I need help with a scout who does not have advancement sync turned on. I am committee chair, but don’t have the ability to add his member ID number to his profile as the online troubleshooting suggested. I think my own permissions are messed up and I can’t even “agree” to be added to troop roster after being on the troop roster.
Yes, I called council office. They say “looks good to me” but don’t have the skills/knowledge to troubleshoot further.
Bottom line - I need to work through this with someone - can you help? Who can I call?
In Scoutbook > go to Scout Profile > Edit Profile > get Scoutbook User ID > and post that here and we can look
@AaronSpak You are registered as a Committee Chair, but your Committee Chair and Troop Admin roles are not approved in Scoutbook.
I have requested a position sync to approve them or you can ask another Troop Admin in your troop to approve your Committee Chair and Troop Admin roles.
OK I got the MID for the Scout in Scoutbook now - you may need to unapprove > Save > reapprove his membership for it to sync
It looks like it worked! Thank you.
Hello I am hoping Donovan McNeil you might be able to help me. I am the Adult Committee Chair for Troop 1533 in Fairfax VA. I have a duplicated scout.
His name is [youth name removed by Moderator for privacy]. His BSA ID is identical for both records in ScoutBook, but he still has two records.
One with UserID: 3326516
One with UserID: 1086929
Pretty much all other information is identical.
Any thoughts on how to resolve.
I am sorry I didn’t see how to start a new thread.
@GeoffreyMarin this is repaired for now - but make a note to remind me about the Scout in 4 weeks please to see if another tool is in place yet to repair one thing
OK, thanks for your help!
FYI, from any forum, such as Using Scoutbook - Scouting Forums, in the upper right corner there is a New Topic button that looks like this:

It looks the same on my android device, but might just be the “+” on some mobile devices.
