How to do a basic search

 PDF/PRINT 

 

Roles: All.

Process overview:  This process allows a member to search for other members within the hierarchy in order to view relevant details, then make updates (where the user has appropriate access), and check information. To make a search, at least one piece of information is required from the following: membership number, name, email address, role. The basic search will search using only these fields – use ‘Advanced search’ for further search options. Members are only able to search for other members within their branch of the hierarchy.

 

Please note: The ‘My members’ button allows you to see all people within your hierarchy. If you have more than one role, you may need to change the role in the ‘My roles’ dropdown box to access the appropriate hierarchy information. For example, if you are an Assistant District Commissioner and a Cub Scout Leader, you will need to have the District role showing to view the District, or the section role showing to view the section.
