Best Practices

  • Set up consistent Member Type naming conventions. For instance, if you club is setting up Spouse and Dependent Member types, always designate them consistently (ie - Member Type - Sp, vs., Member Type 1-Spouse, Member Type 2-Sp, Member Type 3 - SPS, and Member Type - Dep, vs.. Member Type 1-Depend, Member Type 2-Dep, Member Type 3-Dependent).

  • If Members are part of a Member Type that is subject to Late Fees, but they are exempt, ensure to flag the Member as late fee exempt in the Member’s Profile, Financial Information tab.

FAQs

  • Q. Can Members be part of more than one Member Type?

  • A. A Member can be assigned to only one Member Type. A Member can, however, belong to Multiple Member Groups, so if your Club is setting up a Type to accomplish something that would better be accomplished through a Group, consider setting up a Member Group instead of an additional Member Type.
