Actions
Use Actions to run tasks directly from the Club Management Portal without opening a separate tool. Actions can help you check membership status, record a payment, assign a membership type, connect a membership type to Stripe, or send an email.
What an action is
- An action is a button or menu option that performs a task for one or more records.
- Some actions run immediately.
- Other actions open a small form first so you can enter a date, amount, note, or another setting.
Where to find actions
On a detail page
- Open the record you want to work with.
- Look for the Actions menu in the top-right corner.
- Choose the action you want to run.
- Complete any requested fields and save.
On an index page
- Go to a list page such as Members or Membership Renewals.
- Select one or more records using the checkbox column.
- Open the Actions dropdown.
- Choose the action you want to run.
- Complete any requested fields and save.
Inline actions and shortcut buttons
- Some actions appear directly in the list instead of inside the Actions dropdown.
- For example, Check Membership Status and Connect to Stripe can appear as inline actions.
- The Pay shortcut on Membership Renewals opens the renewal and then launches Manually Register Dues Payment.
Why you may not see every action
- The actions you see depend on your role.
- Some actions are available only on the detail page.
- Some actions appear only when the record is in the right status.
- Some actions are limited to Administrators.
Common member actions
- Check Membership Status re-checks renewal processing for a member.
- Email Account Information sends the member their account-information email.
- Register Payment records a payment from the member record.
- Send User Password Reset Email sends a reset link to the member's email address.
- Assign Membership Type updates the selected member account to a different membership type.
- Send Email Notification sends an active renewal reminder to selected members.
Common renewal and membership type actions
- Manually Register Dues Payment records a payment for one renewal.
- Connect to Stripe attempts to connect a membership type to Stripe if the automatic connection did not happen.
Tips before you run an action
- Read the confirmation message before saving.
- If an action opens a form, fill in every field that matters to the task.
- If you are working with payments, review the amount due before saving.
- If you are sending reminder emails, check whether the member has opted in to receive electronic communications.
- If you are using a bulk action, double-check which records are selected.
