Case study from March 2020

Industry software with various product lines for the energy and mineral oil trade is the core business of Xpoint Software GmbH, which was founded in 1990. The complete software is tailor-made for the mineral oil trade and for all types of trade. The industry solution X-energy, for example, is a solution for mineral and energy trading in German-speaking countries. The X-oil mineral oil package forms the backbone for all other software modules, such as filling station accounting (X-tanken), warehouse management software (X-LVS) and graphical scheduling support (X-dispo). The variable software concept is used by both family businesses and large chain stores with 400 user workstations in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The suggestions and specifications for further development come directly from the users.

Xpoint's customers are primarily from the mineral oil industry. From heating oil to aviation fuel, from 24-hour card billing at self-service petrol stations to scheduling systems for heating oil companies. Users of the software require precise information on their customers, both in the consumer and corporate customer sectors. It should be possible to query creditworthiness quickly, automatically and at any time with just one click directly from an application.

Xpoint decided to implement an interface to SCHUFA Holding AG, the leading solution provider of credit and information services for companies and consumers. The interface has been continuously developed by Xpoint, and credit reports can now also be retrieved fully automatically via the interface.

Real-time information on private and business customers facilitates risk management and enables immediate decisions to be made. Xpoint Software GmbH and SCHUFA have agreed on a long-term cooperation in order to strengthen the trusting and cooperative partnership in the interests of customers and to exploit synergies.

With the SCHUFA interface, Xpoint users receive clear-cut B2C and B2B information that can be queried automatically in real time directly from an application. This allows risks to be calculated precisely and opportunities to be exploited to the maximum.
