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.
An issue that caused the Payment Log summary to disappear when viewed on narrow browser windows has been fixed.
New Features
Merit Badge Counselors
As previously announced, any Merit Badge Counselors (MBCs) not registered with their Council in ScoutNET have been removed from Scoutbook. Any Merit Badge Counselor connections to these adults have been removed.
All MBCs have been removed from Unit Rosters. To determine if any leaders or parents in your unit are MBCs, use Roster Builder and select the Merit Badge Counselor option.
MBCs with Merit Badges not validated by the Council via ScoutNET entry or MBC file upload to Scoutbook have been removed from remaining MBCs. Any MBC connection to a Scout where the Merit Badge was removed from the MBC’s list has been removed.
MBCs can now set their Listing Preference to work with any Scout in the BSA (Worldwide). Go to My Dashboard → Administration → My Account → My Positions → Merit Badge Counselor to change your listing preference.
Anyone who believes they are a registered MBC but is no longer listed in Scoutbook, or has an incorrect Merit Badge list needs to contact their Council.
