ERPNext MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol server for ERPNext integration

This is a TypeScript-based MCP server that provides integration with ERPNext/Frappe API. It enables AI assistants to interact with ERPNext data and functionality through the Model Context Protocol.

Features

Resources

  • Access ERPNext documents via erpnext://{doctype}/{name} URIs
  • JSON format for structured data access

Tools

  • authenticate_erpnext - Authenticate with ERPNext using username and password
  • get_documents - Get a list of documents for a specific doctype
  • create_document - Create a new document in ERPNext
  • update_document - Update an existing document in ERPNext
  • run_report - Run an ERPNext report
  • get_doctype_fields - Get fields list for a specific DocType
  • get_doctypes - Get a list of all available DocTypes

Configuration

The server requires the following environment variables:

  • ERPNEXT_URL - The base URL of your ERPNext instance
  • ERPNEXT_API_KEY (optional) - API key for authentication
  • ERPNEXT_API_SECRET (optional) - API secret for authentication

Development

Install dependencies:

npm install

Build the server:

npm run build

For development with auto-rebuild:

npm run watch

Installation

To use with Claude Desktop, add the server config:

On MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json On Windows: %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{ "mcpServers": { "erpnext": { "command": "node", "args": ["/path/to/erpnext-server/build/index.js"], "env": { "ERPNEXT_URL": "http://your-erpnext-instance.com", "ERPNEXT_API_KEY": "your-api-key", "ERPNEXT_API_SECRET": "your-api-secret" } } } }

To use with Claude in VSCode, add the server config to:

On MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Code/User/globalStorage/saoudrizwan.claude-dev/settings/cline_mcp_settings.json On Windows: %APPDATA%/Code/User/globalStorage/saoudrizwan.claude-dev/settings/cline_mcp_settings.json

Debugging

Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, debugging can be challenging. We recommend using the MCP Inspector, which is available as a package script:

npm run inspector

The Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser.

Usage Examples

Authentication

<use_mcp_tool> <server_name>erpnext</server_name> <tool_name>authenticate_erpnext</tool_name> <arguments> { "username": "your-username", "password": "your-password" } </arguments> </use_mcp_tool>

Get Customer List

<use_mcp_tool> <server_name>erpnext</server_name> <tool_name>get_documents</tool_name> <arguments> { "doctype": "Customer" } </arguments> </use_mcp_tool>

Get Customer Details

<access_mcp_resource> <server_name>erpnext</server_name> <uri>erpnext://Customer/CUSTOMER001</uri> </access_mcp_resource>

Create New Item

<use_mcp_tool> <server_name>erpnext</server_name> <tool_name>create_document</tool_name> <arguments> { "doctype": "Item", "data": { "item_code": "ITEM001", "item_name": "Test Item", "item_group": "Products", "stock_uom": "Nos" } } </arguments> </use_mcp_tool>

Get Item Fields

<use_mcp_tool> <server_name>erpnext</server_name> <tool_name>get_doctype_fields</tool_name> <arguments> { "doctype": "Item" } </arguments> </use_mcp_tool>

remote-capable server

The server can be hosted and run remotely because it primarily relies on remote services or has no dependency on the local environment.

This is a TypeScript-based MCP server that provides integration with ERPNext/Frappe API. It enables AI assistants to interact with ERPNext data and functionality through the Model Context Protocol.
