Saberpoint’s Wireless Industry add on provides one system of record for companies in the Wireless Distribution/Retail industry through the integration of SAP’s Business One ERP with their POS systems, Payroll providers, Bank accounts, Wireless Carrier Inventory ordering systems, along with automating the commission receivable and commission payable calculations. This can be leveraged by Wholesale (companies with Subdealers or Operators) and Retail companies affiliated with wireless carriers including AT&T, Cricket, T-Mobile, Metro by T-Mobile, Verizon, Tracfone, Boost Mobile and Dish Wireless among others.

  • Lack of integration between financial and POS systems
  • Manual reconciliation of each store/sub-dealer account
  • Lease and property management
  • Monthly commission reconciliation for commissions received from the wireless carriers and commissions due to retail employees
  • Managing payroll costs within wireless carrier guidelines for optimal staffing
