Direct Bill / City Ledger - Membership Billing

---

Membership Billing is used for clubs with memberships and allows for one-button fixed charge posting across the board to all customers designated for those charges.

Membership Billing settings in A/R are unique from typical hospitality direct billing.  If you need to process hospitality direct billing and club membership billing, we suggest that you set up the hospitality direct bill in the Hotel company and club membership in a different company so that they can be configured separately.  See Your Company Setup.

Set up Transaction Codes

You may post up to four automatic fixed charges per customer but you may set up as many as you wish.  You may wish DUE1 to post membership dues to one customer and DUE2 to another customer.  Although  only four codes may apply per customer for automatic fixed charges, you may manually post additional charges.  Each transaction code must have a fixed dollar amount in order to post automatically.  See example below.



For complete Transaction Code Setup instructions see Control Files Setup.

Set up Customers

The Customer Setup screen is different for Membership Billing than for normal hotel Direct Bill.  See below.



"Account type (O/B):" should be B for membership billing.

"Corp account code:" and "Statement to" are not used.  Leave them blank unless advised otherwise by Execu/Tech.

"Auto charge codes: " allows up to four transaction codes per customer for automatic fixed charge posting.  In the example above, DUES (Membership dues) and DOCK (dockage) are selected to post automatically.
