Post Dues to Predict income?
Hey guys,
We've been trying to create an accurate budget and need to be able to forcast our income/sales from memberships come the 1st of the month...
When I go to 'post dues' for June 1st, and click 'preview' however, it still seems to be taking into account all of the members who are on freeze as if they were going to continue paying (which they obviously aren't)
Is there another way to accurately portray the forecasted membership sales for the following month?
Thanks so much for the help.

Hello Abby,
Have you thought about signing up for Rock Gym Pro support? If you were signed up, I could login to your computer and go over Rock Gym Pro with you. What is the name of your facility?
That being said, post dues does take into account your freezes for the month. Most facilities have created a price for the freeze in settings. Is your freeze fee setting at ZERO? Or are you using the default price?
When you ask, ..."forecasted membership sales for the following month", you mean for the future? Or the past?
You can do a Zout report of your previous month membership sales, a sales report for your membership sales or you could run a query of all our members and export as a .txt file and open the .txt in Excel and sortnand manipulate the data.
There are multiple ways to get the information and sure I am missing one or two of the methods.
Thank you
Amy
Hi Abby,
The POST DUES feature cannot take into account future status changes. I generally do a quick estimate by going into View -> Status Changes and seeing all the terminations/freezes scheduled for the next billing date and multiplying times $40 (the difference at my gym) and subtracting that from the number shown when you post dues into the future.
Hope that helps
Andy
Thanks for the help!
Would it be possible to try to add this option in for future RGP updates?

Unfortunately, I do not have plans to add this feature as it is exceedingly complex to "simulate" all the possible future changes to a database that may effect dues.
