Expose the remaining node-quickbooks reports (A/R + A/P aging especially) via a generic get_report

Summary

node-quickbooks declares 29 report* methods. The server surfaces three — reportBalanceSheet, reportProfitAndLoss, reportTrialBalance — plus the General Ledger read inside account_period_summary. The other 25 are reachable on the client object today and exposed by nothing.

The gap that comes up most is A/R and A/P aging. There is currently no way to answer "what is outstanding, and how old is it" through this server. It can be approximated by querying every open Invo

query_account_transactions understates silently on Bank accounts — cross-check the GL total

Summary

query_account_transactions warns that a result may be incomplete only when the resolved account is Accounts Receivable or Other Current Liability. Bank accounts can be just as incomplete, and there the shortfall is silent — the summary line reads like a complete register.

Proposal: cross-check the drill-down total against the General Ledger figure account_period_summary already computes, and warn when they diverge.

receive_payment: apply a customer payment to an invoice (A/R counterpart to create_bill_payment)

Problem

v0.9.0 added create_bill_payment, which closes the A/P side — pay bills, clear Accounts Payable, let the bank feed match the debit. There is no A/R equivalent: no way to apply a customer payment to an open invoice (the QBO Payment entity, "Receive Payment" in the UI).

So an invoice can be created and read, and its A/R balance can be observed, but it cannot be settled. For anyone reconciling deposits against open invoices, the loop stops one step short — the deposit is visible i

create_transfer: write support for the Transfer entity

Problem

query_account_transactions reads Transfer correctly as of v0.9.0 — both sides, signed off ToAccountRef/FromAccountRef. But there is no way to create one.

That leaves a gap in the reconcile-then-fix loop. When a bank register shows an inter-account move or a credit-card paydown that was never booked, the read side now names the problem precisely and the write side can't close it. The available alternatives are all wrong in a way that matters later:

Curious about the preview-before-commit design - how do your users prove what the AI changed afterwards?

Hi - found this repo looking at MCP servers built for real production use, and the safe-by-default design stood out: draft/preview mode before commits, "no accidental journal entries." That's rare in this space, and it's clearly built by someone who's felt the failure mode.

Genuine question from someone working on audit evidence for AI-driven workflows the preview step protects the moment of change, but when a bookkeeper or CFO later needs to show WHAT the AI assistant changed and WHO approved

Sandbox mode builds "View in QuickBooks" links to the production host (app.qbo.intuit.com)

Version: quickbooks-mcp 0.7.1 (also observed on 0.5.2), running with QBO_SANDBOX=true.

Behavior: Tool results include deep links built by getQboUrl (dist/utils/urls.js), e.g. https://app.qbo.intuit.com/app/journal?txnId=146. The host is hardcoded; when the server is running against a sandbox company the links should point at https://app.sandbox.qbo.intuit.com.

Impact: transaction ids are small integers that exist in both realms. A user who is signed into their real co

Allow configuring report output directory via environment variable

Feature Request: Configurable Report Output Directory

Current Behavior

The server writes all report JSON files to a system temp directory created at startup:

const tmpDir = tmp.dirSync({ prefix: "qb-reports-", unsafeCleanup: true });
reportsDir = tmpDir.name;

This results in paths like /private/tmp/qb-reports--60579-c2M6iv0TnpMz/ on macOS, which are ephemeral and inaccessible to other processes (e.g., AI assistants running in sandboxed environments).

Class <> Department

Problem

QBO supports two separate tracking dimensions: Class (ClassRef) and Location (DepartmentRef). Many QBO customers — particularly small businesses using department or project tracking — use Class rather than Location.

The current tool schemas for bills, invoices, and purchases expose AccountRef and DepartmentRef on line items but do not include ClassRef. This means any transaction posted via the MCP server will be missing the Class field, creating incomplete GL entri
