Frequently asked questions
What authentication does SAP S/4HANA require?
SAP S/4HANA uses Communication Arrangements with a dedicated Communication User. You create a technical user in the Fiori Launchpad, assign it to a Communication System, and link it to the appropriate Communication Scenario (e.g. SAP_COM_0008 for Business Partners).
Can I create purchase orders through the agent?
Yes. The create_purchase_order tool posts to the A_PurchaseOrder OData endpoint. Provide the supplier, purchasing organization, plant, material, quantity, and price — the agent returns the PO number on success.
Does it support querying custom OData services?
Absolutely. The query_odata tool executes GET requests against any OData v4 service exposed via your Communication Arrangement, including custom CDS views. Full $filter, $expand, and $select support is included.
Can I check stock levels across multiple plants?
Yes. The get_material_stock tool queries the A_MaterialStock OData service, returning current stock quantities by plant and storage location. You can filter by material number, plant, or storage location.
How does Claude Desktop discover MCP tools?
When Claude Desktop starts, it reads the claude_desktop_config.json file and connects to each configured MCP server. It calls the tools/list endpoint to fetch the schema for every available tool, then surfaces them as clickable options in the chat interface via the 🔌 icon.
What happens if the MCP server is temporarily unavailable?
Claude Desktop handles disconnections gracefully. if the server is unreachable at startup, the tools simply won't appear. Once the server becomes available again, restarting Claude Desktop will re-establish the connection. There is no timeout penalty or error loop.
Can I connect multiple MCP servers simultaneously?
Yes. You can add as many servers as you need in the mcpServers section of the config file. Each server appears as a separate tool provider, and Claude can use tools from multiple servers in a single conversation turn.
Is there a limit on the number of tools per server?
Claude Desktop can handle hundreds of tools per server. However, for optimal LLM performance, Vinkius servers are designed to expose focused, well-documented tool sets rather than overwhelming the model with too many options.
Does Claude Desktop support Streamable HTTP transport?
Yes. Claude Desktop supports both SSE (Server-Sent Events) and the newer Streamable HTTP transport that Vinkius uses. Simply provide the server URL. Claude auto-negotiates the transport protocol.
Server not appearing after restart
Ensure the JSON is valid (no trailing commas). Check the file path: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\\Claude\\ (Windows).
Authentication error
Verify your Vinkius token is correct. Go to cloud.vinkius.com to regenerate it if needed.
Tools not showing in chat
Click the 🔌 icon at the bottom of the chat input. If it shows 0 tools, the server may still be connecting. wait a few seconds.
