Scoutbook now pushes me into internet advancement, and whether you use IA or Scoutbook Plus it doesn’t work. It’s nuts. How has this system been in development for this long and still doesn’t actually work when it’s actually needed?
@RobertSchenck1 - could you be more specific on what is not working?
Marking an adventure as complete for a cub scout.
The basic function does not work right now.
@RobertSchenck1 - ok… what adventure, level of den… ? Your role in the upper right in SB+ ? Perhaps some screen shots ?
There are several known issues that the developers are working on. I have some questions to help narrow down the problem you are seeing.
- Is this your child? There is a known issue where parents that are den leaders are not able to approve advancement for their own child.
- Is this a new Scout? There is a known issue where using Quick Entry to complete an adventure for a new Scout may not work.
- What were you trying to do? Complete/Approve a 2024 adventure? Complete/Approve a previous version adventure?
- What is your role in the unit?
We are unable to provide assistance without details on the problem.

@RobertSchenck1 - are you still having trouble
Do you know when the developers will address the issue of Parents as Den Leaders not being able to approve advancements for their own child? With summer and day camp activities beginning soon it would be nice to be able to sign off on the adventures and summertime activities for all the scouts in the den. Thanks.
We are not able to say when any specific fix will be released. Watch the change log forum for an announcement.
Maybe similar problem. I’m trying to import Troop summer camp merit badge completions into Scoutbook. I know I was able to easily do this last summer. The file comes from Tentaroo as a csv file, but it looks like Scoutbook is only taking txt files now - is that correct?
The csv for summer camp requires the feature assistant extension and is on the troop page in scoutbook.
I am also unable to record completions of adventure requirements for my son. I am the Pack Cubmaster. The error message is “User cannot approve requirement.” Bulk entry also fails (with a slightly different error message).
I do hope this issue can be resolved soon. Everyone in the Pack who updates advancements has a son or daughter in the Pack.
This is a known issue. The developers are aware. The workaround is to get another Key 3 member or admin to enter the requirements for your Scout. When a fix is released it will be announced in the change log.
