Trying to add 12516902 as a Den Leader and I get this error. He is a current parent of one of our Scouts, and he was a Den Leader for our Bear Den this past year. He seems to have just dropped off of our roster. When I try to add him back on, I get this error. Any thoughts on how I fix this? Thanks!

@MichaelHobson1 - my first thought is that this person was never registered with your unit. If you check [my.scouting.org](http://my.scouting.org) are they they there… most likely not. Adult Application approved by the unit COR and submitted to council please.

This leader’s registration ended on 12/31/2020. Scoutbook only allows adding registered leaders to a roster. You will need to register the adult then he will be added to Scoutbook the day after he is added to your official roster.

Thank you - that makes perfect sense as he was out on deployment for a long while.
