Search Tag : recharter
My council does all recharters starting Jan 1, but they don't get implemented until March 1. Before handing over the paper charters I'm going through a district membership report (excel spreadsheet) of all my adults blacking out dropped adults, typing in new adults, and changing positions and adding email addresses. I'm doing this so that I can send emails to people to get trained in January and February. If I just hand over the paper charters to the registrar I would essentially just be totally blind for two months until the charters are implemented. Is there a better way to do this? Could National make it so I could access my post-charter roster (with email addresses too please) before it's implemented? Please don't tell me to look in ScoutNET one unit/person at a time with not even a copy/paste feature. This would essentially require me to do the same thing I'm doing now, typing out each change by hand, very time consuming and tedious.

Mr. Gibbon’s suggestion would appear to address the writer’s request. On-going improvements to the on-line rechartering application should address some of this.
As units complete their online re-charter process, there should be a field for them to update their meeting schedule, time and location as stored in Scoutnet.
Having accurate information would make it much easier for U.S.E.s and commissioners to gather that same information for use in planning unit visits, recruitments, FOS etc.

Good suggestion. I have passed it on to our Information Systems Department for consideration next time they update the UCRS System.
