We have a den chief that was properly assigned to a den until his name disappeared recently. We ended up doing “add individual → add den chief” & he appeared on the overall roster. But, when we go to assign him to a specific den, we get this message “Youth already has a den chief position in the denId(s) 272157”
On his troop account, if we end his DC tenure, he drops off the Pack roster again. Not sure how to properly assign him to a den as DC & have him show on the roster.
His ID is: 136968693, last name: Carlyle
@DavidAnderson06 the DC position is a mess in SB+ - He had 2 in SB User. I ended both. Try it again.
Same issue. I tried just adding him by den edit (able to select, but errors on save).
You think I need to try the “add den chief” again?
YEs I would do the whole process
Ran through it again. Same message “already exists in den.” at least he is on the overall roster now, so some progress.
We are having a similar problem but not exactly the same. Our problem centers around Den Chiefs in the calendar events.
We have a family of 4 involved with our cub scout pack. Mom is a Committee member 136401894, Dad is an Assistant Cubmaster 5770012, the youngest (Lets call him H) is an AoL this year 137353189, and his older brother (call him N) is the Den Chief for that AoL den 136401893. All 4 appear in the SB+ Roster, but N cannot be added to calendar events. In fact, I have 5 Den Chiefs in the pack and I can’t add ANY of them to any events int he calender that I’ve tried.
I thought there was a different Calendar Section for DCs - will have to look
@BrianLittle are these Unit Calendar or Den Calendar events?
I was initially trying with Unit Calendar events (our Pack Meeting Yesterday,) but now I’ve tried a Den Calendar event too (a Webelos Den Campout in September) and it also doesn’t allow me to select an assigned Den Chief.
I’m also having the same problem as David above, only the position is denId is 310996.
We can add to roster, but none of our Den Chiefs are showing when creating a calendar event (ie calendar).
Yes this is a known reported bug - Scouting America IT does not release schedules. Watch the Scoutbook - Scoutbook Plus Change Log - Scouting Forums for an announcement of the fix.
On the similar theme of being unable to add folks to calendar events, I’m also unable to add a new cub scout to existing events. The “Future” box WAS checked when I created the event today (and continues to be checked) but the scout was not added to the den meeting, nor do they (or their parent) appear in the Pull down for “Add Individual.”
The New Scout’s ID number is: 142436090, last name Driskell
To be clear, the “future” box refers to adding individuals who are not yet members of the unit at the time the event is created. If the event was created yesterday, and the scout was on the roster at the time, they will not be added to the event irrespective of how newly they are on the roster.
I don’t know what happens in the edge case of an event being created on the same day that a scout is added to the roster since I’ve never encountered the issue.
That’s fair. The new scout was in the Pack but not assigned to the Den when I created the event. I went back and added the scout to the den and suspected they might not be included (my suspicion was correct,) but when I used the “Add Individual” pull down the scout and parent were omitted from the list.
@BrianLittle - have you done a hard refresh of your browser session ?
I tried to add a den chief, his Troop approved. I was notified via email he was approved. He doesn’t show up in Scoutbook anywhere on our roster.
@KathyMerdes under Filters do you have the Den Chiefs on? Do they show up under Edit Den?
That filter is checked. Still not showing.
He’s not listed in ‘edit den’ either. He’s not made it to the roster yet to be added to the den.
