Updated Ordinance Reservation is great, but...

Jim Greene responded in another thread about the new system

you certainly should be able to share just a sealing to parent ordinance without sharing the others. I just went in and checked and it allowed me to. Please include screen shots of each step you are taking so that we can try to figure out why it is not working for you.

I did some testing and I came up with a problem. This is in regard to G7TN-XH7 (not a relative). Everything but SP had been reserved with the temple system.

The system required me to reserve all the names. I did that.

Next, I pressed share ... with the temple and yes, it allowed me to share just the one name.

I wanted to unreserve the others, but it was all or nothing. Unreserving all of them also reserved the temple-shared name. I didn't want that.

If there is a problem with the new system, it existed before and that is the "all or nothing" approach to reserving and unreserving names.

This all or nothing issue needs to be resolved because at the present time, I cannot reserve and share just one ordinance. I have a lot of SP's showing up once I add the parents to a person's record.

Tom Huber said: I am now the one who shared the ordinances, not the original person who shared them. It may effectively remove those from that user's temple shared list (but I don't know). FamilySearch needs to do a bit more testing.

Thanks for raising the question.

Tom Huber said: Correction, I spoke before I tested this.

The already shared ordinances are now reserved for me to print and take to the temple (90 day time limit). Only the one ordinance (SP) is shared with the temple.

I believe the names will still appear on the original user who shared them, but they will also appear on My Reservations list, which will time out in 90 days.
