Print Expiration Date on Ordinance Card

C. Michael Flynn

Currently, the date each ordinance card is printed is on each ordinance card. I recommend the expiration date of the reservation be printed on each ordinance card. The expiration date seems to be more important information for each user than the date the card was printed. If you do not want to change the system default, users should be given the option to select which date to print on each ordinance card.

There is an article in Get Help entitled "Do family name cards expire"

The article states the following.

The family name card that you print for the temple does not expire, even if the reservation on FamilySearch does.

If you've had a family name card for more than a few weeks, please check Family Tree to confirm that the ancestor still needs the ordinance performed. The ordinance could have been shared with the temple, or someone else may have reserved it.

If so, you may simply destroy the family name card. It is no longer needed.
