I’m no longer able to enter bulk rank requirements for scouts that i previously had full control to their profiles for. In scoutbook plus, I cannot view their profile and if i try bulk entry, when I select the rank it shows all scouts as ineligible for selection even if they don’t have up to that rank completed or the rank requirement that I’m trying to update.

My permissions were reset in connections manager by the scoutmaster but I still cant’ view profile or enter any rank requirements.

I am fully trained and registered as an assistant scout master, my safeguarding youth and hazardous weather are up to date.

@SamanthaAldridge Patrol admin is a dead positions. I suggest your Key3 Unit leaders look at these 2 links and take actions.

A major focus of the migration to Scoutbook Plus is to have positions mirror the positions shown in My.Scouting to ensure positions were reflected accurately in both platforms. The main purpose it to honor the guidance of our charter organizations and the positions they approve. Therefore, **Scoutbook Plus does not** use Legacy Scoutbook positions. Registered positions are used to provide base permissions. Some additional permissions can be added by the unit, however, there are restrictions on what can be given. See the updated [Scoutbook\_Permissions.pdf](https://discussions.scouting.org/uploads/short-url/qngvgDJg53aMPd2dxH2PlfAHlEK.pdf)and the [Scoutbook Plus permissions video](https://youtu.be/owdWH062XFc) for more details.
