We’re excited to share a new improvement coming to MyScouts! 🎉
Starting this December, Group Commissioners (GCs) and Group Registrars (GRs) will be able to manage section waitlists directly!
🔍 What’s Changing?
Currently, only Council Registrars and CK3 members can remove youth from section waitlists. With this update, GCs and GRs will have the same ability, plus safeguards to keep everything transparent. 🔐
📌What’s Changing?
- ✅ New Permissions: GCs and GRs can remove youth from section waitlists in MyScouts.
-
📝 Reason Required: When removing a youth, you’ll see a second pop-up asking you to select a reason:
- No Longer Interested
- No Response from Family
- Moved Out of Area
- Joined Another Group
- Age Not Eligible
- Duplicate Entry
- Medical/Inclusion Needs Unmet
- Parent Request for Removal
- 📧 Parent Notification: After removal, an automated email will be sent to the parent with the reason.
- 📂 Audit Trail: All actions and reasons will be logged for accountability.
💡 Why this matters
This update empowers local volunteers to:
- ⚡ Respond quickly to families awaiting placement.
- 🔄 Keep waitlists accurate between semi-annual reminder campaigns.
- 🛠 Reduce administrative bottlenecks while maintaining transparency.
📅Timeline
- 🚀 Production Release: December 2025 (after all adjustments are complete).
👉Next Steps
- ✅ Watch for the official release announcement later this month.
