Paper Invoicing

What do you mean by “integration” in this context?

Is what you want an automatic means of sending out a renewal invoice, or is there something else you have in mind?

A member applies to join on line.
They want a PAPER invoice sent to their home address.
The sign the invoice and pay by cheque – old style.

S2M
– records their application
– provides a PDF invite to print and manually post
– on receipt of signed invoice and paid cheque, we manually enter in S2M that the applicant has agreed to terms and paid up.
– account is thence handled by S2M with annual renewal paper invoicing.

Robert,

S2M
– records their application

They would have to be using Open Registration, in which case that’s actually automatically done by WordPress, not specifically s2Member. The thing you’d need to be careful with is if you have more than one level of membership, then you’d need some extra field to enable users to specify it.

– provides a PDF invite to print and manually post

You would need to use a plugin that generates PDF invoices to do that.

– on receipt of signed invoice and paid cheque, we manually enter in S2M that the applicant has agreed to terms and paid up.

Yes, you can do that with s2M. The only thing you’d need to be careful with is if you have more than one level of membership.

– account is thence handled by S2M with annual renewal paper invoicing.

As I thought, this would be the tricky bit. At the moment, s2M doesn’t send out renewal reminders anyway. You need an add-on for that. So I think you’d either need to speak to the developer of that add-on to see if he could provide that functionality, or else see if the invoices plugin you used for the initial setup could provide renewal reminders too.

You would, of course, also need to manually adjust the EOT for the user after renewal.

Thanks so much, KTS915 for your comprehensive and detailed response.
