Deleting a Non-current membership

Former Member
Former Member $organization

Have any of you found a way to delete a membership that is "deactivated"?  We have one constituent whose gift was processed to the wrong fund which created a membership that was incorrect.  The gift was adjusted out accordingly and the membership became deactivated but still shows on their record which may be confusing.  Has anyone else come up with a solution to this?

Thanks! Kristin

  • Hi Kristin,

    As far as I know, you're pretty much unable to delete it once the membership has been deactivated.  I do find that making a note in the notes area of that membership is helpful, since they're easily visible when you look at the history tab.  Depending on your business practices, you might consider deleting the membership in such cases before you adjust the gift, so the errant membership won't appear in the history.
