Just summarizing what others have already detailed for you yucantantoo. Sorry for my delay in responding been away from the office and internet for the last week.
What you are describing is not an EFT membership but rather an instore annual membership with monthly installment payments paid instore.
You can setup the initial membership valid for the year (365 days) and with a default price of the initial month ... in the example above $20. The balance of $220. would be recorded within the Inhouse Charge Options on the Financial Tab of the sales code as the Credit Amount and $20 as the Payment Amount. Only the $20 currently charged will be included in Sales.
You then need a separate sales code to record the monthly installments. On this sales code also connect it to the appropriate Division and Department that you wish the monthly $20 record. This special sales code (ie: POB30) Payment on Balance - 30 days, in the Credit option enter 30 in the Days until due as summrtan suggested.
When the client pays the next $20 installment AND ONLY when they pay that exact amount the due date of the next payment will be advanced by 30 days.
If the client fails to pay the $20 installment by that due date the Balance will be reflected as RED / Past Due and this will stop the client for tanning on any Package and/or Membership until the the installment is paid.
Couple of cautions using this InHouse Charge approach:
1. If the client does not pay the whole installment the Payment amount will be reduced to the balance of that installment owing and you will ultimately have to use Master Edit to put the Payment amount back to the standard amount
2. If clients can "charge" other items as well as this annual membership with will not work well for you because those additional charge items will distort the Installment process and make it VERY difficult to manage,
If you need further help, give Helios Tech Support a call or post further question once you have given this a try
