Perplexity

Instantly audit field operations inside Claude Desktop

`list_appointments` pulls the current schedule straight into your local chat interface so you can see where your technicians are right now. You don't have to open a heavy ERP client or wait for sync cycles to find out who is stuck on a job. Combining this with `list_time_markers` lets your agent flag schedule conflicts before they mess up your day. It reads the raw timeline data directly through the MCP and highlights overlaps that need manual adjustment.

Map resources to open tasks with this MCP Server

`list_resources` gives your agent the exact roster of available field techs, vehicles, and equipment sitting in your ERP. Instead of digging through database tables, you ask Claude to filter your workforce by skills or location. The agent cross-references this with `list_tasks` to match the right person to the right job. You get a clear list of recommended pairings based on actual ERP data, ready for your dispatch team to action.

Inspect job details without leaving your chat

`get_job` fetches the exact specifications, customer notes, and service histories for any work order in your system. You get the raw facts instantly, helping you make quick decisions when a customer calls with an emergency. When you need a broader view, `list_jobs` displays every pending project waiting for a slot on the board. Your agent parses this backlog to help you prioritize high-value contracts.
