There are multiple ways in which you can add members and roster information to your website.
- Manual - You can add members manually through the Add Member function under Administration/Members/Unit Members. For this method you will have to add a member for each scout, parent, and then associate children and their parents manually.
- User Registration (aka "Join") - You can have members enter their own information as they create their accounts. For Packs, you will most likely have to add scout accounts manually and associate children with parents.
- Roster Import - This SOAR specific format can be used to fully load both members and roster information including child/parent association and patrol/den association.
- PackMaster/TroopMaster Import - You can export your data from TroopMaster products and import into your SOAR website. This includes both scouts, parents, and adults leaders and will automatically associate children and their parents, create patrols/dens, and assign leadership positions. Subsequent imports will be treated as synchronizations and your members list and roster will be modified to match TroopMaster/PackMaster data.
Note: The User Registration membership feature should not be used with Roster or PackMaster/TroopMaster Import option.
