Chapter 130: Working with Customer Memberships (WWCM)

Purpose: Use the Work with Customer Memberships menu option to review or change customer memberships. Available options for standard membership programs include:

• creating a new customer membership

• changing the terms of the membership, including dates and payment information

• working with items for the membership

• activating, deactivating, or canceling a membership

• advancing to order inquiry for the customer membership

Settings default from membership program: The settings you have defined for the standard membership program default for each new customer membership you create. These settings include dates, frequency of shipments, discount, and included items.

However, you can override these defaults for standard membership programs as long as the membership type permits it. See Chapter 129: Working with Membership Programs (WWMP).

Create through order entry: You can also use order entry to create a standard customer membership. See Chapter 127: Membership Overview for general information; or see Order Entry Chapter 22: Entering Customer Memberships for detailed information.

Loyalty memberships: Unlike standard customer memberships, customer loyalty memberships are created automatically based on the customer’s order history, sales history, or customer class. You cannot create a customer loyalty membership through this menu option. See Loyalty Memberships for an overview.

Field

Description

Customer #

A unique number to represent the sold-to customer who ordered the membership.

Ghost customers: If you enter the customer number of a ghost customer, the scan screen does not display any memberships; this is because a merge/purge has assigned any memberships using that customer number to the “target” customer. You can identify a ghost customer by the setting of the Ghost flag.

Numeric, 9 positions; optional.

Membershp ID (Membership ID)

A code that identifies the membership program in which the customer is enrolled.

Alphanumeric, 12 positions; optional.

Type

A code that identifies the type of membership program. You can use membership types to group membership programs, to indicate whether any of the settings for the membership program can be overridden for individual customer memberships, or to identify a membership program as a loyalty program. See Working with Membership Types (WWMT) for more information.

Alphanumeric, 2 positions; display-only.

Status

The current status of the customer membership. Valid values are:

Active = The customer membership is active; the system will create new membership orders and/or apply any discount if the Discount end date has not been reached.

Inactive = The customer membership has been deactivated, but you can reactivate it. The system does not generate membership orders for an inactive membership, and any discount does not apply.

In process = A membership order is currently in a suspended order batch. You need to correct the errors or delete the order and then accept the order batch to change the status of the customer membership. See Order Entry Chapter 27: Opening an Order Batch for more information on batch order entry.

Note: This status does not apply to loyalty memberships.

Canceled = The customer membership has been canceled before it was completed. You can cancel a customer membership by entering 4 next to it at this screen.

Note: Canceling the items for a customer membership changes the status to Complete, not Canceled.

Complete = The number of shipments specified rotations for the customer membership are complete, or all items on the customer membership have been canceled. If you do not specify the number of times to include for each item on the customer membership, the system will not consider the membership complete.

Note: This status does not apply to loyalty memberships.

See Changing Customer Membership Status, Rotation or Release Date.

Alphanumeric, 10 positions; display-only.

Shp int (Shipment interval)

The minimum interval, in number of days, that the Generating Membership Orders (EGMO) program should wait between generating orders for this customer membership. Standard membership programs only.

Numeric, 3 positions; display-only.

Int day (Interval day of the month)

The day of the month when the Generating Membership Orders (EGMO) program should consider the customer membership eligible for order generation. Standard membership programs only.

Numeric, 2 positions; display-only.

# shp (Number of shipments)

The number of membership orders that have been generated to date for the customer membership. Standard membership programs only.

Numeric, 3 positions; display-only.

Next rot (Next rotation)

The next rotation due to be included when you generate membership orders. You assign a rotation to an item on a customer membership to indicate when it should be included in an order. Standard membership programs only.

If the membership does not have differing rotations (that is, each order includes the same item(s)), the next rotation will always be 1.

Numeric, 3 positions; display-only.

Next rel date (Next release date)

The next date when the Generating Membership Orders (EGMO) program should consider the customer membership eligible for order generation. The system calculates this date based on the schedule defined for the membership. Also, you can change the next release date by entering 14 next to a customer membership; see Changing Customer Membership Status, Rotation or Release Date. Standard membership programs only.

