# coreFORCE - Memberships: Skipping missed payments on recurring membership renewal

||| coreFORCE Advanced and Enterprise Only


This is a preference called RECURRING_PAYMENT_SKIP_MISSED, which will skip over an missed recurring payments, meaning the customer will not be billed for prior missed payments.

When a customer has had trouble with their payment (ie: expired credit card) and had to update their card to renew their membership they will not be charged for the months they missed while the payment method was inactive.

**You can turn this on in:**

System > Client Preferences

 
Click "Add" and then select "Skip Missed Recurring Payments"

Leave the Preface Qualifier blank

For the "Client Setting" field select "True"
