Chapter 128: Working with Membership Types (WWMT)
Purpose: Use the Work with Membership Type menu option to define membership type codes. You can use these codes to group and identify membership programs for informational or reporting purposes, or as selection criteria when you are generating membership orders. See Membership Overview.
Loyalty memberships? The membership type also controls whether a membership program is a standard membership that you sell or create, or a loyalty membership, in which the system automatically evaluates whether each customer placing an order qualifies for the loyalty program based on order history.
You use different screens in Working with Membership Programs (WWMP) and Working with Customer Memberships (WWCM) for loyalty membership programs vs. standard programs.
Allow changes? For standard membership programs, the membership type also controls whether you can change any of the default settings from the membership program for individual customer memberships.
Which information cannot be changed? The information controlled by this setting includes the items included on generated orders, any discount, and the criteria the system uses to determine shipment intervals. If the membership program is assigned to a type that does not permit changes, this information is display-only for customer memberships you create and cannot be changed.
Which information can be changed? You will be able to change only:
• the customer membership's status
• the next release date for orders
• the alternate shipping address or recipient customer
• pay type information
