Once your AI assistant is connected to your ERP, the biggest obstacle is often the empty chat box: you don’t know what to ask. So we put together thirty questions that accountants, directors and sales reps use most. Copy them and change the period or the company name. Each one comes with a note on what it returns.<\/p>\n
Specific questions with a period, a company and a clear output work best<\/strong>, for example \u201cWhich purchase invoices are due this week? Sort them by amount.\u201d The AI finds the data directly in your ERP, so you don’t have to export anything. Always treat the numbers as a working draft, though, and check them before you send or post anything.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The questions work in Claude and ChatGPT once the AI is connected to your ERP through an MCP server<\/a>. We describe the setup for POHODA<\/a>, Helios iNuvio<\/a> and ABRA Flexi<\/a>.<\/p>\n The AI reads the data in your ERP. If a document is missing or posted incorrectly, the AI can’t tell, and the answer will be as inaccurate as the data. Always compare figures for tax returns, month-end or reminders with the report in your ERP. The AI is not a replacement for accounting or tax advice either: it prepares the material, the decision is yours.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n By default the AI only reads data and writes nothing to your ERP. Access is set per module, so a sales rep doesn’t see what the chief accountant sees, and payroll is usually not exposed at all. What to check before letting AI near your data is covered in AI security over company data<\/a>.<\/p>\n We have MCP servers for POHODA, Money S4\/S5, Helios iNuvio, KARAT, ABRA Gen, ABRA Flexi and Odoo. The full list is on the MCP servers for ERP<\/a> page. Module names differ between systems, but the questions work the same way.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n No. You ask in plain language, the same way you would ask a colleague. Copy the questions from this article and change the period or company name.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n The numbers come straight from your ERP, they are not estimates. They are as reliable as the data in your ERP. For important outputs such as a VAT return, compare them with the report in your system.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n Only if you explicitly allow the payroll module. Payroll and other sensitive areas are usually not exposed at all.<\/p>\n<\/details>\nReceivables and reminders<\/h2>\n
