What it does
When invoices get stuck and approvals pile up, this prompt shows who holds the most waiting value and for how long and drafts a short message per approver, so you know who to chase first or where a backup approver would help.
Use it weekly and before a payment run.

How MCP works
MCP is an open standard that lets your LLM look things up in other tools. The Moss MCP gives it read access to your Moss data, so it answers from your real numbers.
Link Moss to your LLM once
You sign in with your Moss account. After that, your LLM can reach Moss whenever you ask.
Use a prompt in plain English
Your LLM asks the Moss MCP for what it needs, such as expenses, budgets, bank transactions or receipt files.
An answer from your own data
Lists, summaries and drafts based on what is in Moss. Nothing in Moss is changed.
What MCP can see
You stay in control. The Moss MCP only reads data. It can't change or pay anything.
| It can | It can't |
|---|---|
| Read card transactions and their receipt status | Change, approve or delete anything |
| Read cardholders, teams and entities | Make payments or move money |
FAQ
Yes, for the data. The connector reads your own Moss data, so you need a Moss account.
