Could anyone here help me by describing how to generate a report of Scouts in my Troop who need a PoR for rank advancement, or by pointing me to a reference that explains it?
Thanks!
@BenjaminHeavner first as a Scoutmaster I can say that is not my job - that is the Scouts to keep track of.
You could make a report with these settings and basically get that IN the report
@BenjaminHeavner Here is how you can create a custom youth leadership report in Scoutbook Plus:
Reports → Custom Reports → New Custom Roster Report
- Start by selecting your Scouts.
- Then select your desired options under “Positions”.
Please note that the report will include all current leadership positions, even those that do not qualify as a POR for Star / Life / Eagle. If you want to see past leadership positions, you will need to look at the Scout’s profile or run the Scouts BSA History Report.
Thanks, but I kind of want the opposite of that - a list of scouts who have NOT satisfied the leadership position requirement for rank advancement.
Sure, the context here is that as Scoutmaster, I’d like to hand such a list to our Senior Patrol Leader for their information and consideration to prepare to discuss PoR appointments with me - which IS my job.
There are no exclusion reports down to the requirement level like that @BenjaminHeavner. You could run the list above, and isolate to Star/Life/Eagle - as that would be all you needed.
But again, in my troop it is the scouts job to go to me or the SPL and say “I need a POR for my next rank”.
Though you could make the above report > get the CSV > and rip out what you want to hand off
Too bad. It’d be a wonderful feature if the reports allowed more Boolean logic, like NOT… export to a spreadsheet it is!
