March 5, 20233 yr I've done quite a bit of searching and cant seem to find a setting for this, and maybe there is no such thing, but: Is there a setting in SB that will send an alert of some kind (through SB, or email, etc) to the UAC when a Scout / Parent / Leader marks items as "Completed" that then need to be "Approved" such as rank req's or activity log entries. I know the official way is to run a "Needs Approval" report but I'm kinda hoping there's a shortcut. Thanks All !!
March 5, 20233 yr No, there is no "Needs Approval" alert. This is a good thing. When a Scout enters something complete on Scoutbook, then the Scout needs to contact an adult to work on getting tested to have something approved. This keeps the monkey on the Scout's back. When a Scout marks something as complete, it is for their own tracking, and it should, in no way, create a "demand signal" for adult leaders.

Keeps accountability for the Scout and like you said, that element of "follow-through". Thank you again for the wisdom, my friend.