Numeric, 6 positions (MM/DD/YY format); display-only.

Last ord date (Last order date)

The last date when an order was generated for the customer membership. Standard membership programs only.

Numeric, 6 positions (MM/DD/YY format); display-only.

Customer name (Unlabeled field below the customer number)

The name of the customer who ordered the membership, or qualified for the loyalty membership.

Alphanumeric, 41 positions; display-only.

Recipient (Unlabeled field to the right of the sold-to customer name)

The name of the customer to receive the membership orders, if different from the customer who ordered the membership. Standard membership programs only.

You can set up these types of recipients for standard memberships:

Alternate address: A different shipping address to use for orders you generate for all or part of the term of the membership, such as a vacation address. See Alternate Shipping Address Screen (Change Mode).

Recipient customer: A separate customer in your customer file who receives the membership, perhaps through a gift. See Customer Membership Recipient Screen (Change Mode).

Customer ship-to: An additional shipping address associated with the sold-to customer who placed the order. Unlike the alternate address, the customer ship-to is permanently associated with the sold-to customer, and is not restricted to a particular order or membership. To send the membership orders to a customer ship-to address, you must complete the Recipient and Ship to # fields at the Customer Membership Screen (Change Mode).

Alphanumeric, 30 positions; display-only.

The number that identifies the customer sold-to who is ordering the membership. You can press F4 to advance to the Select Customer Sold To pop-up window; this window permits scanning on various types of information, such as postal code, name, telephone number and email address.

Customer sold-to numbers are defined in and validated against the Customer Sold To file. See Chapter 28: Creating and Updating Sold-to Customers (WCST).

If you enter the number of a ghost customer, the system displays the Ghost Customer Warning Pop-up Window.

Numeric, 9 positions; required.

Membership ID

The code that identifies a membership program. The settings you have defined for the membership program default to the new customer membership program. You can override these defaults unless the membership program's type is flagged to prohibit changes.

Membership programs are defined in and validated against the Membership file. See Chapter 129: Working with Membership Programs (WWMP).

You cannot enter a membership ID whose membership type is flagged as a loyalty program. See Loyalty Memberships for an overview.

Alphanumeric, 12 positions; required.

Completing this window: You advance to the Customer Membership Screen (Change Mode).

Ghost Customer Warning Pop-up Window

A ghost customer is a customer whose records have been merged with the records of a matching customer when you performed a Merge/Purge. The ghost customer was the source customer in the merge; records for this customer were merged with the records for a matching target customer. When performing the merge you can elect to flag a source customer as a Ghost on the Work with Source Customers Screen. Ghost customer records are retained in the Customer Sold To file for informational purposes, but they do not represent the most recent customer order information from the merged (target customer) records.

When you enter the number of a ghost customer, the pop-up Warning Window displays.

WARNING

Customer number 202 has been merged with Customer

137 . Customer number 137 will be used for

this transaction.

Please verify Name and Address with Customer.

F3=Exit F12=Cancel ENTER=Continue

Press Enter to return to the Create Customer Membership Window with the target customer number entered on the screen. For example, if you enter 202, a ghost customer, the system will display the warning window informing you that customer 202 has been merged into customer 137. When you continue with the create customer membership process, customer 137 will default on the Create Customer Membership Window.

See Marketing Chapter 37: Working with Merge/Purge Sold-to Names (MMCS) for more information on the merge/purge function.

Note: The system displays a message such as Cannot manually create cust. if the membership ID you enter specifies a loyalty program. You cannot create a customer loyalty membership. See Loyalty Memberships for an overview.

Customer Membership Screen (Change Mode)

Purpose: Use this screen to review or override the settings for the standard membership program that have defaulted for a customer membership.

Note:

• If the membership program's type prohibits changes, you will not be able to override any of the settings that have defaulted from the membership program.

Status

The status of the customer membership. Valid values are:

A = Active: The customer membership is active; the system will create new membership orders and apply any discount if the Discount end date has not been reached.

