Memberships not inheriting to employees of member companies
June 29, 2011, 03:59:13 pm
This has me very confused. I have a very simple membership scenario. I have about 800 member companies (organizations) which I uploaded. I then uploaded about 3,000 individuals, all of which had the relationship of "employee of" with the companies. I also uploaded a few hundred other orgs and their employees which are not member companies.

All companies (members and non-members) have a group of "main contacts".

Only about 10% of the individuals inherited the membership (by relationship) after the upload. This means that when we do a query of the "main contact" for all members, we only get 10% of the correct individuals in the query.

I can find no noticeable difference between the member orgs where the inheritance was inherited properly and where it was not. This is a major pain because the client needs to reach out to the specific group of member contacts immediately and it is impossible to do the query. This missing link is crippling.

This is my first CiviCRM foray. I mostly like it, but this sort of came out of left field at me. I tracked down a discussion from a couple of years ago where a similar discussion took place (http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-3627, but found nothing current on this bug.

I also don't have the pdf links in my database, but I will try to figure that one out later. Seems like an install script bug.

I am on 4.0.1 and D7.


[evening postscript] I also noticed the problem is consistent. Of my 12 identically configured membership types(the only difference being price), only one is passing on the membership by relationship. All 12 have the Employee of Relationship Type turned on.

OK...shame on me...there is a difference Employee of versus Employer of. That one that worked has it reversed so I messed up. So .. I see the memberships cannot be edited for this attribute....is there anyway of changing this without re-creating the memberships and assigning them again to the accounts?

OK...I exported the memberships. Created them properly and re-imported them...done....

Just checking that you do mean the Employer Of not the Employee Of - makes a big difference.
