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.
Please “pin” the Scout’s name to the top of the page while scrolling rank requirements (or any requirements if this holds true for Merit Badges as well). We should always be able to confirm we are approving for the correct Scout before pushing save.
In the new system, the name of the scout disappears up off the top when scrolling down the rank requirement list. I always want to double check that I am approving the right thing for the right Scout. As Advancement Chair, I was approving multiple rank Boards of Review from last night’s troop meeting. If I cannot see the Scout’s name as I am approving a Board of Review, I cannot easily confirm that I am approving the correct Scout. I have to scroll all the way back to the top, finally the name reappears, then I have to scroll all the way back down to hit Save.
this was not on the to approve page. I was on the Scout’s advancement page, entering the rank requirement (completion date of the BOR) and marking awarded at the same time. I am less concerned about the marking awarded, and more concerned about being able to see the Scout’s name while I save the completion date of a requirement.