Shipment interval

The minimum interval, in number of days, that the Generate Customer Membership Orders program should wait between generating orders for this membership. If a shipment interval was specified for the membership program, it defaults here.

Example: If a customer membership's shipment interval is set to 30, the Generate Customer Membership Orders program will consider the membership eligible for a new order if 30 days have passed since the last order was generated.

You cannot specify both a shipment interval and a fixed shipment day for a membership program.

You can override the shipment interval only if the membership program's type allows changes. See Chapter 129: Working with Membership Programs (WWMP).

Numeric, 3 positions; required if you don't specify a fixed shipment day, or display-only.

Fixed shipment day

The day of the month when the Generating Membership Orders (EGMO) program should consider the customer membership eligible for order generation. If a fixed shipment day was specified for the membership program, it defaults here.

Example: If you set the membership's fixed shipment day to 15, the system initially sets a release date as follows:

• if the current day of the month is 14 or earlier, the next release date is set to the 15th of the current month.

• if the current day of the month is 15 or later, the next release date is set to the 15th of the following month.

The system recalculates the Next release date if you change the Fixed shipment day.

Order generation: Each time you generate a new order for the customer membership, the Generate Customer Membership Orders program resets its release date as described above.

Validation: You cannot specify both a shipment interval and a fixed shipment day for a customer membership. Also, your entry cannot be greater than 28, to make sure that the customer membership will be eligible for order generation during each month of the year.

You can override the fixed shipment day only if the membership program's type allows changes. See Chapter 129: Working with Membership Programs (WWMP).

Numeric, 2 positions; required if you don't specify a shipment interval, or display-only.

Next release date

The next date when the Generating Membership Orders (EGMO) program should consider the customer membership eligible for order generation. When you create the customer membership or generate a new order, the system calculates this date based on the Shipment interval or Fixed shipment day.

To change: Press F14. See Changing Release Date or Rotation for a Customer Membership.

The system updates the next release date if you change the Fixed shipment day.

Numeric, 6 positions (MM/DD/YY format); display-only.

Last order date

The last date when you generated a new order for the customer membership.

Numeric, 6 positions (MM/DD/YY format); display-only.

Next rot (Next rotation)

You can change the next rotation for a membership by pressing F14. See Changing Release Date or Rotation for a Customer Membership.

Numeric, 3 positions; display-only.

Discount start date

The date when any discount percentage for the membership begins applying to orders for the customer. The current date defaults if you set up a Discount duration for the membership program.

Validation: If the customer membership includes a discount start date, it also requires a discount end date; otherwise, both fields must be blank.

Applies to active memberships only: Regardless of the discount start and end dates, the system applies a discount to orders only if the customer membership is currently active.

You can override the discount start date only if the membership program's type allows changes. See Chapter 129: Working with Membership Programs (WWMP).

Numeric, 6 positions (MM/DD/YY format); optional.

Discount end date

The last date when any discount percentage for the membership applies to orders for the customer. If you set up a Discount duration for the membership program, the system calculates this date when you create a customer membership by adding the number of months for the discount duration to the current date.

Validation: If the customer membership includes a discount start date, it also requires a discount end date, it also requires a discount end date; otherwise, both fields must be blank

Applies to active memberships only: Regardless of the discount start and end dates, the system applies a discount to orders only if the customer membership is currently active.

You can override the discount end date only if the membership program's type allows changes. See Chapter 129: Working with Membership Programs (WWMP).

Numeric, 6 positions (MM/DD/YY format); optional.

Disc% (Discount percentage)

The percentage discount to apply to orders for the customer as long as the customer membership is active and the current date is within the discount start and end dates, if defined.

Discount hierarchy: If the customer has more than one active membership that carries a discount percentage, the highest discount percentage applies. Additionally, if an additional discount percentage, such as a customer discount or a promotional discount, applies to the order, the system applies this discount after subtracting the membership discount from the merchandise total.

Discount-only memberships: If the membership is for discounting purposes only (that is, you will not be generating orders), the membership will never close automatically. Even after the discount end date passes, the membership will remain active, although the discount will no longer apply to new orders.

