When I click the PDF link to download the advancement history report for a single scout, it downloads ALL the scouts into 1 report. How can I fix this? I only need a report for 1 scout. It would be ok if each scout was on a separate page, however, all the scouts are mixed in together.
Please explain the path you used to access this report
@AnnaThompson1 - I am not sure I understand the issue
I think I found it in Internet Advancement – not Scoutbook.
In Internet Advancement, on the main Roster page.
Select Scout.
Run Report → Advancement History
Select All Dates.
Run Report.
Click on the red “PDF” button.

Yes! That is correct. I click on the red “PDF” button, but instead of downloading the individual advancement history report, it downloads all the scouts into 1 report. Do you know how to fix this issue?
@AnnaThompson1 - that is a unit advancement report. You may want the scoutsBSA history report. What are you looking to do s that may help bring you to the right report
@Stephen_Hornak - I am looking to download just one individual’s advancement history report.
I did the exact steps that @JenniferOlinger mentioned:
In Internet Advancement, on the main Roster page.
Select Scout.
Run Report → Advancement History
Select All Dates.
Run Report. (I see the individual scout’s report)
Click on the red “PDF” button. (Now I see the entire unit advancement report)
Might this be a settings issue? How can I correct this?
Try going to Scoutbook (scoutbook.scouting.org) instead of Internet Advancement, navigating to the Scout’s page, selecting Reports then Scouts BSA History Report. IA may be preventing you from running the report because you are not Key 3 or a Key 3 Delegate.

Hi! I was able to generate the individual report using the steps you mentioned. Thank you for that! Do you know how I can change the report to not show all the sign-off dates for each rank?
Also, in the past, I was able to generate the advancement history report through IA using the “PDF” link. I don’t know what changed, but I’ll look into it. Thanks!
@AnnaThompson1 - in IA, if you click the check box next to a scout then click run report you will be able to get the advancement history for that selected scout.
Thank you Stephen. That is what I did, but it still downloads the entire unit. 
Previously, I was able to generate the report just fine, but now something has changed. There was an update to IA not long ago. I wonder if that changed the PDF link. If so, I’m not sure how to get it fixed.
@AnnaThompson1 - I just did that and I only got info for the selected scout… there has to be a check in the check box next to the name
I checked an individual scout - clicked Run Report - clicked Advancement History and clicked All Dates in the pop-up box. As you can see, it is preparing a report for just the ONE scout I chose.
When I click RUN REPORT, I can see the individual scout’s advancement history. But when I click the red PDF link to download the report, I suddenly get the entire unit.
@AnnaThompson1 - ah… I get that same result. What you can do is within the browser is print to pdf from the presented correct report.
Oh my gosh! You’re a genius! I don’t know why I didn’t think of that earlier!!
THANK YOU!!
The developers are aware of the PDF issue.
