Sometimes members want to contribute more to your organization, or perhaps they want access to more perks than their current member level gives them, so they may ask you to 'upgrade' their membership to a higher membership level well before their membership expires. You can give them a higher membership level in Agile without issuing them a new member number and apply their previous payment to cover some of the cost of the new level.
You could always sell them a renewal on the new level instead of upgrading them. However a customer may be less willing to renew if they recently bought their membership, and applying their past payment to a higher level is a good way to thank them for their support and loyalty to your organization.
These steps will show you how to open a member's last membership order, change the price to the higher level's price, and charge them for the difference in memberships.
