    1
    Search for and click on the Member wishing to terminate their membership.
    2
    Verify the draft date of the Member. For those that draft on the 1st of the month, select the last date of the month as their termination date. See next steps for if a member is drafted monthly on the 15th.

    Select "Terminate Membership"
    5
    Use the dropdown to select a reason for the termination, enter any necessary notes, and enter the Membership End Date. For those drafting on the 1st of the month, choose the last day of the month. For those drafting on the 15th, choose the date the member has paid through (14th of the month).
    6
    In the third step, you will review any past-due balances that the member has. Keep these in mind to either handle prior to the cancellation process or immediately after. Click the "No Changes, Continue" button.

    10
    Click the button to return to the "Membership Information" page.

    For those billed monthly on the 15th, you must also update the Next process date so that their new fees do not generate on the 1st of the month. To do this, click the Edit pencil next to the Next Process Date at the top left of the Membership Information page.
    12
    Edit the Next Process Date to one month past the month of termination. This will ensure that the Unit does not generate dues on the 1st of the month since they will still be active at that point. Type the reason as "Termination" and click the "Update" button.
    13
    You will automatically be brought back to the Membership Information page where you can now see this membership is set to terminate on 9/14/23.
