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.
Good morning. I’m trying to add a Scout that has been in my Den since December 2021. I have been purchasing his advancements out of pocket because I want him included when he earns his advancements with the rest of his Den. We have completed recharter and he’s still not added. I finally added him to ScoutBook, but for the life of me cannot figure out how to “sync” him to BSA so I can start awarding him his advancements, community hours, camp outs, and hikes.
My CC suggests that I have to got to Council’s office to get this issue resolved. I’m trying to see if there is a way I can avoid a trip because I’m working non-stop the next three weeks. If I have to, I will. I just wanted to see if someone knows a way to fix the issue without the extra trip.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

@ShawnaConley first make sure with a Key 3 that the Scout is on Roster at my.scouting.org - if there then the Scout is registered - if not they need to register. If they are on that roster you can go to the Scouts Scoutbook membership in Scoutbook and try Unapproving it and saving. Then reapprove it, that often solves it.
You can also post the scouts BSA # and we can tell you if they are registered
I can see that I haven’t officially be added as Cubmaster at my.scouting.org, which could explain some of the issues. I don’t have the scout’s BSA number, but I do have his user ID number, will that help?
Yeah, I will follow up with my Committee Chair. I was under the impression it was completed. I’ve reached out and we’ll have to go from there. Thank you!
