Hi all,

We have some families with multiple boys in the troop.

The parents would like to be able to transfer money from 1 scout account to another within their household. How can this be done?

I tried adding the manage money permission to a parent with Household permissions, but she was able to see transactions outside of her household, so I removed the permissions.

I am asking so parents can use Stripe, bulk add money to 1 scout account, pay only 1 fee, then transfer a portion of that money to another scout fund within the household.

How do other units handle this situation? Does the treasurer move money between family scout accounts, or am I missing something?

Thanks!

Scott

Right now we don’t offer this as a feature. It has been requested and it is on the todo list. If parents do not put money in their scouts’ accounts often, then for now I would just have a leader do the transfers when necessary.
