I am trying to transfer a Webelo into our Scout Troop. I entered his BSA number and Scoutbook can’t find him. What do I do? Also, who is supposed to transfer the scout, the Pack Unit Leader or the new Troop? Thanks, Judy

If Scoutbook cannot find the Scout, then it’s likely that the BSA number does not match. If you would like to post it here (no names, please) we can take a look. Scoutbook can only make unofficial transfers. One way to transfer a Scout is for one of the pack leaders or a parent to add a connectio…

Dear Jennifer, Thank you for your reply! The Pack leader has transferred the scout to the roster in Scoutmaster , but the scout is not showing up on our roster in my.scouting.org . Will it take 24-48 hours for the scout to show up on the roster in my.scouting.org ? Thanks! Judy

Thanks! I wasn’t sure why there were two sites doing the same thing. Also, do I have to first send out an invitation, or can the pack leader transfer the scout without one?

The push-transfer should work without an invite, although I haven’t tried it yet.

After a pack leader logs in at my.scouting, and goes to the pack Roster tool, they will see something that looks similar to this (except it will be the Cub Scout version): [Roster tool in my Scouting] The Scoutmaster, one of the other troop Key 3, or a Key 3 Delegate will need to accept at my.sco…

@JudithMroski-Gonzale not sure what you are talking about - the pack can transfer the Scout into another unit using Roster in my.scouting.org > then the receiving unit has to accept the scout in Application Manager at my.scouting.org
