Owners of the prestigious Sharon Gun Club wanted to build a system that would help them manage operations, which includes memberships (including registration and renewals), allow share purchasing and rentals, simplify shooting range scheduling, process payments, and generate invoices and reports.
To fulfill these requirements, a comprehensive custom ERP system was developed with several functionalities. One of the primary features of this system is that it allows users to manage their shares in the gun club, including renting them out and selling them. The share management system also permits the Gun Club administrators to monitor share history, share owners and the status, quantity, and prices of the shares.
Another key feature of the custom ERP system is shooting range scheduling, which allows members to view a calendar of the ranges, schedule their visits, and book a range or a class. This system has streamlined scheduling calendars for the club, reducing the time that was otherwise taken up by phone calls and facilitating the coordination between staff and members.
Furthermore, for the process to work properly, the whole ERP system can perform services such as membership renewal notifications, invoicing and tracking, class schedule administration, and online store management. It is also integrated with a full-fledged Financial Module. The booking management system developed for this project allows the club staff to schedule on-range courses, plan events, coordinate memberships and shares of the club, produce invoices, and generate reports.
In addition to all the above-mentioned features, the system is also integrated with an E-commerce functionality. The online store comprises various product categories and allows users to purchase merchandise, order lunch and rent target machines online.
Finally, with a large member and shareholder base, multiple ranges to manage simultaneously, and running a full-fledged e-commerce store, the gun club owners sought a tool for better handling the financial side of shooting range scheduling. This is accomplished using an advanced financial module that is also part of the Custom ERP system. This module manages membership renewals, tracks shares, and accounts for the course, merchandise, and other purchases.
As a result of this integrated system, complete with online scheduling, invoice generation, membership management, course and event registration, reporting system, and financial module, Sharon Gun Club owners have received a solution that has facilitated club operations, reduced staff involvement, and offered a simple and intuitive interface for members to use.

Currently, there are various commercially available software applications to facilitate e-commerce functionality such as Shopify. These have a fixed set of features that are meant to work with straightforward e-commerce operations. However, in more complicated scenarios, these lack features to meet the unique needs of individual businesses.
Complex e-commerce solutions were designed and tailored to meet specialized requirements such as customizable price margins, connectivity to product builder tools, quantity-based discount calculations and connection to CRM and ERP systems. Order placement features included support for QR codes or scanner guns. Additionally, special rate calculators and communication with multiple shipping carrier databases were designed.
