Constituency end date not populated

Hi, I'm having trouble tracking down how Tessitura determinces the End Date for new constituencies. We're getting new 'Current Donor' constituecies created without an End Date, which causes trouble because they never show up as being inactive.

Here's what we see happening. A new donation comes in for a constituent, and it creates a membership. The membership is set up to generate a constituency, which it does successfully except the constituency's End Date is set to 00/00/00.

For the membership level we tested, we have the following settings..

Suspend: blank

Cancel: blank

Expires: 13

Renew: 4

Lapse: 3

Reinstate: 22

 

I'd appreciate any help here.

 

Thanks,

John

  • Thanks Dale. That helps. It sounds like I might need to write a custom job to generate constituencies for active memberships.

    John,

    Constituencies that are created as the result of a Membership always show with a blank end date as long as the Membership is still active or lapsed.  Once the Membership becomes inactive or is deactivated, an end date will be created for the constituency.
