of names with the temple) without leaving any for the rest of their descendants who come upon these names a second too slow to reserve them to enrich our own temple experience.<br /><br />We must make some effort to straighten out our pedigree lines and document them to show our love for our ancestors and all their descendants, even living ones who may also wish to participate in this labor of love.Fern RLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11622962505352006809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3793782800729950147.post-37452298270534964852016-03-26T17:46:54.747-07:002016-03-26T17:46:54.747-07:00Heeeeereee we go again!

These are children that are the children of members who were married in the Temples. The children would not have been marked as completed because they were marked previously as BIC. There are no duplicates here that can be detected by the system. Whatever you were expecting is not what actually has happened. Thanks for your comment however, it will make us look further than we otherwise would have. I am seeing dozens of new green Temple icons with just my first looks.

One will need to check each person to see if there are any duplicate records that need to be merged and perhaps may need to complete any ordinances that were not really previously verified ordinances. You could make a case if you have documentation of a completed ordinance from either a membership record or temple record.<br /><br />So far I have seen one baptism and confirmation that have showed up "green temple" - before listed as completed.<br /><br />If the ordinances were done before a certain date, the temple file may list them as "completed". Those will still show in Family Tree as completed (without a date) because they came from the temple file that way. However if they were entered in nFS or earlier, by a patron as "completed", they are considered not complete and are showing up for cleaning up, merging, and submitting for ordinance completion.<br /><br />At least this is how I understand what has taken place. I was expecting this about 10 days ago.Amy Archibaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15068623403901287165noreply@blogger.com
