The Unit Visit Tracking System (UVTS) has been enhanced for council commissioner staff members, allowing an expanded form of use so that Commissioners from within a specific District can now view and submit tracking reports for any unit rather than only ones they are assigned to. Check out this new FAQ provided by National:
What is the Unit Visit Tracking System (UVTS)?
It’s an online method for commissioners to track information about contacts with units. It's recommended that Unit Commissioners file a UVTS report every time they make contact with a unit in order to update the status of that unit.
How does UVTS become available to commissioners?
Anyone registered by the council in any commissioner position may use UVTS from MyScouting.org. Commissioners must enter their member ID in My Profile for access to UVTS. This ensures that their registration as a Commissioner within the Council ties to their MyScouting.org profile.
Does the council assign unit commissioners to units in ScoutNET?
Effective with this new release, councils no longer assign unit commissioners to units in ScoutNET to provide UVTS unit access. All that is required of the council is the registration of commissioners in approved positions.
What commissioners will have access to UVTS?
Each commissioner is able to view unit visit reports entered for any unit in the organizational level of the commissioner’s registration. For example, unit and district level commissioners may view the reports for units in their district. The council level commissioners may view the reports for all units in every district.
What commissioners will be able to enter unit visit reports?
Anyone in each council who holds a commissioner position will be able to enter a unit visit report for any unit within the organization level associated with the commissioner position. For example, unit and district level commissioners may enter reports for units in their district. The council level commissioners may enter reports for all units in every district.
Does UVTS have other new features?
Yes. The Export Visits Summary lists each active, Traditional unit in the council or district and reports the number of unit visit reports entered for each unit. Each report now has more fields of data. The updated filter function allows for new sorting of visit reports. Persons who serve as administrative commissioners may enter Administrative Comments for any existing unit visit report in the council or district.
