00:00:00 When an operation manager wants to change a missionaries assignment, there are a couple things that he or she can do. Log into this service missionary management system or SMMS. And then you can see the missionaries. You can look them up by name if you want. You can put in a missionaries name. This operation only has four missionaries, so we'll just click on the list of missionaries. And if you want to make a change,

00:00:30 There are a couple of things that you can do.

00:00:33 You click on the missionaries name and then if you click on the assignment for that operation,

00:00:42 then the easiest thing that you can do is either request an assignment date modification.

00:00:48 If you wanted to either request an earlier termination without ending the assignment,

00:00:53 and you could say I want to change the end date to something sooner than the current end date or later if you wanted to extend the mission.

00:01:07 And then once you request the assignment, let's say we wanted to extend this missionary a year and so we changed it to 11 October 2026

00:01:20 six and then we would hit next. At that point, it would ask you to confirm it. I'm not going

00:01:27 to really do it for this demonstration purposes. And then it would go to the state president

00:01:32 for his approval. The other thing that an operation manager can do is end an assignment. If there's

00:01:41 any reason that the assignment is not going to go forward, Missionary Sick has family affairs

00:01:47 that need to be taken care of and need to be released then you can click on end

00:01:55 assignment. Now this will end the assignment with the operation but it will

00:02:00 not end the mission. The mission over here is the service assignment end date

00:02:05 that will continue. The mission needs to be ended by the stake

00:02:10 and that's a separate thing, but the one thing that the, we've had situations where a person says,

00:02:21 I want to change my assignment to a different operation, and so they go to their operation manager,

00:02:27 the operation manager can end the assignment, and then the senior missionary coordinators can add a new assignment

00:02:34 to their mission and they can end the assignment.

00:02:37 Now ending the assignment will end the assignment

00:02:40 and there are some operations that when you end the assignment

00:02:43 it will also end the missionary's ability

00:02:45 to use the computer provisioning that's been made available

00:02:51 for that particular operation.

00:02:53 So you don't want to end the assignment until they truly have

00:02:56 finished their work with that assignment.

00:02:58 But those are the changes that can be made

00:03:00 by an operation manager.

00:03:03 .
