TL;DR: Use ScoutBook+ for first import (most complete data). Export CSV, upload to TroopBook, review preview, execute.
Import your entire roster in minutes instead of manually entering hundreds of members.
| Feature | ScoutBook+ | My.Scouting | Legacy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Best For | ✅ First import | Registration tracking | Deprecated systems |
| Files Needed | 1 CSV | 1 CSV | 2 CSVs (Adults + Scouts) |
| Family Relationships | ✅ BSA ID (reliable) | ⚠️ Leaders & their kids only | ⚠️ Email match (unreliable) |
| Den/Unit Assignments | ✅ Complete | ⚠️ Partial (missing Lions) | ✅ Complete |
| Parent Contacts | ✅ All parents | ⚠️ Leaders only | ⚠️ Via email match |
| Registration Expiration | ❌ Not exported | ✅ Only source | ❌ Not exported |
| Grade Issues | ⚠️ Lions auto-fixed | ⚠️ Manual CSV edit needed | Usually complete |
Registration Tracking: My.Scouting is the only BSA export that includes registration expiration dates. If tracking recharter deadlines in TroopBook is important, import from My.Scouting after your initial ScoutBook+ import to sync expiration dates.
