When using the FamilySearch Person Tool in RM10, there are times when I see LDS ordinances data listed on the Official FamilySearch Ordinances side of the screen, but a “Not On File” value on the Unofficial Ordinances on the RM side. Some records do show complete data on both sides, others only on the Official side.
It should show “Not in file” on the RM side if you haven’t added the ordinances yet.
Hello Renee,
Thank you for your reply. I would think if the completed ordinances, including dates, are showing up on the Official FS side, why wouldn’t RM automatically pull them into the RM Unofficial side instead of showing “Not In File?”
Also, why does “Reserved” in the Official FS side show us as “Not In File” on the Unofficial RM side. Wouldn’t it make sense to have Reserved appear in the RM data also?
How did you import the person or the file. If it was an import with an LDS account it would automatically include the ordinances. If the person was already in the RM database without ordinances then it won’t automatically add them. You have to manually select them and add to RM. Some ordinances don’t show up until after a merge has happened on FamilySearch. So the dates aren’t necessarily a clue as to when they appeared on the FS side.
Reserved is a status so it doesn’t import into RM. RM only has old TempleReady statuses that don’t include reserved, which I wouldn’t recommend using them.
Thank you again Renee. The data was imported from Legacy 10. I “created” a new RM database file using RM’s import from Legacy Family Tree v. 3-10.
Ordinances should have come over. Have you checked if they are there?
