All you need to do is use “manage member ID” which can be accessed from my.Scouting or Scoutbook. Make sure that your TAC BSA ID is on the list in that screen and set that ID to primary. You might have more than one TAC BSA ID too, so double check on your profile screen in my.scouting that you have a current registration.
To find all your BSA ID’s go to
my.scouting.org, do not login or if you are automatically logged in, log out. Then click on “Create New Account”. Do not worry, you won’t actually finish this, but it is a way to find all your BSA IDs. Enter your first name, last name, birth date, but do not enter a Zip Code, instead toggle the Outside the US to “YES”; and click next. You will be provided a list of all your BSA ID numbers. Copy them along with the Zip Code then click on None to cancel out and go back to the login screen. The Zip Code may give you a clue as to what council you were in when you had that BSA ID. Use this list of Member IDs when adding to the “Manage Member ID” Screen.
If this correction causes you problems in Scoutbook, that is an indicator that you have duplicate Scoutbook accounts that need to be merged. This will require you to send an email with all your BSA IDs, requesting your District Executive to merge your Scoutbook accounts.
By not having your YPT completion date “manually” entered, your account issues can be corrected before they become a problem. This will also help identify if you are not position trained—so that you can take steps to complete the required training for your Scouting position(s) ensuring you are not at risk.
