If there are any unpaid sessions for the next week, you can use the membership to mark one session as Paid when the attendance restrictions reset. To learn how to reconcile unpaid visits, see Reconciling an unpaid visit.
  • If you select Automatically reconcile unpaid sessions when attendance restrictions reset, any upcoming unpaid visits within the attendance restriction period will be automatically reconciled with paid visits whenever you add new visits are added to the membership.
