My troop has a lone scout visiting for a couple of months. I would like to get access to his Scoutbook account to make entries. Currently, the council he is registered in does the Scoutbook entries. Is there a way to be added to his account? Thanks.

Scoutbook and Internet Advancement do not support Lone Scouting.

@RobertSellers1  
The lone scout’s record is their Scouts BSA handbook (and merit badge cards).

The Lone Scout BSA Friend and Counselor signs (with their initials) in leader initial and date column.

For confirmation of rank advancements I suspect you will need to contact the lone scout’s council’s registrar. You have the option of adding the lone scout to your unit.
