Generate DIAN Invoices with Claude Desktop

The `create_invoice` tool stamps and validates Colombian electronic invoices right from your chat. You tell your AI client to bill a specific client ID, and it handles the required line items and DIAN compliance without making you open a web dashboard. Tracking those sales happens through `list_invoices` and `get_invoice`. You can ask Claude to pull up yesterday's billing run, check tax rates via `list_taxes`, or verify if a specific customer paid by cross-referencing `list_payments`.

Manage Clients and Suppliers

The `create_contact` tool registers new entities with their required Colombian identification type like NIT, CC, or CE. Your agent classifies them accurately as either a client, a supplier, or both based on your prompt. Finding existing records requires the `list_contacts` and `get_contact` commands. You'll get back the legal name, address, phone number, and email without leaving the conversation interface of your MCP client.

Track Inventory and Supplier Bills

The `create_item` tool adds physical products with stock management or intangible services to your catalog. This setup feeds directly into future purchase orders and billing cycles. Monitoring stock levels and outgoing cash takes seconds. The `list_items` command shows what you have, while `list_bills` and `list_bank_accounts` let you check what you owe suppliers against your current cash position.
