Handling Incomplete Applications

When the members submit their application and it is processed according to the Member application workflow.
Once the application is submitted, the member will be able to login and access member profile page. If the payment process has not been finalized (either due to manual payment selected or not completing the online payment), member will have the choice of:

• Retrying the online payment
• Canceling pending application
  

• To retry online payment, member should click on [Resubmit payment] button. The member will be transfered to a secure online payment page. See: Payments by credit cards and PayPal
• The member can also cancel a pending application by clicking on the [Cancel application] button. Note that pending member record will be removed from the database.
