Rank Requirements
Move your mouse to the left to view the details of this form.
TroopWebHost has a complete description of the requirements for each rank, including the latest changes
that took effect January 1, 2010.
Simply check the box next to each requirement that this scout has earned, and then indicate the date on which it was earned.
When all requirements for a given rank have been completed, the system will automatically update the scout's rank to this new level.

Merit Badge Requirements
In a similar way, the system knows the requirements for each merit badge and allows you to record each achievement.
This example shows the requirements for Life Saving merit badge. As each is earned, the advancement leader checks off that requirement and logs the date.
When all requirements have been met, the merit badge has been earned. Later you can record the date on which it was awarded.

Other awards, like Order of the Arrow or the Eagle palms, can also be recorded in the database.
