So, we just picked up the legendary bundle+sub for my group and one of the players is Tome/Book of Ancient Secrets. There doesn't appear to be a way to add the rituals (rituals from any class' spell list) that he has. It's a pretty big feature for his build, I'm surprised there's no functionality for it - unless I'm missing something, which is pretty possible
Will be added with new character sheet revamp thats about to happen.

Unfortunately the fix hasn't really come as it was supposed to. so for now, you can create the actual item Book of Rituals and just add your rituals to the item itself. thats a work around for now. don't know when they will do something or if they will do it at all at this point.

BadEye has responded to this. His response... it's one of the first fixes to the new sheet we're working on. IE it didn't make it into the revamp as of July 14th, 2018 ... but it is a known issue, and they are working on fixing it as one of the next bug fixes.

Playtesting Fugare Draconis, an epic tale of adventure, loss, and redemption
Will this fix also include the Ritual Caster feat? It's basically the same function, a book I can add rituals too.

Ancient GM, started in '76, have played almost everything at some point or another.
I run/play Mercer-style games, heavy on the RP and interaction, light on the combat-monster and rule-lawyering. The goal is to tell an epic story with the players and the players are as involved in the world building as the GM is. I run and play a very Brechtian style, am huge into RP theory and love discussing improv and offers.
My understanding of the new sheet is that everything will be customisable. unfortunately, the spell listing and spell books haven't really been changed because they didn't have time to do so. i guess they just pushed it to other fixes. but from what they said, the whole sheet will be customisable.
what i dont understand is that the wizard can already add spells to his spell book, so i dont understand why its hard to do a thing thats already developped for and works.

Because it's a different mechanic. Rituals don't have to be memorized, if you know it, you know it. It's the same with a wizard who has 6 rituals in his book, but none of them show up in his character sheet unless he has them memorized, which is also rather silly. DNDBeyond just doesn't know how to handle Rituals yet.

Unfortunately you are wrong... wizard can just learn all of the spells in the list. then have a separate section for preparing spells. then have a different sections where the rituals actually appear. they have all 3 parts. now on the new sheet that didn't change. my wizard still has all 3 sections and can literally learn his whole list of spells which all of them appears in my ritual section and my prepared section.
just saying, its a thing thats already there and programmed for. so why is the feat and warlock invocation not working the same ? the real answer you are looking for is... they are not able to add those sections as you get the thing, its either already there but inactive or not there and cannot be used. i am leaning toward the later. but the thing is, the system is already in place, the wizard has it and it works. it worked in the old sheet and it works in the new sheet. i'd like to see their reasons why its that hard to do if they already have the system.

For the moment, one work around is to create a magic item with the spells that are in the Tome.

That’s what I was thinking. I just watched the latest stream where the new character sheet was shown. Looks great!!

I haven't figured it out in the new sheet. A I missing something? (very likely. :)
