Perplexity

Check live warehouse availability via MCP Server

Your agent reads current stock levels across physical locations and virtual bins using the `get_sku_stock_status` tool. You ask Claude Desktop if a specific item is ready to ship, and it queries the exact on-hand, allocated, and available-to-sell quantities. Searching for items works just as fast. The `search_products_by_sku` and `get_all_stock_availability` tools let your AI client scan the entire catalog and return real-time warehouse data. You avoid logging into the main dashboard just to see if a product is in stock.

Track fulfillment progress instantly

Tracking orders happens directly in your chat interface when you trigger the `get_sale_order_details` tool. Claude pulls individual line items, shipping addresses, and invoice data for any specific transaction you need to review. Getting a broader view takes seconds. You run `list_sales_orders` to grab customer IDs, total values, and current statuses like drafted, packed, or shipped. This means you can spot stuck orders right from the desktop app before a customer complains.

Pull vendor and customer profiles

Managing vendor relationships starts with the `list_crm_suppliers` tool, which grabs primary contact info, default currencies, and payment terms. You can also track inbound shipments by having Claude run `list_purchase_orders` to see exactly what is ordered versus received. Client data is equally accessible. The `list_crm_customers` tool returns metadata including contact names, company details, and credit limits. You get the exact profile data you need for your next email draft without switching screens.
