Preparing Names for the Temple
Before you can take a name to the temple, you must first reserve those names from the person's FamilySearch Person Tools screen. This simply tells FamilySearch that you intend to do that person's ordinances so that other people aren't trying to do it at the same time. Each person you reserve is added to your Temple tab on FamilySearch.
To begin preparing your reserved names for temple work, open FamilySearch Central and then click the Temple Work button. RootsMagic will take you directly to FamilySearch where you can see your reserved names, print your cards, or share your reserved names with family or friends.
