Bug Fixes: TroopMaster 2008

Since the release of the TroopMaster 2008 Import feature, a couple of bugs have been identified and fixed. We are communicating these to you because you may need to take action to correct any errors in your Troop Roster – most likely through a simple re-import.

If you have questions on any of this, just give us a call and we can walk you through it.

TroopMaster Mic-O-Say

Mic-O-Say is an honor society used in a number of Councils. It is not an official BSA program.

TroopMaster has an option to perform Mic-O-Say record keeping. If you have Mic-O-Say turned off in TroopMaster Preferences, an invalid SOAR export file will be created.

This will be fixed in the next TM 2008 release (V4.00f) in a few weeks. In the interim, make sure Mic-O-Say is turned on within TroopMaster.

Multiple Parent Accounts

A bug was found that under certain conditions multiple parent accounts would be created during TroopMaster 2008 import.

This bug has been resolved. If you use the “remove members” option on your next Import, the duplicate accounts will be removed.

Wrong Parent Association

A bug was found that under certain conditions a parent would be associated with their own children and that of a child with only a single parent.

This bug has been resolved. A new import will resolve the issue
