Unit permissions

I am currently volunteering as an Assistant Cubmaster and a Troop committee member. On Monday (06APR2026), I watched as my unit’s Cubmaster set me up with advancement permissions to update a wolf den’s advancement. I still can’t update any of these Cub Scouts adventure loops. As a parent, I can enter what my own child has completed, but I still can’t update any of the other scouts in the Pack. Scoutbook Plus should also add a help or support button.

@Chris.Rowe you do not have Advancement Permissions under your registered Leader position

I would have your unit leaders look at these 2 links. A major focus of the migration to Scoutbook Plus is to have positions mirror the positions shown in My.Scouting to ensure positions were reflected accurately in both platforms. The main purpose it to honor the guidance of our charter organizations and the positions they approve. Therefore, Scoutbook Plus does not use Legacy Scoutbook positions. Registered positions are used to provide base permissions. Some additional permissions can be added by the unit, however, there are restrictions on what can be given. See the updated Scoutbook_Permissions.pdf and the Scoutbook Plus permissions video for more details.
