The problem

Store customers and book clients drift apart each week

Someone exports BigCommerce customers and FreshBooks clients and compares emails in a spreadsheet. The lists drift apart each week, and customers missing from the books or clients missing from the store mean missed invoices.

Without PopdockAI

  • Export customers from BigCommerce and clients from FreshBooks
  • Compare emails in a spreadsheet
  • Check both directions by hand
  • Miss clients that share one email

With PopdockAI

  • Each recent customer is looked up in FreshBooks by email
  • FreshBooks clients are checked against BigCommerce the same way
  • Matched, missing on each side and no-email customers come with counts
  • Ambiguous matches are listed with ids, and nothing is changed

Prompt
**Objective:** Compare BigCommerce customers created since `{created-since}` (default: the last 90 days) with FreshBooks clients, matching on email, and report who is missing on each side. Look at no more than `{max-records}` customers (default 100).

**Step 1: Read the BigCommerce customers**

Call `bigcommerce-get-customer` (bigcommerce server) with `date-created.from` set to `{created-since}` and `max-records` set to `{max-records}`. Keep `id`, `email`, `first-name`, `last-name` and `company` from each row. Skip customers with no email and count them separately.

**Step 2: Look each one up in FreshBooks**

For each customer email, call `freshbooks-get-client` (freshbooks server) with `email` set to that address. Lowercase and trim both sides before comparing. If more than one client matches, report the customer as ambiguous and list the client ids.

**Step 3: Find FreshBooks clients with no BigCommerce customer**

Call `freshbooks-get-client` with `signup-date.from` set to `{created-since}` and `max-records` set to `{max-records}`. For each client with an email, call `bigcommerce-get-customer` with `email` set to that address. Report clients that have no match.

**Step 4: Report**

Four short lists: matched pairs (BigCommerce id, FreshBooks client id, email), customers missing in FreshBooks, clients missing in BigCommerce, and customers skipped for having no email. End with the counts.

**Rules & Guidelines:**

* `bigcommerce-get-customer` is on the bigcommerce server. `freshbooks-get-client` is on the freshbooks server.
* This prompt is read-only. Never call `freshbooks-add-client`, `freshbooks-update-client`, `freshbooks-delete-client`, `bigcommerce-customer-add`, `bigcommerce-customer-update` or `bigcommerce-customer-delete`.
* If FreshBooks asks which company to use, pass the same `company` value on every freshbooks call.

**Validation:**

* If either server returns no rows, say so and stop instead of reporting everything as missing.
* If a tool call fails, report the error and which server it came from.

Who it's for

One answer, three teams that use it

Bookkeepers

Set up clients before you invoice

Customers missing in FreshBooks are listed, so invoices are not delayed by missing clients.

Which BigCommerce customers since 1 August are not FreshBooks clients?

Small business owners

Keep the store and the books aligned

Both directions are checked, so you see gaps on either side in one report.

Compare BigCommerce customers and FreshBooks clients from the last 60 days in both directions.

Accountants

Resolve shared email addresses

Several clients on one email are reported with their ids, so you can tidy them up.

Do any BigCommerce customers match more than one FreshBooks client by email?
