Custom is an e-commerce solution for small to medium-sized businesses that provides:

* a web front-end for customers and Point-of-Sale staff to place orders and:
* for warehouse staff to manage stock;
* for Accounts and Sales staff to manage and generate orders and invoices;
* for Purchasing Managers to keep track of suppliers and competitive pricing.


Custom presently consists of:

* A collection of CGI web scripts, written in Python, to present Products, Sales Order Processing, Invoicing, Stock Control, Accounts and Catalogue Presentation.
* An example web site front-end that is simple and obvious to use, in stark contrast to many over-busy sites today. With many e-commerce web sites the web site slows the customer's browser, not the internet connection.
* A Back Office program that takes the load off the web server and performs real-time batch processing of Orders, Invoices, Printing and E-Commerce credit card verification.
* Database classes that do not care what type of SQL database you use (with MySQL and MS-SQL 2000 presently supported).
