In the new Scoutbook Plus Permissions Manager function, it appears that a Unit Commissioner assigned to serve a unit cannot be assigned the new Unit Support role by the Unit Key 3 – unless the commissioner is also a registered member of that same unit (which is a whole other discussion…).
This is a change from legacy Scoutbook, where a Unit Commissioner could be granted Pack Admin or Troop Admin access to be able to better help a unit that they serve.
I understand and respect that the change is meant to honor the guidance of our charter organizations and the positions they approve; however, it is difficult to be the single, best resource without access to Scoutbook Plus.
I suppose that a workaround for units that want their unit commissioner to be able to help them by having access in Scoutbook Plus would be to multiple register that commissioner as a Unit Scouter Reserve in their unit, and then grant them the desired permissions.
Your thoughts?
