Periodic Membership Housekeeping
Paused Memberships
Who does this: The officer team and/or dedicated volunteers
Cadence: 1-2 times a month
Ace’s system does not support pausing memberships. Members must cancel their subscription and repurchase, otherwise when they reactivate their membership the system will assume they owe back dues. 1-2 times a month, team members must go through the Pending Payment tab and clear out paused memberships. You will need to check in these 3 places to make sure that the memberships are properly cancelled:
Pending orders: WooCommerce>Orders>Pending Payment
Subscriptions: WooCommerce>Subscriptions>On Hold
Memberships: WooCommerce>Memberships>Paused
- Cancel the pending order
- Go to WooCommerce>Orders>Pending Payment
- Find the pending orders that are for membership tier amounts
- Open the pending order, change status from Pending Payment to Cancelled, and click update
- Cancel the membership subscription
- Go to their User Membership page (easiest way to find membership page is to go to their profile, scroll to the bottom, and go to the list of Memberships)
- Do NOT change membership status on the user membership page! Go to the subscription order page instead
- On the subscription order page, change subscription status from On Hold to Cancelled and click update
- Send a notification
- Go back to the User Membership page
- Use the membership notes to add note and send the “paused membership notification” copy from the email response doc
- Be sure to click the box that says “send to member” and add note
