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.
Hello, I am a Troop Admin & the Adv Chair for my unit. We recently assigned all our girls to new patrols, and last night I made the changes official in the membership tab of Scoutbook. Things went OK for the most part, but not entirely.
For one girl, I neglected to click the “reassign patrol” button at the top of her membership page AS MY VERY FIRST STEP, and instead, I typed in an end date on her existing patrol membership. She immediately and completely disappeared from our roster, both in SB and in IA.
The other bug has to do when I did things in the order that appears correct. Which is that I clicked reassign patrol first, then I went back and corrected the end date of her membership in the old patrol, and the beginning date of the new patrol. When I did things in this order, I would immediately lose connection to the scout. This was disconcerting! Then I poked around and realized that if I would simply open “connection manager” and then close “connection manager”, my connection to the scout was automatically restored, without me doing anything else. This seems a bug to me as well.
All that aside, please help me get our missing scout back into our roster!
Thank you, Brian Heflin
That makes sense with the one girl. But with all the other girls, I lost connection after reassigning, and then got it back simply by opening and closing connection manager. That seems a bug.
