Check the source club

Open Affiliation and locate the correct club. Each row identifies its name, network and code; verify these before creating the next association year.

Add club creates a different club and therefore does not offer member carry-over.

Open New campaign

On the club row, select New campaign. The club name, network and code stay fixed; the suggested year is the next one and dates follow the network calendar.

Review the year and range. The dialog has not been saved yet.

Choose whether to carry members

Enable Copy members from the previous campaign, with membership awaiting renewal when the new register should start from last year’s members.

The capture shows the option selected but does not press Save. No campaign or member has been created.

Save and complete renewals

After checking the period and year, press Save. Carry-over creates rows in the new campaign awaiting renewal; it does not renew or issue cards with the association.

Open Members & cards in the new campaign and update each person with the actual number, validity and status when received.

What you have achieved

  • You prepared a new association year for the correct club.
  • You understand that carry-over starts renewal work without claiming external issuance.

Troubleshooting

The carry-over option is missing

Open New campaign from an existing club row. Add club creates the first campaign and has no previous year to copy.

Did carry-over renew the cards?

No. It creates rows to work on in the new campaign; complete the details only after renewal with the network.
