How to delete an empty patrol?

I searched for this “how to” and could find nothing newer than 5 years ago that is related.
I have a very old patrol in both Scoutbook Legacy and Scoutbook Plus. I’ve searched in both “sides” of Scoutbook, and cannot find any way to delete that patrol. That patrol shows it is empty, there are no leaders and no scouts listed in that patrol.

I am a Troop Admin, and the Troop COR. (key 3).
(Council 421 - Troop 200 B, Patrol Name Jackalope)

In Scoutbook Plus, I cannot select this patrol, because it’s empty - therefore “Group/Edit Patrol” does nothing.

In Scoutbook Legacy, I select my Troop, then select the Patrol I want to delete. Nothing shows to edit or delete.

Please advise how to do this in 2025! Which Scoutbook should be used?

@GanttEdmiston an Admin can go to SB+ > organize Roster by patrols > next to the Edit Patrol there is a Trashcan Can for delete.

I simply do not see what you referenced. “Organize Roster by patrols?” Attached is a screenshot of what I see, what am I missing? Note: I cannot “select” Jackalope (the patrol I want deleted)

@GanttEdmiston our tool is down - but it looks like you are not an admin for Troop 200

Yeah, I suspected that. I am the COR (Charter Org Rep). Many years back, I somehow got associated with Troop 0226 in my District, and I cannot figure out how to disconnect that association.

How do I get configured as Troop Admin in Scoutbook Plus? For my Troop?

By the way, I am also a Scoutbook Council Admin, not sure if that’s confusing anything.

Either Council would need to sync your account to Scoutbook with VST or the unit would need to give you Admin in Legacy SB

@GanttEdmiston ook tool is back up - you look setup ok - I can setup a screenshare to take a look if you want

I am home now, lemme know if you are still available for screen share. thanks

@DonovanMcNeil Well… never mind! Went to the store, two hours later, I cleared my Chrome Cookies and Cache… logged back in, and VOILA! There is now a Trash can next to the Jackalope patrol. I clicked the can, and it’s gone.

Miracle cure?! No idea.

The problem has been resolved.
