The problem
Shoppers invoiced on account end up with two ledger records
When a WooCommerce shopper needs to be invoiced on account, someone sets them up in Sage Intacct by retyping their details. Without checking by email and name first, a second customer gets created for someone already there.
Without PopdockAI
- Find the shopper or their guest order in WooCommerce
- Search Sage Intacct by email, company and name
- Judge whether a similar record is the same person
- Retype the details into a new customer
With PopdockAI
- The WooCommerce customer or latest order read
- Sage Intacct searched by email, billing company and name
- Possible wrong matches shown for you to judge
- One customer created after you confirm, read back
The prompt
Use this prompt

**Objective:** Make sure the WooCommerce customer with email `{customer-email}` exists as a customer in Intacct, creating one with payment term `{payment-term}` (default: the company default) and customer ID `{intacct-customer-id}` (default: auto-numbered) only if no match exists. Write nothing without the user's confirmation.
**Step 1: Read the WooCommerce customer**
Call `woocommerce-get-customer` with `email` = `{customer-email}`. Keep `customer-id`, `first-name`, `last-name`, `email`, `billing-company`, `billing-phone`, `billing-city`, `billing-state`, `billing-postal-code` and `billing-country`.
If there is no account (a guest checkout), call `woocommerce-get-order` with `customer-email` = `{customer-email}` and `max-records` = 1 and take the `billing-first-name` and `billing-last-name` from the most recent order. If neither returns anything, report that the email is unknown to WooCommerce and stop.
**Step 2: Check Intacct for an existing customer**
Try, in order, and stop at the first single match:
1. `intacct-get-contact` with `email` = the WooCommerce email, then `intacct-get-customer` with `customer-name` = the contact's `company-name`.
2. If the WooCommerce customer has a `billing-company` (from `woocommerce-get-customer`), `intacct-get-customer` with `customer-name` = that company.
3. `intacct-get-customer` with `customer-name` = the WooCommerce first and last name.
Treat a match as confirmed when the Intacct customer's `email` equals the WooCommerce email (ignoring case) or is empty. If it holds a different email, report it as a possible wrong match instead of using it.
If a confirmed match exists, report its `customer-id`, `customer-name`, `status` and `email` and stop: there is nothing to create. If a possible wrong match or several candidates come back, list them and ask the user whether any of them is this customer before going further.
**Step 3: Build the new customer**
* `name` and `print-as`: the `billing-company` if set, otherwise the first and last name.
* `email`, `phone` (from `billing-phone`), `city`, `state` and `zip` (from `billing-postal-code`).
* `payment-term` = `{payment-term}` if set, otherwise leave it empty.
* `customer-id` = `{intacct-customer-id}` if set, otherwise leave it empty so Intacct auto-numbers.
The WooCommerce customer read does not return a street address or carry the country to Intacct, so say that `address-line-1` and the country are left for the user to complete in Intacct.
**Step 4: Confirm, then create**
Show the user every value from Step 3. Only after a yes, call `intacct-create-customer` once with them. Leave `status` unset so Intacct applies its default.
**Step 5: Confirm**
Call `intacct-get-customer` with the returned `customer-id` and show its `customer-id`, `customer-name`, `email` and `status`.
**Rules & Guidelines:**
* `woocommerce-get-customer` and `woocommerce-get-order` are on the woocommerce server. `intacct-get-contact`, `intacct-get-customer` and `intacct-create-customer` are on the intacct server.
* The only write tool this prompt may call is `intacct-create-customer`, once, after confirmation. Do NOT call `intacct-update-customer`, `intacct-create-contact`, `woocommerce-update-customer` or any other write tool.
* Never create a second customer for a name that already exists in Intacct; ask the user instead.
**Validation:**
* If `billing-country` is not the Intacct company's country, point it out before the confirmation.
* If the create call fails (for example the payment term does not exist, or the customer ID is taken), show the error, do not retry with changed values, and stop.Who it's for
