The problem

Untaxed lines hide on long invoices

Tax reviewers line up NetSuite invoice lines against Avalara AvaTax transaction lines by hand. On a long invoice an untaxed line or missing tax code is easy to miss, and every item still has to be traced to its AvaTax tax code.

Without PopdockAI

  • Open the invoice in NetSuite and the transaction in AvaTax
  • Pair lines by item or description by hand
  • Look up each item's tax code in AvaTax
  • Miss the zero tax line near the bottom

With PopdockAI

  • Invoice lines and AvaTax lines are read side by side
  • Lines are paired by item code, then description
  • Zero tax, blank tax codes, exemptions and unmatched lines are flagged
  • Read-only on both NetSuite and AvaTax

Prompt
**Objective:** For NetSuite invoice `{invoice-number}`, compare its lines with the AvaTax transaction lines and show which lines were taxed and under which tax code.

**Step 1: Read the invoice lines**

Call `netsuite-get-invoiceitem` with `document-number` = `{invoice-number}`. If nothing returns, stop and say no lines were found. Keep `item`, `item-description` and `rate` for each line.

**Step 2: Find the AvaTax transaction and its lines**

Call `avalara-avatax-get-transaction` with `code` = `{invoice-number}` and `company` = `{company}`. If nothing returns, report the invoice as not in AvaTax and stop. Take the transaction `id` and call `avalara-avatax-get-transaction-line` with `transaction-id` set to it.

**Step 3: Match lines**

Match each NetSuite line to an AvaTax line by `item` against `item-code`. For lines with no match, fall back to `description`. For each matched line, call `avalara-avatax-get-item` with `item-code` to read its `tax-code`; skip this call if the item was already looked up.

**Step 4: Report**

Table per line: item, NetSuite rate, AvaTax `line-amount`, `taxable-amount`, `exempt-amount`, `tax`, `tax-code`, and a flag. Flag lines with no AvaTax counterpart, lines with zero tax, lines with a blank `tax-code`, and lines where `exempt-amount` is not zero.

**Rules & Guidelines:**

* Tools starting with netsuite-get are on the netsuite MCP server. Tools starting with avalara-avatax-get are on the avalara-avatax MCP server. Both servers must be connected.
* This prompt is read-only. Call only the get tools named above. Never call any avalara-avatax Action tool (for example `avalara-avatax-transaction-create`, `avalara-avatax-transaction-adjust`, `avalara-avatax-transaction-void` or `avalara-avatax-transaction-commit`), and never create or change anything in NetSuite.
* If `{company}` is empty, omit the `company` parameter on AvaTax calls.

**Validation:**

* If line counts differ between the systems, say so before the table.
* Item names in NetSuite may include a parent prefix; match on the text after the last colon if the exact name finds nothing.

Who it's for

One answer, three teams that use it

Tax reviewers

Review an invoice line by line

Every line shows taxable, exempt and tax amounts with flags, so you can see what went wrong without matching rows by hand.

Check each line on NetSuite invoice INV-2207 against AvaTax and flag any with zero tax or no tax code.

Billing specialists

Answer customer tax questions

When a customer queries the tax on an invoice, see which lines were taxed, exempt or missing in AvaTax.

Why is tax lower on NetSuite invoice INV-3150? Compare its lines with Avalara AvaTax.

Tax managers

Find items with no tax code

Blank tax codes are flagged per line, pointing you to the items that need setup in AvaTax.

Which lines on NetSuite invoice INV-1188 have a blank tax code or an exemption in AvaTax?

Your AI tool

02

Read

It reads the invoice lines, then the AvaTax transaction and its lines.

netsuite-get-invoiceitem
avalara-avatax-get-transaction

03

Match

It pairs lines by item code, falls back to description and reads each tax code.

avalara-avatax-get-item

04

Report

You get a line table with flags, and any line count mismatch is stated first.
