Sales Rep Management in Mauritania
The short answer
Managing sales reps rests on three measurable things rather than impressions: what each rep sold, how much they collected against receivables, and where they were during the working day. The system gives each rep explicit permissions — which customers they see, whether they may sell on credit or cash only, and whether they may sell below list price and up to what maximum discount — turning control from personal supervision into a rule applied automatically to every invoice. Rep performance in Mauritania is measured by sales and collection in Ouguiya (MRU) against a stated target, not by hours spent on the road.

Rep management and permissions
Define each rep's permissions: who can grant a discount and how much? Who sells on credit? Role control (manager/supervisor/accountant) prevents manipulation and protects your margins in Mauritania.
Rep tracking and route planning
Follow reps' locations and routes to organize coverage and cut wasted time between Nouakchott and surrounding areas. Tracking raises the number of productive visits per day.

Collection, receivables and statements
Record every payment (cash/transfer/cheque) and link it to the customer statement in Ouguiya (MRU) automatically. Set a credit limit per customer and get an instant alert when it is exceeded — before debt turns bad.
Raising collection rates and cutting overdue debt is one of the fastest ways to improve a distributor's cash flow.
