Membership is one of those features of the Nonprofit Starter Pack that seems to be shrouded in mystery. Sure, you’ve read the getting started guide and you have all the fields on your screens, but how do you actually manage your membership lifecycle using the NPSP?
The key is understanding that the NPSP is relatively passive out of the box – when you create a new membership donation, and enter dates in the Membership Start and Membership End date fields and choose a Membership Level and Membership Origin, those dates and selections will get copied up to the contact’s record. But they won’t get carried over into next year’s membership update automatically.
