Description from store
This tool extends several feature capabilities of Scoutbook.
Disclaimer: This tool was created by a Scouting Volunteer who spent his own time and energy to "Do a good turn" and help fellow Scouters out. It is not a product of the Scoutbook development team nor is supported by BSA. If it helps you out, terrific. If you find issues or have questions or would like to see it tweaked, please contact me so I can get them fixed.
What is it?
The focus of this extension is to provide time saving features to users of the Scoutbook Tool. It is hoped that the life of this tool will be short and that Scoutbook is able to integrate these feature concepts. This tool is simply an interim workaround to some needed features.
Until then, there is a great need to have the following included features.
Calendar
* Calendar Import from CSV file You can import calendar events using a CSV file
* Calendar Export to CSV
* Calendar Messaging You can select invitees based on their RSVP status to send
them messages. You can select attendees based on Attendance status to send them
messages.
* Update Multiple Calendar Event Invitees. You can add invitees to any number of
future events in a quick entry fashion.
Payment Logs
* Paylog Report - You can mail balances
* import transaction
* Close accounts
* Delete all account transactions
Session Monitor
* Session Timeout Notification. When the Scoutbook session is about to logged off
due to inactivity, a popup appears and you can click to extend the session.
Merit Badge Quick Entry for Units
* Add Merit Badge Quick Entry. You can use Quick Entry to Add merit badges, sign as
the Unit Leader, (and Assign Merit Badge Counselors - this feature temporarily removed due to Scoutbook changes)
Merit Badge Counselor Connection Helper
* Allows Merit Badge Counselors to identify connections that are no longer needed,
so they may be removed to clean up the dashboard.
Merit Badge Counselor Quick Connect
* Easily connect to a Merit Badge Counselor right from the Merit Badge Search Results, and
from a Scout's Merit Badge page
Merit badge Counselor -Class Support for connecting/disconnecting from multiple scouts at once, printing class log worksheets, and table style worksheet quick entry
Merit Badge Import from Summer Camps
* Summer Camp Merit Badge Import from Black Pug and Tentaroo Software. You can import data saved
after 6/1/2017 from Summer Camps that use the scoutingevent.com or tentaroo website to track
Merit badges.
Connection Manager Enhancement
* Set Scout column permissions. Sets all permissions except parents and Admins.
* Adds a Permissions by Position Manager page to easily set permissions based on the leadership and parent/guardian roles held by adults

* Adds a Custom Email Group option to all setting up custom groups.
* Always makes sure you are copied on messages going out

- (2025-02-05) Richard Collette: I probably should give this 5 stars just for the top level quick entry item that allows you to start a merit badge for multiple scouts at one and assign the MB counselor. National really needs to open source their computer systems and take advantage of the volunteer skillset that already exists in their ranks. The hodge podge of poorly written computer systems could probably be resolved in 6 months if not for a a bunch of stodgy leaders that have no idea what they are doing with computer systems.
- (2024-09-14) tusit weerasooriya: Could you please write for Troopmaster file import. This is great, but not helpful for me. Thanks in advance.

As I am an Apple person, I may still need help to get it to the chrome web store. Or can add as another extension, just modifying the input format to suit to above. Meantime, I will also try to get Troopmaster guys to write this and publicize the availability in their webpage. Thank you for this great extension to Chrome, even though I cannot use it, but for showing the possibilities to the rest of us.

- (2020-09-19) J “Sharkey” Doe: MUST HAVE EXTENSION FOR SCOUTBOOK!!!!! There are many features that this program adds to Scoutbook which create a considerably better entry experience. Run, not walk to add this extension. And tell your friends! Give this dev a 500% raise... or at least a Doctorate from his Council's University of Scouting!

- (2019-12-10) Adam Koch: I didn't realize being able to preview messages was because of this extension until tonight! I'm feeling boneheaded about the times I complained when it didn't show up (when I was probably on a different computer).

- (2018-02-08) How do we disable this add-on's ability to take control of the browser each time it is updated? It's a great plugin, but we need to be able to shut off the instant pop-up following every minor release. Thank you!
