Types of Membership Statuses
There are 5 Membership statuses, all of which you may seen utilized in your Trident1 POS. The 5 Statuses are:
Active
Hold
Inactive
Cancelled
Terminated
Active
After you ring up a Membership Package to a Customer and there is a successful transaction, their Membership Status will go to Active.
Ideally, you would like all of your Memberships in an Active status. Active status lets us know that they have an Active, Live Membership and they are expected to incur all discounts and benefits related to the Membership as defined by the Membership Package.
Hold
The Hold status is utilize when you would like to temporarily suspend a Membership from Billing. Note that whenever you suspend them from Billing, they will additionally NOT receive discounts and benefits related to the Membership as well while they are in this status.
To place a Membership on Hold:
Navigate to the Membership
Click on Edit to the top-right
Switch the status to Hold
Click on Save
Hold in Monthly
Whenever a Membership is placed on Hold on a Monthly Plan:
They will not be charged during the time they are on Hold
No time will be added to their Membership
The Billing Date does not change
After the Customer gets released off hold, they will then be expected to be charged on the next billing date.

This Membership is the Standard Silver Individual Monthly and is bought on March 12th, 2020 with a duration of 12 months, billed monthly on the 12th date and is non-auto renewed so will expire on March 12th, 2021.

Hold in Annual
Whenever a Customer buys an Annual Membership, it is expected they pay all of their money upfront so the days are already paid for so they will need to be modified whenever they are on Hold.

The Billing Date does not change
Time will be calculated by the time they are placed on Hold and added to the end of their Membership
