Update Member Information

Update Member Information is a process that updates all relevant information for a Member Account: point status, tracking information, and Frequent Buyer Program ledger entries.

This process can be run manually by selecting Member Management - Periodic Activities. The process should be set up to run automatically by a scheduler.

Coupons are only issued when this process is run. When a member has bought enough items to get a coupon, the coupon cannot be used until after this process has been run.
Note: This also means that the status information on the POS is not correct from the moment of posting a transaction until the process has been run.

The Update Member Information process can be run automatically when the transaction is posted, if web services are used for transferring the transaction from the POS to the head office (see Member Management, Periodic Activities).
