Update Membership Status Automatically? Where is this function and docs?
December 29, 2008, 07:51:08 pm
Hi there.  Have a situation where the CiviMember Memberships Status are not updating automatically: Current are not switching to Grace at the "end" and Grace are not switching to Expired.  I would like CiviCRM to update all Memberhips Status daily.   My search has until now failed -- why is this not happening automatically and where would I find instructions on how to accomplish this automatically?

I have looked around for the last 30 minutes in both the forums and in the CiviCRM docs and most of the references I can find to this issue discuss a file called UpdateMemberships.php and running it as cron.   But I cannot find this file.  Is it deprecated?

I even went to the ../sites/all/modules/civicrm and did this:
Code: [Select]
find . -name "UpdateMemberships.php" -type fbut found nothing

So what is the situation with getting updating Status automatically set up?

I am running on Drupal 5.14 with CiviCRM 2.0.5.  Please kindly understand that due to a variety of issues, upgrading to CiviCRM 2.1.x is not an option for me at this time.

Thanks.

check: bin/UpdateMembershipRecord.php.txt

you will need to follow the comments and edit the file.

also check: http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Membership+Types

and search for UpdateMembershipRecord.php
