This page is designed to give information for new HCoop treasurers to learn how to do their jobs. Also see [[https://lists.hcoop.net/pipermail/hcoop-discuss/2010-October/002470.html|Adam's mail]] about treasurer responsibilities.

Treasurer permissions which need to be given:
 * `money` group
 * `paypal` sub-account with rw access
 * Add treasurer's google account (recommend new account to keep hcoop stuff separate) to merchant account under `Settings -> Users`

== Paypal payments from members ==
When: soon after being notified by paypal of a payment.

 * [[https://members.hcoop.net/portal/money|portal financial page]] -> lookup address for paypal -> follow steps

 * Log in to [[http://paypal.com|paypal]]
 * Click 'details' on the transaction, scroll down.
 * Log into the [[https://members.hcoop.net/portal/money|money portal]]
 * Enter the email address listed in paypal into the portal to lookup the member. You need to enter the whole address.
 * Everything should be filled in: Payment type: `Paypal`, no extra description needed, date should be today, enter '''Net amount''' from the transaction page, `Member` should be filled in properly (double check), hit `Add`.
 * Return to the paypal overview, select `Mark as shipped` for that transaction. The page will reload, scroll down specify you don't have tracking information, confirm it. Check on the main page that it is marked as shipped.
 * Archive the transaction, if everything has been taken care of.


== Google Checkout payments from members ==
When: soon after being notified by google checkout of a payment.
 * Log into the merchant account
 * You'll see the order in the inbox. Click it.
 * Click "charge order" to initiate the charge. You need to do this before the authorization expiration date (about one week).
 * Log into the [[https://members.hcoop.net/portal/money|money portal]]
 * Enter the gmail address listed in google checkout into the portal to lookup the member. You need to enter the whole address.
 * Payment type: `Google Checkout`, no extra description needed, date will automatically be today, enter the '''net revenue''' from the merchant page (it will be revealed after charging) for "amount", `Member` should be filled in properly (double check), and hit `Add`.
 * Then, go to the merchant page and hit `shipped` - no info needed, just do "send confirmation".
 * Go back to the inbox and hit `Archive` on the payment, if everything has been successfully taken care of.

== Transfer paypal -> hcoop bank ==
When: whenever paypal balance gets high, usually every FIXME

Leave $50 or so in paypal to cover refunds issued.

== Mothly tasks: Dues, balance reminders, freezing ==

=== Charge dues ===
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`.

=== Check freezing / booting list ===


=== 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:
   * [[https://members.hcoop.net/portal/money?cmd=freezeworthy|Freese-worthy]] - lists people whom, after the next payment cycle, will be within one month of being booted.
   * [[https://members.hcoop.net/portal/money?cmd=bootworthy|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

...and include instructions on what to do with your remaining funds
(donate to the co-op or refund via PayPal or Google Checkout).
}}}



== New member ==
When: when you get the first payment from a new member.

 * 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
 * It will give you a command to run on `deleuze`. Run it in a shell.
 * FIXME this is unfinished.



== 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 google checkout: They must have previously made a payment using checkout. 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:
 * Retire the member: `Admin sidebar` -> `Members` -> `retire` the member.
 * Run this command on `deleuze` 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,

- Richard Darst

== 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`

== Changing passwords ==
 * On deleuze (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.
