name: member-workflow description: Guides implementation of member lifecycle workflows including registration, renewal, engagement tracking, and duplicate detection for 20,000+ members across national, state, and local NABIP chapters. Use when working on member onboarding, status changes, tier upgrades, or automated renewal processes.

Member Workflow

Establish scalable member management processes to streamline operations across the NABIP association's multi-tier structure.

When to Use

Activate this skill when:

• Implementing member registration workflows
• Building automated renewal reminder systems
• Creating duplicate member detection logic
• Designing member status change workflows (active → inactive, etc.)
• Implementing engagement scoring algorithms
• Building self-service member portals
• Working on membership tier transitions (Local → State → National)

Member Lifecycle States

Status Workflow

Copypending → active → inactive
    ↓         ↓         ↓
cancelled  suspended  expired

State Transition Rules

1. pending → active

   • Payment confirmed
   • Profile completed
   • Email verified
   • Chapter assignment confirmed

2. active → suspended

   • Payment failure (grace period: 30 days)
   • Policy violation flagged
   • Admin action required

3. active → inactive

   • Membership not renewed after expiration
   • Member requested pause
   • Chapter transfer in progress

4. inactive → active

   • Renewal payment processed
   • Reactivation request approved
   • Chapter transfer completed

5. Any → cancelled

   • Member requested cancellation
   • Refund processed
   • Data retention policy applied

Registration Workflow

Copy// Example: Member registration with validation
interface MemberRegistration {
  personalInfo: {
    firstName: string
    lastName: string
    email: string
    phone: string
  }
  membershipInfo: {
    memberType: "national" | "state" | "local"
    chapterId: string
    referralSource?: string
  }
  paymentInfo: {
    amount: number
    paymentMethod: string
    transactionId: string
  }
}

async function registerMember(data: MemberRegistration) {
  // Step 1: Validate against duplicate detection
  const duplicateCheck = await checkDuplicateMember(data.personalInfo.email)
  if (duplicateCheck.exists) {
    return { success: false, error: "Member already exists", existingId: duplicateCheck.id }
  }

  // Step 2: Validate chapter hierarchy (local must have state parent, etc.)
  const chapterValid = await validateChapterAssignment(
    data.membershipInfo.chapterId,
    data.membershipInfo.memberType
  )
  if (!chapterValid) {
    return { success: false, error: "Invalid chapter assignment for member type" }
  }

  // Step 3: Create member record with 'pending' status
  const member = await createMemberRecord({
    ...data.personalInfo,
    ...data.membershipInfo,
    status: "pending",
    engagementScore: 0,
    joinedDate: new Date()
  })

  // Step 4: Process payment
  const payment = await processPayment(data.paymentInfo)
  if (!payment.success) {
    // Rollback member creation or mark as payment_failed
    await updateMemberStatus(member.id, "cancelled")
    return { success: false, error: "Payment failed" }
  }

  // Step 5: Send welcome email sequence
  await sendWelcomeEmail(member.email, {
    memberType: data.membershipInfo.memberType,
    chapterName: await getChapterName(data.membershipInfo.chapterId)
  })

  // Step 6: Activate membership
  await updateMemberStatus(member.id, "active")

  // Step 7: Calculate initial engagement score
  await calculateEngagementScore(member.id)

  return { success: true, memberId: member.id }
}

Renewal Workflow

Automated Renewal Reminders

Copy// Trigger points for renewal reminders
const RENEWAL_REMINDER_SCHEDULE = {
  firstReminder: 60, // days before expiration
  secondReminder: 30,
  thirdReminder: 14,
  finalReminder: 7,
  gracePeriodEnd: 30 // days after expiration
}

async function processRenewalReminders() {
  const today = new Date()

  // Find members approaching renewal
  const membersNeedingReminder = await db
    .select()
    .from(members)
    .where(
      and(
        eq(members.status, "active"),
        sql`DATE(renewal_date) - DATE(${today}) IN (60, 30, 14, 7)`
      )
    )

  for (const member of membersNeedingReminder) {
    const daysUntilRenewal = calculateDays(member.renewalDate, today)

    await sendRenewalEmail(member.email, {
      daysRemaining: daysUntilRenewal,
      renewalFee: calculateRenewalFee(member.memberType),
      renewalLink: generateRenewalLink(member.id)
    })

    // Log reminder sent
    await createActivityLog({
      memberId: member.id,
      action: "renewal_reminder_sent",
      metadata: { daysUntilRenewal }
    })
  }

