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 attempting to create a Multiple application with a Pack (3034) using an existing Troop application. I click Multiple on my application, find the unit, then click Select. Nothing in the page changes, the Unit Search dialog remains visible, I do observe a javascript error in the browser console which I’ll include below.

Information for developers:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading ‘gender’)
at Object.onClick (UnitTransferModal.jsx:64:57)

Code at UnitTransferModal.jsx:64:
if (!isYouthGenderEligibleForTransfer(userDetails.gender, record.acceptGender)) {
I examined the userDetails object at runtime and it appears to be null.
It’s not a council issue. Our council allows them and always has. The “Select” button in the “My Application” feature in my.scouting is currently not working for adult applications right now. We are able to transfer/multiple register adults via other online means just fine.
Please ask your Council to open a ticket with National Member Care and BSA IT to get this fixed. This is the only way for volunteers to report issues with my.scouting.org tools.
I was able to find a work around. That Select button continued to not work but starting from beascout.org, finding the unit, then clicking Apply Now, and I was able to do a very quick application that was properly handled as Multiple. It is likely useful to already be logged into my.scouting.org. Hope this helps others.
Had this same issue with 2 adults attempting multiple today. Workaround suggested WORKED! (going to Apply Now from beascout.org) We attempted to get council to open a ticket, but we were told to just use a paper app.
The BSA discontinued direct volunteer support during the massive layoffs quite some time ago. At that time, they only retained direct support to council professionals. Thus, other than the SUAC volunteers here in the discussion groups, the only way for volunteers to get support is via their council professionals.
