    I have a site that offers just 10 day subscriptions.

    After the subscription expires I delete the user from the database using "Delete Old Records"

    I pay affiliates by offline check the first of each month for sales made the previous month.

    My question is: If an affiliate sends me a new customer on the 5th, and that new subscription expires on the 15th and is deleted from the system on the 16th, will the commission earned by the affiliate still show in the "Affiliate Commissions" area when it is time for me to issue offline checks on 1st of the next month?

    Meaning -- Does deleting a customer also delete the commission to the affiliate if done before affiliate paid?

    Why would you be deleting the customers? Wouldnt you want to sell more stuff to them?

    I have the same question as Jimmy. (David sometimes people adamantly want to be deleted and then the question that Jimmy asked is very relevant and effect how much money is due to an affliate). If I delete a member then I don't want to pay the affliate for that person because I had to refund them; however, amember is showing a commission due to the referring affliate. How do I set amember to NOT give credit to the referring affliate?

    I believe you would first need to go into the members account and cancel the affiliate commission- then you can delete the member out.

    1. If you will delete user commission still will be in database.
    2. If you want to delete commission as well, first go to amember CP -> Edit User -> user Payments -> Edit and void commission, then delete user.
