I have a former scout and his connected parents in a disapproved den (they are technically still on our roster until the end of the year). I do NOT want them to receive calendar invitations, since they’ve indicated they will no longer be participating in Scouting. How do I “turn them off” so they aren’t automatically included in future calendar invitations, without removing them from our records completely by way of an end-date or broken connections?

From the scout’s page, scroll down and click on their membership. Then, click on the current membership in your unit, uncheck the position approved box, and click update. This won’t automatically remove them from existing events, but it will keep them from being invited to newly created events.

To easily update all events, I suggest using the feature assistant extension.
