We would like the ability to put in the ABC expiration dates into Scoutbook and have the system automate an email to the scout a month in advanced of their expiration date. We don’t keep a DB of the parents email addresses as they can edit these in SB and so it would be easier to have the system automate this instead of us keeping a separate DB of this information

Hi, @MichelleHoyt,

The information can already be stored in Scoutbook in the individual profiles. There is a report that can be pulled using the Roster Builder Manager under My Dashboard → My Units → Unit Reports.

There is not currently a way to automate the emails in Scoutbook, AFAIK. However, a leader who can generate the report can also send the reminder emails via Scoutbook through the messaging interface.

That’s what we do. All the Med Form dates are listed in Scoutbook, and we have a saved report that just has names and expiration dates.
