Improving stock, purchasing, and fulfilment inside Salesforce
A telecom provider built a clear, end-to-end setup for inventory, purchasing, and device tracking with our Salesforce solution.
Products:
Client & product
Our client is a Dutch telecom company serving small and mid-size businesses with mobile plans, VoIP services, and a wide range of telecom hardware. Their offering covers both subscription-based services and physical devices, which creates a steady flow of sales orders, returns, replacements, and vendor purchases.
As the company grew, its warehouse and finance teams needed a reliable way to track stock levels, manage assets, plan purchases, and understand how much inventory was moving through the business at any moment. Their sales team also depended on accurate stock data to confirm fulfillment for new orders.
Business challenge
The company had already tried to build a purchasing module with a previous implementation partner, but the setup did not work for their needs. When they came to us, they faced a number of issues:
- No accurate, real-time view of what products were available in the warehouse.
- No reliable way to confirm whether a sales order could be fulfilled immediately or requires a new vendor purchase.
- No unified process for tracking vendor orders, vendor prices, or delivery times.
- No system for tracking serial numbers for devices sold to clients, which limited their ability to support hardware-related cases.
- No purchasing logic that grouped daily vendor orders, causing higher vendor costs and missed bulk discounts.
- No weekly snapshots for finance to understand the inventory value at the end of each financial period.
- No clear method to track assets that moved from the stock to a client’s hands once a subscription or device sale was completed.
- The warehouse team did not have label generation or scanning tools to make their work easier.
- Drop shipment workflows could not be tracked inside Salesforce.

Results achieved
- Full stock visibility inside Salesforce, updated in real time.

- Daily vendor order grouping which gives the company access to better pricing and reduces costs.
- Weekly inventory snapshots for finance, enabling consistent reporting and simple month-end reviews.
- Clear tracking for serial numbers and device history across the entire lifecycle.
- Low-stock alerts that help the team react early and avoid fulfillment delays.
- Accurate valuation of stock using the FIFO method.
- Support for drop shipment, allowing shipments directly from vendors to end customers while keeping all data inside Salesforce.
- Automatic asset creation when devices move from stock to the client’s possession.
- Barcodes and label printing for warehouse operations, allowing scanning of all incoming and outgoing products.
- A purchasing module that gives a precise view of vendor prices, stock value, and upcoming stock needs.
Business impact
The improvements gave our client a faster fulfilment, clearer stock control, and smoother daily work across sales, warehouse, and finance.
Stronger stock control
The client now has a clear view of stock levels, reserved items, and upcoming purchase needs. Teams can make quick decisions without guesswork, and sales, warehouse, and finance work with the same up-to-date information.
Faster fulfilment and lower costs
Sales teams can confirm fulfilment instantly, which shortens the delivery cycle and avoids delays. Grouped vendor orders help the company buy in larger quantities and secure better prices, reducing overall purchasing costs.
Better long term support and reporting
Serial number tracking gives the support team full insight into each device a client uses, including warranty status and service history. Weekly inventory snapshots provide finance with steady reporting inputs and clear visibility into how stock value changes over time.
