## Quick answer

For membership organizations, start with a **renewal-contact eligibility worksheet** for the membership administrator. Keep household and individual records distinct when preparing renewal or benefit questions for staff. Righthand can help prepare the administrative draft from inputs you authorize; staff review its evidence and decide the next action.

## Three desk tasks

### 1. Prepare renewal inputs

Show current renewal dates and unanswered contact questions.

### 2. Compare communication preferences

Flag obsolete reminder lists that conflict with current source preferences.

### 3. Route benefit inquiries

Prepare eligibility questions without granting or denying access.

## Who owns each handoff?

| Input | Proposed assistant deliverable | Responsible person |
| --- | --- | --- |
| approved membership extract and communication preferences | renewal-contact eligibility worksheet with record references | membership administrator |
| Missing or contradictory fields | Exception and source-linked question | Named source owner |
| Approved next step | Reviewable coordination draft | Staff authorize external action |

## Worked example: three records, three outcomes

The following inputs and outputs are synthetic, not customer results. Read them as a test packet for this desk.

| Illustrative source row | Useful worked output |
| --- | --- |
| Membership M-61: household and individual records overlap in a copied renewal sheet. | Keep the record types explicit and ask staff to resolve the renewal owner. |
| Membership M-62: member opted out of a communication channel that an old reminder list still uses. | Flag the outdated channel instruction and prepare no send until staff confirms permission. |
| Membership M-63: benefit request arrives before the source confirms current entitlement. | Route an eligibility question to staff rather than grant or deny the benefit automatically. |

**Correction check:** Verify membership type and current communication preference before preparing renewal contact. Attendance or a familiar name should not substitute for the record governing benefits.

## Complete first-run brief

> Prepare a renewal-contact eligibility worksheet from approved membership extract and communication preferences. Cover October 12–16, 2026; use America/Los_Angeles for date cutoffs. Include these source fields: member ID, record type, renewal date, channel preference, requested benefit, owner. Trigger: Monday at 9 AM. Output: a source-linked Markdown draft in my private review thread, grouped by next action and owner. Reviewer: the membership administrator. Flag missing fields or conflicting versions. Leave eligibility, financial changes, benefit access, and communications approval with staff. Do not send messages, change source records, or spend money. Result check: Check member record type, preference state, and the owner of each benefit decision.

Replace the illustrative dates and source locations before running this task. Use an approved extract when a native connection and its exact actions have not been verified; the extract remains a snapshot, not live synchronization.

## First-week check and failure boundaries

Try one renewal-notice preparation cycle and compare the draft list with current member preferences and staff entitlement checks. Household records may contain several people. A prior contact channel can become inappropriate after a preference change. Leave eligibility, financial changes, benefit access, and communications approval with staff. When an input changes, rerun the affected comparison and retain its source reference; do not overwrite the authoritative operational record with a draft.
