Advancement Hub

The Advancement Hub gives you windows into all of your scouts' advancement status.  It is available to any user who has a role that is authorized for the "Maintain Rank Advancement" or "Advancement Hub" tasks.  You'll find it at Advancement → Advancement Hub.

Like all hubs, you can edit the Advancement Hub to fit your troop's requirements.  This allows you to remove widgets you don't need - like the "Rank Sign Off Requests" data window if you don't allow scouts to submit requests for sign off.  You may also add or replace widgets.

You can choose from the following Data Window widgets:

Widget Name Displays Links To
