The organization operates seven tightly integrated business functions spanning membership lifecycle, financial processing, tax compliance, e-commerce, payment reconciliation, workflow automation, and analytics — all consolidated on Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & SCM and Customer Engagement.

01

Membership Lifecycle Management

End-to-end membership lifecycle — enrollment, renewals, reinstatements, and transfers — is automated through Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement. Over 60 data entities sync in real time between the Sitecore membership portal and D365 CE via Dual Write. A renewal engine API automates renewal processing for 270,000 members globally, eliminating manual CSR intervention.

02

Financial Processing & Revenue Recognition

High-frequency membership payments trigger automatic revenue journal creation in Dynamics 365 Finance.

Real-Time Tax Compliance (Avalara Integration)

The Avalara tax engine is integrated bidirectionally with D365 Finance — retrieving real-time tax rates at every taxable transaction and posting tax amounts automatically. Every membership fee, product sale, and order charge posts with current, jurisdiction-accurate tax data without manual tax tables or Finance team intervention.

E-Commerce Order Management & Fulfillment

Orders placed via the Sitecore portal sync into Dynamics 365 SCM via API integrations — triggering automated order lifecycle workflows. Fulfillment is dispatched automatically to UPS, USPS, and 3PL partners from D365 SCM, with shipping status updates returned to the portal without manual handoffs.
