Members

Manage contacts, organisations, venues, and user accounts in the CRM.

Overview#

Members is the universal entity in Signals — contacts, organisations, venues, and user accounts are all stored as members differentiated by their membership_type. This unified approach allows shared contact details, custom fields, and relationships across all entity types.

Members List#

Route: /members

Browse all members with search, type filtering, archive filtering, sorting, and bulk operations. The list is powered by the reusable DataTable component.

• Search — filter by name (debounced, case-insensitive)
• Type filter — chip buttons to show All, Organisations, Venues, or Contacts with counts
• Archive filter — chip buttons to show Active, Archived, or All members
• Column sorting — click column headers to sort by Name, Type, Status, or Created date
• Column filtering — inline filters on Name (text), Type (select), and Status (select)
• Column toggle — show or hide individual columns via the toolbar toggle button
• Export — export the current filtered result set to CSV via the toolbar
• Pagination — 12 members per page (configurable: 12, 24, 48)
• Row selection — checkbox selection with shift-click range support
• Bulk actions — archive selected members, or merge when exactly 2 are selected

Row Actions#

Each row has a dropdown menu with the following actions:

• View — open the member detail page
• Edit — open the member edit form
• Archive — soft-delete the member with a confirmation modal (can be restored later)
• Restore — available when viewing archived members; restores the member to active

Bulk Actions#

Select multiple members using checkboxes, then use the bulk action bar:

• Archive Selected — archives all selected members with a confirmation modal
• Merge — appears only when exactly 2 members are selected; opens the merge modal

Merge Modal#

Selecting exactly 2 members and clicking Merge opens a merge modal. Choose which member to keep as the primary record; the secondary member's relationships, contact details, custom fields, and other associations are transferred to the primary, then the secondary is archived. Both members must have the same membership_type.

Adding Members#

The toolbar Add Member button opens a dropdown to create an Organisation, Contact, or Venue.

Member Detail#

Route: /members/{member}

The detail page shows a header with the member's name, type badge, and status badge, followed by tab navigation for managing related data.

Overview Tab#

The overview tab displays a 3-column layout with:

• Left — description, quick actions panel, key contacts or organisations panel, account details summary
• Centre — stat cards (CLV, active orders, YTD revenue, outstanding balance), AI recommendations, activity timeline
• Right — customer health score gauge, health factor progress bars

Tabs#

Note: Additional tabs for custom fields and relationships are accessible as sub-pages via the Information tab routes.

Creating & Editing Members#

Routes: /members/create, /members/{member}/edit

Contact Details#

Each member can have multiple addresses, emails, phones, and links. These are polymorphic — the same system is shared across members, stores, and future entities.

Addresses#

Each address can have a label (e.g. "Head Office"), street, city, county, postcode, country, type (from the AddressType list), and a primary flag. Only one address can be primary per member.

Emails#

Each email has an address, type (from the EmailType list), and a primary flag.

Phones#

Each phone has a number, type (from the PhoneType list), and a primary flag.

Links#

Each link has a URL, optional display name, and type (from the LinkType list).

Relationships#

Contacts can be linked to organisations (and vice versa) with a relationship type label (e.g. "employee", "contractor") and an optional primary flag. The relationships tab shows all linked members and allows adding new relationships.

Custom Fields#

Custom fields configured for the "Member" module appear on the Custom Fields tab, grouped by their custom field group. Fields display their current value or "No value set" for empty fields.

Merge#

Two members of the same type can be merged into one. The primary (surviving) member retains all its own data; the secondary member's relationships, contact details, custom field values, and other associations are transferred to the primary, then the secondary is archived. Merge is available from the bulk action bar (select exactly 2 members) and via the API.

Anonymise#

A member's personally identifiable information can be erased to comply with data removal requests. Anonymisation replaces the member's name and description with anonymised placeholders, removes the icon, and deletes all linked emails, phones, addresses, and links. This operation is irreversible. Available via the API only; a user cannot anonymise their own member record.
