Membership Cards
Most Membership programs offer their members a printed Membership Card. Frequently, a single Membership may issue multiple Membership Cards, under different names. To track this information, an unlimited number of Membership Card data rows may be linked to the Membership row. While the Membership Card row will always 'belong' to the Membership constituent, the names that are specified for the cards may be any name or any text that you want.
When the Membership structure is designed by the institution, the number of Membership Cards that will typically be made available to each Membership Type is defined in the Membership Type lookup table. That information is transferred to the Membership data row when it is created.
Each Membership Card row may be used to track the following information:
- Name - this may be the name of the Membership constituent, or any other name that is desired, including non-constituent names. This name information should be entered as you want to have it appear on the card (John Smith, not Smith/John).
- Line Two - additional information that you may choose to print on the card.
- Line Three - additional information that you may choose to print on the card.
- Card Printed? - A flag indicating whether or not the card has been printed.
- Active? A flag indicating whether the data row is active or inactive.
Membership Card information is displayed as secondary data rows linked to a Membership row.
The system will prompt for the creation of the Membership Card data rows as the Membership information is entered. For complete information, see Automated Membership Process.
If you do not create the Membership Card rows at the time the Membership is created, and want to add them later, you may do so by using the Insert item on the context menu available by passing the mouse pointer over the edit button for an existing Membership Card row, or via the Insert item on the context menu accessed via the Membership Card Section Header Edit button.
Once created, a Membership Card row may be edited via the Update/Delete item on the context menu for the edit button which appears to the left of the display of the row. You will be given a data maintenance form containing the existing data.
Membership Cards Field Descriptions
Membership Card data is stored in the membershipcards data table. The following fields are included. The field labels and non-displaying designations that are listed here are those that the system uses by default. If you want to override these default settings, you must customize your display definition.
Note: Custom fields are included in the data table, and are available for any purpose that you want to define. These fields are not shown on the standard Display or standard Data Maintenance forms. If you want to make use of one or more of the custom fields, use the Custom Display Designer to edit the standard Display and Data Maintenance forms.