You can override the discount percentage only if the membership program's type allows changes. See Chapter 129: Working with Membership Programs (WWMP).

Numeric, 5 positions with a 2-place decimal; optional.

Pay type

The pay type to apply to orders generated for the customer membership.

Required for order generation: A customer membership requires payment information unless it is for discounts only. If the customer membership does not have payment information when you generate orders, it will not be selected for order generation,; instead, it will appear on the Memberships in Error Report, produced when you generate membership orders.

Validation: You can enter only the following payment categories for a customer membership:

• prepaid

• credit card

• accounts receivable

• C.O.D.

You cannot enter a coupon/credit pay type for a customer membership.

Changes you make to a customer membership do not affect any orders you have already generated for the membership.

Bill Me Later: See Bill Me Later Processing for an overview of this payment method and special considerations when working with customer memberships.

Pay type codes are defined in and validated against the Pay Type file. See Accounts Payable Chapter 5: Working with Pay Types (WPAY).

Numeric, 2 positions; optional.

Cash amount

The amount of cash to apply to the customer membership. You can enter a cash amount for a prepaid payment type only.

When you generate an order: The system updates the cash amount available for the membership each time you generate an order against it. For example, if there is a $100.00 prepayment against the membership, and you generate an order for $20.00, the system reduces the cash amount for the membership to $80.00.

Updating the cash amount: Your entry should represent the actual amount now available for the membership.

Example: A customer prepays with two $50.00 checks for a total of $100.00. You generate an order for $20.00, and the system reduces the cash amount for the membership to $80.00. Subsequently, a $50.00 check from the customer is returned for insufficient funds. You need to enter a cash amount of $30.00 ($80.00 - $50.00) to update the cash amount correctly.

Any cash amount you enter for a customer membership does not apply to existing orders you have generated. See About Entering Cash Amounts for a Customer Membership.

Numeric, 9 positions with a 2-place decimal; required if you enter a prepaid payment type.

CC Last4

The last four digits of the actual credit card number in order to verify the card with the customer. Stored in the Last 4 field in the Customer Membership file.

Alphanumeric, 4 positions; display-only.

Card# (credit card number)

The credit card number to use as payment for membership orders. This is a token instead of the actual credit card if you use credit card tokenization and the Tokenized field in the Customer Membership file is Y. A credit card number is required if you enter a credit card pay type; otherwise entry is prohibited.

Credit Card validation: The system validates your entry against the settings for the pay type. Additionally, the credit card number requires authorization when you generate a pick slip for a membership order.

Bin number validation: If bin numbers are defined for the pay type, the system validates that the card number begins with a valid bin number; see Work with Bin Numbers Screen. The system stores the first six digits of the actual credit card number in the Bin field in the Customer Membership file in order to perform Level II and III Discounting on the card during deposit processing.

Existing membership orders: Changes you make to a customer membership do not affect any orders you have already generated for the membership.

Tokenization: If the Use Tokenization field for the authorization service defined for the credit card pay type is Y and the Tokenized field for the Customer Membership record is N or blank, the system sends an XML message to the authorization service to replace the credit card number with a token. If the Require Credit Card Token (L40) system control value is set to Y and a token is not returned in the response message, the system displays the Tokenization Warning window and requires you to enter a different form of payment on the membership.

 

Credit card number format: If you do not have authority to the Display Full Credit Card Number (B14) secured feature, the credit card number displays in the format specified at the Credit Card Number Layout Screen for the associated pay type. For example, ************1443 may display instead of the entire credit card number. See Credit Card Number Format for an overview.

If you do not have authority to the Restrict Access to Credit Card Numbers in OI and OM (A88) secured feature, this field is blank. You will not be able to edit the credit card number.

Numeric, 20 positions; required for a credit card pay type.

Expiration date

The last date when the credit card number is valid. An expiration date is required if you enter a credit card pay type; otherwise, entry is prohibited.

Validation: The system validates that the expiration date has not already passed when you press Enter at this screen. Additionally, the system checks the expiration date as part of the authorization process when you generate a pick slip for a membership order.

