Creating orders with ChatGPT and Exact Online

Last updated: March 1, 2026

Creating orders in Exact Online takes time: selecting a customer, searching for items, entering quantities, setting delivery dates. With Ledger Botje, you do this in one sentence via the MCP protocol.

Creating sales orders

Tell your AI assistant: "Create a sales order for customer Bakkerij Jansen with 200 units of item BR-001 and 50 units of item BR-002."

Ledger Botje looks up the customer, finds the items, creates the order and adds the lines. You immediately receive a confirmation with the order number.

Creating purchase orders

The same works for purchasing: "Create a purchase order at supplier Van Dijk Supplies for 1000 units of item VP-500." The AI looks up the supplier, checks the item and creates the order.

Adding order lines

Already have an existing order? You can add lines: "Add 100 units of item C-300 to sales order SO-2026-0153."

Booking goods receipts

When a delivery arrives, you simply book the receipt: "Book a goods receipt for purchase order PO-2026-0089, 500 units of item VP-500." The stock is automatically updated in Exact Online.

Processing goods deliveries

When shipping orders: "Create a delivery for sales order SO-2026-0153." You can also include a track & trace code so your customer can track the shipment.

Important: Basic vs. Advanced

Creating orders, booking receipts and deliveries is only available with the Advanced plan. With Basic you can search orders and view details, but not create or modify them. View the plans and pricing for a full overview.