  // Handle expired memberships
  const expiredMembers = await db
    .select()
    .from(members)
    .where(
      and(
        eq(members.status, "active"),
        sql`DATE(renewal_date) < DATE(${today})`
      )
    )

  for (const member of expiredMembers) {
    const daysExpired = calculateDays(today, member.renewalDate)

    if (daysExpired > RENEWAL_REMINDER_SCHEDULE.gracePeriodEnd) {
      // Move to inactive
      await updateMemberStatus(member.id, "inactive")
      await sendGracePeriodExpiredEmail(member.email)
    }
  }
}

Duplicate Detection

Smart Matching Algorithm

Copyinterface DuplicateCheckResult {
  exists: boolean
  confidence: "high" | "medium" | "low"
  matchedRecords: Array<{
    id: string
    matchReason: string[]
    similarity: number
  }>
}

async function checkDuplicateMember(email: string, name?: string): Promise<DuplicateCheckResult> {
  const matches: any[] = []

  // Exact email match (highest confidence)
  const emailMatch = await db
    .select()
    .from(members)
    .where(eq(members.email, email.toLowerCase()))
    .limit(1)

  if (emailMatch.length > 0) {
    return {
      exists: true,
      confidence: "high",
      matchedRecords: [{
        id: emailMatch[0].id,
        matchReason: ["exact_email_match"],
        similarity: 1.0
      }]
    }
  }

  // Fuzzy name matching if provided
  if (name) {
    const nameMatches = await db
      .select()
      .from(members)
      .where(sql`SIMILARITY(${members.name}, ${name}) > 0.7`)
      .limit(5)

    for (const match of nameMatches) {
      matches.push({
        id: match.id,
        matchReason: ["similar_name"],
        similarity: calculateStringSimilarity(name, match.name)
      })
    }
  }

  // Phone number matching (if available in future)
  // Additional matching logic...

  return {
    exists: matches.length > 0,
    confidence: matches.length > 0 ? "medium" : "low",
    matchedRecords: matches
  }
}

Engagement Scoring

Scoring Algorithm

Copyinterface EngagementFactors {
  eventAttendance: number       // 0-30 points
  emailInteraction: number      // 0-20 points
  courseCompletion: number      // 0-25 points
  communityParticipation: number // 0-15 points
  paymentHistory: number        // 0-10 points
}

async function calculateEngagementScore(memberId: string): Promise<number> {
  const factors = await gatherEngagementData(memberId)

  const score = {
    events: Math.min(factors.eventsAttended * 5, 30),
    emails: Math.min(factors.emailClickRate * 20, 20),
    courses: Math.min(factors.coursesCompleted * 12.5, 25),
    community: Math.min(factors.forumPosts * 3, 15),
    payment: factors.onTimePayments ? 10 : 0
  }

  const totalScore = Object.values(score).reduce((sum, val) => sum + val, 0)

  // Update member record
  await db
    .update(members)
    .set({
      engagementScore: Math.round(totalScore),
      lastEngagementCalculation: new Date()
    })
    .where(eq(members.id, memberId))

  return totalScore
}

// Run engagement calculation weekly
async function scheduleEngagementUpdates() {
  const activeMembers = await db
    .select({ id: members.id })
    .from(members)
    .where(eq(members.status, "active"))

  for (const member of activeMembers) {
    await calculateEngagementScore(member.id)
  }
}

Common Workflows

Tier Upgrade (Local → State)

Copyasync function upgradeMemberTier(memberId: string, newTier: "state" | "national") {
  // Validate upgrade eligibility
  const member = await getMember(memberId)
  if (member.memberType === newTier) {
    throw new Error("Already at requested tier")
  }

  // Calculate price difference
  const upgradeFeeDiff = calculateTierUpgradeFee(member.memberType, newTier)

  // Process additional payment if needed
  if (upgradeFeeDiff > 0) {
    const payment = await processUpgradePayment(memberId, upgradeFeeDiff)
    if (!payment.success) {
      throw new Error("Upgrade payment failed")
    }
  }

  // Update member tier
  await db
    .update(members)
    .set({
      memberType: newTier,
      tierUpgradeDate: new Date()
    })
    .where(eq(members.id, memberId))

  // Send confirmation email
  await sendTierUpgradeEmail(member.email, newTier)

  // Log activity
  await createActivityLog({
    memberId,
    action: "tier_upgraded",
    metadata: { fromTier: member.memberType, toTier: newTier }
  })
}
