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.
Our Scribe and SPL both have the “Calendar Editor” role. They cannot take attendance, even though this was a feature introduced during the 3/16 new feature update. For the SPL, I have tried to “reapply” or “update” her “Calendar Editor” role. This did not fix her ability to take attendance.
OK, I temporarily assigned my son Calendar Editor privileges, and he couldn’t take attendance in Scoutbook, either. He doesn’t see the Attendance button.
Update? We use attendance to trigger campout charges and camping night entries by advancement coordinator and treasurer. Having the Scouts do this is key.
We have no updates on this. Scouts can take attendance via the Scouting App. I recommend using the app until we have a definitive answer and possibly a fix.
It is also broken in the Scouting App. Our SPL cannot take attendance their either. Our Scribe says she can’t as well (I have not witnessed her try, though).
Matt, can you provide the BSA Member ID for your SPL? It is the first question the app developers will ask me when I tell them we have a report of SPLs not being able to take attendance.
