Vendor Statement Open Items

Supplier statement reconciliation MCP server

Compare a supplied supplier statement with an accounts-payable open-item export. Find invoices or credit notes present on only one side, conflicting outstanding amounts or dates, and repeated references that cannot be paired safely. This local MCP server preserves every original row and explains each finding. It checks two supplied open-item lists; it does not reconcile opening/closing balances, match payments, connect to an ERP, read PDFs, or approve payment.

Built by theluckystrike. MIT. Support: support@zovo.one.

Try it before installing

Run the free supplier statement example in your browser. Use the synthetic example to inspect missing items and amount/date discrepancies. The browser proof and this server use the same comparison core. No account or API key is needed for the local server's free tier. Product and installation options.

These comparisons require the relevant source data. They do not retrieve missing documents or authorize a payment. Full diagnostics and CSV remain free; the paid upgrade removes only the limit on saved report count.

Install

Requires Node.js 18 or newer and an MCP client. Claude Desktop can open the supplier-statement-check.mcpb v0.25.0 package. Other clients can build the source below. The npm package is not published; npx @theluckystrike/mcp-supplier-statement-check is not an installation route.

git clone https://github.com/theluckystrike/mcp-servers.git

cd mcp-servers npm install node scripts/bootstrap-timezone.mjs npm run build --workspace @theluckystrike/mcp-license npm run build --workspace @theluckystrike/mcp-supplier-statement-check

These commands build only the shared license dependency and this server. Replace /absolute/path below with the source checkout location. If your MCP client cannot find node, use its full executable path.

Claude Desktop: merge into mcpServers in ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS, or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json on Windows:

{"mcpServers":{"supplier-statement-check":{"command":"node","args":["/absolute/path/mcp-servers/servers/supplier-statement-check/dist/index.js"]}}}

Claude Code:

claude mcp add supplier-statement-check -- node /absolute/path/mcp-servers/servers/supplier-statement-check/dist/index.js

Cursor: merge into .cursor/mcp.json in the project or ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{"mcpServers":{"supplier-statement-check":{"type":"stdio","command":"node","args":["/absolute/path/mcp-servers/servers/supplier-statement-check/dist/index.js"]}}}

VS Code: put the entry under servers in .vscode/mcp.json:

{"servers":{"supplier-statement-check":{"type":"stdio","command":"node","args":["/absolute/path/mcp-servers/servers/supplier-statement-check/dist/index.js"]}}}

Windsurf's legacy Cascade agent: use the Claude Desktop mcpServers entry in ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json. That file applies to Cascade; a different agent can use a different configuration route.

Cline: open MCP Servers, Configure, Configure MCP Servers, and add:

{"mcpServers":{"supplier-statement-check":{"type":"stdio","command":"node","args":["/absolute/path/mcp-servers/servers/supplier-statement-check/dist/index.js"],"disabled":false,"autoApprove":[]}}}

These are local stdio configurations. This server has no hosted endpoint or browser chat connector. Reconnect your client, call license_status, then run the example below. Tool discovery alone does not verify a comparison.

Tools

A missing item and a conflicting amount

Call supplier_statement_check with these synthetic inputs:

{

"as_of": "2026-10-26", "statement_records": [ {"record_id":"S1","entity_id":"UK-1","supplier_id":"V-9","currency":"USD","document_type":"invoice","document_reference":"INV-001","document_date":"2026-10-01","outstanding_minor":12500}, {"record_id":"S2","entity_id":"UK-1","supplier_id":"V-9","currency":"USD","document_type":"invoice","document_reference":"INV-002","document_date":"2026-10-02","outstanding_minor":20000}, {"record_id":"S3","entity_id":"UK-1","supplier_id":"V-9","currency":"USD","document_type":"credit_note","document_reference":"CR-003","document_date":"2026-10-03","outstanding_minor":5000} ], "ledger_records": [ {"record_id":"L1","entity_id":"UK-1","supplier_id":"V-9","currency":"USD","document_type":"invoice","document_reference":"INV-001","document_date":"2026-10-01","outstanding_minor":12500}, {"record_id":"L2","entity_id":"UK-1","supplier_id":"V-9","currency":"USD","document_type":"invoice","document_reference":"INV-002","document_date":"2026-10-04","outstanding_minor":19000}, {"record_id":"L4","entity_id":"UK-1","supplier_id":"V-9","currency":"USD","document_type":"invoice","document_reference":"INV-004","document_date":"2026-10-05","outstanding_minor":7000} ], "save": false }

