Welcome! This forum has a treasure trove of great info – Scouters helping Scouters! Just a heads up, though - all content, information, and opinions shared on this forum are those of the author, not the BSA.
I have a COR who shows in SB as COR and Unit Admin(by the way have both unapproved and reapproved both position) He seems to have random scouts who he has only edit advancement on. Upon investigation it seems these scouts are also connected to him as a MB counselor. which seems to be trumping his admin status. I have tried to update in connection manager with no success also did a position update from VST
I just checked my troop and don’t see this issue with unit admins who have an MBC connection.
When did they last try resetting their admin position? There was an issue with some admin positions that was fixed yesterday morning. It might be worth another try.
