When: Second to last day of every month (to get done before the cronjobs mailing reminders)
From the Financial page on the portal, go to charge monthly dues.
- Enter today's date
- Enter the current monthly dues amount ($7 at this writing)
Hit Add.
4.2. Check freezing / booting list
4.3. Manual low balance reminders
When: middle of each month (15th) Why: some ISPs block mail from HCoop since it sometimes forwards spam.
- There are two relevant pages listing members:
Freese-worthy - lists people whom, after the next payment cycle, will be within one month of being booted.
Boot-worthy - lists people whom, after the next payment cycle, will be booted.
- Remember anyone who had made alternative arrangements for paying (e.g., will close their account and don't need anything else to be said)
- See below for mail templates for each category of needs-reminder. The templates also list the payment address to cc.
- Click on the member name. Send a mail to all email addresses listed on the profile, including their hcoop address. If they don't have a non-HCoop mail address, go to their archived membership application to get at least one non-hcoop mail.
- Send the reminders.
Subject: We're about to freeze your HCoop account... Cc: HCoop Payment Reminder Robot <payment@hcoop.net> ...because your balance is too negative. If you want to keep your account, please make a payment here ASAP: https://members.hcoop.net/ Details on how much we recommend paying should be found in the last automated low balance reminder e-mail sent to you. If you don't want your account anymore, please don't stay silent; instead open a ticket here, in the "Financial" category: https://bugzilla.hcoop.net/enter_bug.cgi?component=Financial ...and include instructions on what to do with your remaining funds (donate to the co-op or refund via PayPal or Stripe).
5. New member
When: when you get the first payment from a new member. (You may need to prompt new members for payment if it is not remitted soon after the board votes to accept the application.)
Check if the member authorized us to charge their PayPal account when signing up, and capture the charge if they did.
- You will get a payment notification from the member. When you enter their email address, it will pop up to their member application instead of their usual
From time to time a member gives us the wrong address for paypal. Inspect approved members waiting for an account and attempt to locate the associated user. If there is nothing obvious, contact the payer directly.
Ensure that the sender can be verified. The name must match the application, and either:
- Have a "Confirmed Seller Protection Address", or
- Be from a verified Paypal account
- Select "Add this member"
It will give you a command to run on gibran. Run it in a shell (sudo is not needed). Do not proceed with the next step until this command has been run; it will break the user's account.
- You will be presented with a dialog creating the new user
- Leave defaults
- Enter initial payment amount, description = "Paypal"
- Balances may be funded by another member (e.g. main hcoop member creating an account for a family member, a small organization funded by one account, ...)
6. Member leaving
When: when emailed from bugzilla
- What to do with the balance.
- Member donates balance to hcoop: Make two transactions: one reducing the member's balance (negative payment), and one increasing the coop's balance (positive payment), "balance donation upon leaving".
- Member requests refund via Stripe: They must have previously made a payment using Stripe. Search for one of their past payments, then refund the balance money. Add it to the account ledger - note that there is both the amount subtracted from the account, and a "transaction fee" which you should subtract from the hcoop account if you don't consider it properly.
- Member requests refund via paypal: Click 'Send Money', then fill in the member's paypal-associated email address and the balance money. Click the 'Personal' tab and select the 'Payment owed' radio button, and then click 'continue' and follow through on the payment. Add it to the account ledger.
Retire the member: Admin sidebar -> Members -> retire the member.
Run this command on gibran to close the account
/afs/hcoop.net/common/etc/scripts/destroy-user USERNAME
- Close the bug.
If a member replies to something asking if they can be retired, here is a boilerplate you can reply with:
To close your account, please open a ticket in bugzilla in the "financial" category, and including what you'd like to do with the remaining balance (donation to the co-op or refund): https://bugzilla.hcoop.net/enter_bug.cgi This provides some authentication, and a permanent record, for the close request. Thank you, - HCoop Treasurer
7. Freezing and unfreezing
Freezing: /afs/hcoop.net/common/etc/scripts/freeze -a f USERNAME
Unfreezing: /afs/hcoop.net/common/etc/scripts/freeze -a u USERNAME
8. Unretiring a user
If a delinquent user contacts you with payment after you've retired him in the ledger but before the delete scripts are run:
- follow the 'Groups' link in the Admin box
- add the user to the 'paying' group
- revoke the user from the 'retired' group
9. Changing passwords
On gibran (kerberos master), run sudo kadmin.local -p root/admin, then run cpw <username>@HCOOP.NET
Admin users only: For local passwords, ssh to the machine and just use passwd <username>. Right now local passwords are out of date and not used, so you don't actually need to do this.
10. Reimbursing Expenses
- Enter a payment for the member with the description "reimbursement for ${thing}"
- There is no need to enter a negative transaction from the coop balance. The person incurring an expense on behalf of the coop is merely giving the coop goods instead of cash.
11. Filing E-postcard Tax Form
When: yearly, After January 1st and before April 15th
When creating the account to file, it is for you personally, not for the coop, so each new treasurer will need to create their own account.
12. Handling Email
The treasurer can receive quite a bit of mail at times. ClintonEbadi recommends filtering the mail into a single folder. Some procmail rules to achieve this (place into ~/.procmail.d/procmailrc ):
NOTE: these rules alone are not sufficient for email handling. Refer to MemberManual/Email/Procmail for information on how to setup, and safely test.
