  <p>CiviCRM doesn't do it automatically (issue I can't fix until now) and it would avoid me to do it manually every time a new member paid with credit card :-(</p>
  
  <p>I can identify the right status :</p>

Comments.Text: Guillaume, I think you need to provide a bit more information about your workflow and what membership statuses you have set up. Surely you don't want to permanently override the status as "new".

Comments.Text: I think there is something I haven't understood with this parameter :-( because "new" is supposed to not last for ever. I have to check this better. thanks for alerting.

Title: Civirule - Action : force override status
ThreadText: # Civirule - Action : force override status
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2019-10-04)
  
  Is it possible to override permanently a status from 'pending' to 'new' with a civirule ?
  
  CiviCRM doesn't do it automatically (issue I can't fix until now) and it would avoid me to do it manually every time a new member paid with credit card :-(
  
  I can identify the right status :
  
  > Contact has Membership of Status and Type : Membership type Est l'un de Adhésion annuelle & Membership status Est l'un de Pending
  
  but I don't find out how to override the status
  
  have a great day
