UpdateMembershipRecord cron not updating
February 16, 2010, 10:20:49 pm
Hi,
I wanted to give our users a 6-month Grace period and to update our Expired members accordingly. I've run the UpdateMembershipRecord.php cron job following the instructions at http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Membership+Types. I ran it in my browser, as I'm a rookie with the command line.

The script ran and printed " Membership records updated. (Done)." But when I check a member who expired 5 months ago, they still show as Expired. Am I missing something?

I don't think it will update 'backwards'. I think it will update current to grace to expired based on your rules but I don't think you can use that job as a way to change expired to grace based on new rules

Ok, thanks, Eileen. So, if I have a large number of records, is my best option a SQL query changing members between a certain date range from 'Expired' to 'Grace'?