If you do not have authority to the Restrict Access to Credit Card Numbers in OI and OM (A88) secured feature, this field is blank. You will not be able to edit the credit card number.

Numeric, 4 positions (MMYY format); required for a credit card pay type.

Default source

The source code to use when generating orders for the membership. If a source code was specified for the membership program it defaults here, but you can override it. The system validates that the source code you enter is current, valid and not restricted.

The source code you enter here defaults to the Original source field if you are creating the membership through the Work with Customer Memberships menu option.

If this source code matches the source code in the Default Unknown Source Code (I58) system control value, the system updates the source code on the order header to the source code associated with the offer on the first order detail line; see Default Unknown Source Code Logic.

Changes you make to a customer membership do not affect any orders you have already generated for the membership.

Source codes are defined in and validated against the Source Code file; see Marketing Chapter 6: Working with Source Codes (WSRC).

You can override the default source only if the membership program's type allows changes. See Chapter 129: Working with Membership Programs (WWMP).

Alphanumeric, 9 positions; required.

Original source

The original source code associated with the customer membership. If you create the customer membership through Working with Customer Memberships (WWCM), the source code assigned to the membership program defaults. If you create the customer membership through order entry, the source code from the order header defaults. This code is used for reporting and tracking purposes only.

Changes you make to a customer membership do not affect any orders you have already generated for the membership.

You can override the original source only if the membership program's type allows changes. See Chapter 129: Working with Membership Programs (WWMP).

Alphanumeric, 9 positions; required.

Ship via

The ship via to use for orders you generate for the membership program. The ship via that was specified for the membership program defaults here, but you can override it.

Invalid SCF/ship via combination: If the ship via for the customer membership is not valid for the shipping address on the order, the order will appear on the Print Phone Errors listing report when you generate orders and will remain in error status (E) until you correct the error in batch order entry; also, the customer membership will be in-process (I) status.

About Entering Cash Amounts for a Customer Membership

Overview: You can enter cash amounts for standard customer memberships in order to use the cash as a payment method on generated customer orders.

General Ledger Updates

For entry: The system posts these updates to the General Ledger Interface file:

• debits cash/accounts receivable, using the A/R cash g/l number defined for the default bank for the division

• credits cash/deferred liability, using the Membership deferred liability general ledger number defined for the division

For updates to prepayment amount: You can override the cash amount for a customer membership to reflect the actual amount now available to apply against generated orders. In this case, the system updates the General Ledger Interface file as follows:

If the update amount represents an increase: The system posts the same updates to the General Ledger Interface file as described above for entry. The postings represent the amount of the increase, or the new amount - the original amount. For example, if the original prepayment amount for the membership was $60.00, and you reset the prepayment amount to $100.00, the system posts an additional $40.00 to the General Ledger Interface file.

If the update amount represents a decrease: The updates to the General Ledger Interface file are the reverse of the examples above for entry. The postings represent the amount of the decrease, or the previous amount - the new amount. For example, if the previous prepayment amount was $60.00, and you reset the prepayment amount to $50.00, the system posts the difference of -$10.00 to the General Ledger Interface file.

For order generation: When you generate an order for the customer membership, the system:

• debits the order amount to cash/deferred liability, using the Membership deferred liability general ledger number defined for the division

• credits the order amount to cash/deferred liability, using the Sale general ledger number defined for the pay type

See Account Payable Chapter 40: General Ledger Overview, for more information on general ledger postings.

Update to cash amount: When you generate an order for the customer membership, the system reduces the total cash amount to reflect the amount allocated to the new order. For example, if the total cash amount is $100.00, and you generate an order for $20.00, the system reduces the cash amount for the customer membership to $80.00.

You can update the cash amount after you have begun to generate orders for the customer membership; however, your reset to the cash amount total should reflect the total amount that has already been allocated to generated orders. Your entry should be equal to the new total cash amount available for the customer membership.

Example: A customer prepays with two $50.00 checks for a total of $100.00. You generate an order for $20.00, and the system reduces the cash amount for the membership to $80.00. Subsequently, a $50.00 check from the customer is returned for insufficient funds. You need to enter a cash amount of $30.00 ($80.00 - $50.00) to update the cash amount correctly.

