Welcome! This forum has a treasure trove of great info – Scouters helping Scouters! Just a heads up, though - all content, information, and opinions shared on this forum are those of the author, not the BSA.
I am scout master for Troop 10F (Pacific Skyline Council) I am trying to use the Scoutbook plus quick entry, Scout leadership page to update our youth leadership roles. When I hit Save Change after any change, I get the following error
“You cannot add the same position that you are expiring on the same day. Please wait 24 hours and add the position again.”
I have tried waiting 24 hours and still get the same error .
just make sure a position you end does not have the same date as a started. So if you end a ASPL position on 7/1/26 - you cannot start a new ASPL position on 7/1/26. Start the new one with date 7/2/26.
And if it is the same position - why are you even ending it?
The positions do not have the same end and start date. The youth are changing positions after an election. There are no positions which are the same for a given youth. For example, I am adding Troop Guide to a youth who did not have a previous position and I am still getting the error.
yeah that makes no sense - you can try an incognito window but I do not think it will help. It works fine for me on scouts like that. What happens if you try to add from the Scout Profile, instead of quick entry?
I can do it one by one in each scoutbok profile without getting the error. I wanted to use the quick entry to make the process easier. Can someone report this bug and ask that it get fixed?
