brc_create_sales_invoice_gen_ref

Creates a sales invoice in Big Red Cloud with an auto-generated reference, requiring explicit user confirmation of counterparty and analysis category before posting.

Instructions

Creates a BRC sales invoice with an auto-generated reference using a raw BRC payload. Use when the company is configured for auto-generated sales references. Draft previews include a Missing or not provided section for blank customer phone or email only — warnings only, do not invent values. In the raw payload, the BRC "Note" field (JSON note) defaults to the customer name (BRC customer "Name" / JSON name) when omitted and must never be set to the product name; the BRC "Delivery To" address (JSON deliveryTo) is only included when explicitly provided. Optional. BRC "Note" field on the sales document (JSON field note). Leave blank to default it to the customer name (BRC customer "Name" / JSON name). Do not use the product name as the note. Only set this when the user explicitly provides a note. Optional. BRC "Delivery To" address (JSON field deliveryTo). Leave blank unless the user explicitly provides a delivery address. Do not invent or default a delivery address (for example "MCP Test"). Requires saleRepId and saleRepCode. Do not use default or demo sales rep values. If missing, list sales reps or ask the user to choose one before creating. Requires analysisCategoryId and accountCode from a Sales Analysis category on each product line. Do not default to CR01/Customer or the first listed category. Set confirmCrAnalysisCategory=true only after the user confirms a CR account code is intentional. When Gross Price Entry is enabled for sales invoicing, this tool requires priceBasis. Use priceBasis "gross" when unit prices are VAT-inclusive/gross, or priceBasis "net" when unit prices are VAT-exclusive/net. Do not tell the user to disable Gross Price Entry if they have provided priceBasis. Do not invent productId values and do not use productId 0 or 1 as placeholders. productId 0 and 1 are treated as placeholders and are blocked at runtime before the draft preview and before posting. If a product line is needed, first call brc_list_products and use a real product from the connected company. If no suitable product exists, ask the user whether to create/select a product, or use a service/non-product line only if the endpoint supports it. Sales invoices must use Sales VAT rates. Purchase/non-Sales VAT rates are blocked before draft and before posting, even if the VAT percentage matches. First call without confirmWrite: true returns confirmation_required and a payload preview — show a plain-English draft in chat, then retry with confirmWrite: true only after explicit user confirmation in a later message. Passing preflight is not confirmation. Also requires confirmCounterpartyExplicit: true once the user has explicitly named or confirmed the customer/supplier in the current conversation. Do not reuse a counterparty from an earlier draft without that confirmation.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
payloadYes
priceBasisNoRequired when Gross Price Entry is enabled. Use `gross` when unit prices are VAT-inclusive/gross. Use `net` when unit prices are VAT-exclusive/net.
companyNameYesCompany context name, for example YOUR-COMPANY-NAME.
confirmWriteNoMust be true only after a plain-English draft has been shown in the current conversation and the user explicitly confirmed posting (for example yes, create it / post it now / confirm). Never set true on the first call or because the user initially asked to create something.
confirmCrAnalysisCategoryNoSet true only after the user confirms a CR sales analysis account code is intentional for this product line.
confirmCounterpartyExplicitNoMust be true only after the user explicitly named or confirmed the customer, supplier, or other counterparty in the current conversation. Never set true because a customer or supplier appeared in an earlier draft, was inferred from context, or was filled in without the user's explicit choice in this conversation.
Behavior5/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It thoroughly discloses behaviors: draft preview with confirmation_required, blocked placeholder product IDs, defaulting note to customer name, requiring confirmCrAnalysisCategory and confirmCounterpartyExplicit conditions, blocking non-Sales VAT rates, and the preflight distinction. This level of detail ensures the agent understands side effects and constraints.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness3/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is verbose and includes some repetition (e.g., note and deliveryTo are described twice). While each sentence adds value, the overall length could be trimmed without losing essential information. The structure is somewhat rambling rather than logically organized.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given the tool's complexity (6 params, nested objects, no output schema), the description is remarkably complete. It covers prerequisites, confirmation flows, common pitfalls, dependencies on other tools, and blocking conditions. The agent has enough information to use the tool correctly without additional context.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 83% (high), so baseline is 3. The description adds meaning beyond schema by explaining nested payload fields (note defaults, deliveryTo optional), clarifying confirmCrAnalysisCategory and confirmCounterpartyExplicit triggers, and noting the required saleRepId and saleRepCode (though not in schema). This adds substantial context for correct parameter usage.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states it creates a BRC sales invoice with an auto-generated reference using a raw BRC payload. It specifies the condition (company configured for auto-generated references), which distinguishes it from sibling tools like brc_create_sales_invoice. The verb 'Create' and resource 'BRC sales invoice' are explicit.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Provides extensive usage guidance: when to use (auto-generated ref), what not to do (do not invent values, do not use placeholder product IDs), and steps to follow (first call without confirmWrite, show draft, then retry). It mentions prerequisites like requiring saleRepId and saleRepCode, and suggests calling brc_list_products. However, it does not explicitly name sibling alternatives for reference generation, which would make it clearer which tool to use when auto-generation is not configured.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