When the cash amount is exhausted: The system will continue to generate orders for the membership; however, these orders will be put on hold because of the balance due. You must use order maintenance to apply cash to these orders and change their status to open.

About existing orders: Any cash amount you enter does not apply to existing orders that have been generated for the membership. You must use order maintenance to enter payment information for these orders.

Canceling a prepaid membership: The system does not process any updates to the General Ledger Interface file when you cancel a prepaid membership. Also, the system does not generate a refund for the remaining cash amount for the membership. You will need to create and generate the refund separately.

Refund when membership closes: When you generate the last order for a prepaid membership, the system creates a refund for any remaining prepayment amount. The system closes a membership when all items have been included on generated orders the number of times specified in the Number of times to include field.

Customer Membership Details Screen

Purpose: Use this screen to enter or review items to include on a standard customer membership. This option is not available for loyalty customer memberships.

How to display this screen: Press F8 at the Customer Membership Screen (Change Mode), or enter 8 next to a standard customer membership at the Work with Customer Memberships Screen.

Note: You can change information on this screen only if the membership program's type allows changes; otherwise, each field is display-only. See Chapter 129: Working with Membership Programs (WWMP).

Changing Customer Membership Status, Rotation or Release Date

Canceling a Customer Membership

Enter 4 next to a membership at the Work with Customer Memberships Screen to display the Confirm Cancel Request pop-up window:

Confirm Cancel Request

Press ENTER to confirm cancel.

F12=Cancel

If you press Enter, the system displays the Enter Cancel Reason pop-up window:

F3=Exit F12=Cancel

Cancel reason code: This window requires a cancel reason code. The cancel reason code is a 2-position, numeric code, defined in and validated against the Cancel Reason Code file; see Chapter 5: Establishing Cancel Reason Codes (WCNR).

The system stores the cancel reason code for the item in the Customer Membership file.

You can cancel a membership only if its status is Active (A) or Inactive (I).

Canceling a membership does not:

• affect any open, unshipped orders you have already generated for the membership.

• delete the membership; it remains on the system. See Deleting a Customer Membership on how to remove a membership you created in error.

• delete the membership item from the order where it originated.

• update the General Ledger if the membership was prepaid.

• generate a refund for the remaining cash amount for a prepaid membership. You will need to create and generate the refund separately.

Note: Canceling a loyalty membership does not prevent the system from creating a new loyalty membership for the customer the next time there is order activity.

Deactivating a Customer Membership

Enter 15 next to a membership at the Work with Customer Memberships Screen to change the membership's status from Active (A) to Inactive (I). The system will not generate any new orders for an inactive membership, and any discount will not apply to any orders the customer places.

You can deactivate a membership only if its current status is Active.

Note: The system does not send a deactivation notification email to the customer if you deactivate a loyalty membership using this method. See Loyalty Memberships for more information.

Activating a Customer Membership

Enter 16 next to a membership at the Work with Customer Memberships Screen to change the membership's status from Inactive (I) to Active (A).

The system displays the Override Release Date pop-up window.

You can activate a membership only if its current status is Inactive.

Changing Release Date or Rotation for a Customer Membership

Enter 14 next to a standard customer membership at the Work with Customer Memberships Screen to display the Override Release Date pop-up window:

Override Release Date

Last order date . : 4/02/99

Next release date . 42099

Next rotation . . . 1

F3=Exit (no update)

Release date: Enter the next date when the order should be eligible for release. The next release date must be later than the current date and the Last order date.

Rotation: Enter the next rotation to use when you generate an order for the membership. The current setting to the Next rotation field defaults. The system will select items based on the rotation you enter. You cannot enter a rotation number if there are no items for the membership assigned to that rotation.

You can display this window only if the membership is currently in Active (A) or Inactive (I) status. This option is not available for loyalty customer memberships.

Note: You can also display this window by pressing F14 at the Customer Membership Screen (Change Mode).