The result has four groups: one match, one discrepancy with both amount_mismatch and date_mismatch, one item only in the statement, and one only in the ledger. Every supplied row remains available. The credit note's amount is positive and is not netted against invoices. No balance, loss or recoverable amount is calculated. If you add another INV-001 within either side's exact scope, its entire group becomes ambiguous_reference; the tool does not choose the convenient amount pair.

Exact input contract and comparison rules

Supply a real YYYY-MM-DD as_of date and two arrays, each with 0–1000 records. At least one side must contain a record. The date declares the intended common snapshot; the tool cannot verify export freshness and does not filter rows by date. Prepare both lists with consistent open-item scope before comparing them.

Each record requires record_id, entity_id, supplier_id, uppercase three-letter currency, document_type (invoice or credit_note), document_reference, real ISO document_date, and positive safe-integer outstanding_minor. IDs/references are 1–160 characters without surrounding whitespace or control characters. IDs must be unique within a side; the two sides may use the same ID. Unknown fields, impossible dates, year 0000, zero/negative/decimal/unsafe amounts and over-limit arrays are rejected. Currency syntax is checked without an external currency list.

Amounts are currency minor units: USD 12500 means $125.00. Credit notes use positive absolute outstanding amounts and compare only with credit notes. Neither side is required to use a common supplier name, but its exact supplier_id must agree. Different entities, suppliers, currencies and document types remain separate.

The join key is exact (entity_id, supplier_id, currency, document_type, document_reference). Leading zeros, punctuation, case, accents, Unicode forms and lookalike characters remain significant. No supplier inference, reference cleanup, greedy amount matching, payment allocation or currency conversion occurs.

Missing rows and disagreements can result from export timing or scope. Repeated references can be legitimate. Even complete agreement between supplied lists is not proof that the supplier balance is correct: two incomplete exports can agree. The status no_discrepancies_in_supplied_open_items makes only that limited observation. Saved reports never become hidden cross-call history; include both lists every time.

Groups and rows are deterministically sorted. Each source row belongs to exactly one group; the engine does not expand every possible record pair. A group refers to source IDs qualified by their statement/ledger side, so identical IDs across sides cannot overwrite evidence. No network or telemetry requests are made.

Free evidence, previews and CSV

Every check returns retrieval.report_id. Unsaved previews use preview: and remain in memory for 30 minutes for the last two checks in this process. A third check, restart or expiry may evict a preview; resubmit the free check. Saved UUIDs persist on disk. Preview data is not written to a browser or filesystem.

report_page supports statement_records, ledger_records, groups, and group_members. Group pages contain summary metadata and side-specific member counts. Read complete source members with section:"group_members" and the exact group_id. Follow next_offset until null. Pages and CSV remain free even after the saved-report cap is reached.

Responses use a 512 KiB escaped MCP text-envelope budget. Larger reports return a paginated overview; pages can contain fewer rows than requested to fit that budget. CSV uses one row per original source record with its side, original fields, group and reasons. Formula-like text is escaped; JSON source values are unchanged. Export returns CSV text, never writes to a supplied filename, and repeats the header on each page. Retain one header when joining pages. Follow actual returned and next_offset values rather than assuming the requested count was returned.

Free and Pro

save:true at the free cap returns the diagnostic and free preview with saved:false, save_error:"free_saved_report_cap", and an upgrade link. Delete a saved report to reuse a slot. Storage failures also preserve the diagnostic.
