How to Connect Oracle ERP to MCP for AI Agents

Oracle ERP Meets AI Agents

Oracle ERP Cloud and E-Business Suite power financial operations for thousands of enterprises. Connecting Oracle to MCP with AnythingMCP enables AI agents to query financial data, manage procurement, and access HR information.

Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Deploy AnythingMCP

git clone https://github.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp.git
cd anythingmcp && docker compose up -d

Step 2: Create a REST Connector

Open the AnythingMCP dashboard at http://localhost:3000 and create a new REST connector. Set the base URL to your Oracle REST API endpoint (e.g., https://your-instance.fa.us2.oraclecloud.com/fscmRestApi/resources).

Step 3: Configure Authentication

In the connector settings, configure OAuth 2.0 or Basic auth with your Oracle service account credentials.

Step 4: Import and Customize Tools

Configure endpoints for general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, procurement, and HR in the dashboard. Customize tool names and descriptions.

Step 5: Test and Connect

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "oracle-erp": {
      "url": "http://localhost:4000/mcp"
    }
  }
}

AI Agent Use Cases

• "Show me all pending purchase orders over $10,000"
• "What's the current accounts receivable aging?"
• "List all invoices awaiting approval"
• "What's the GL balance for account 1010 this period?"
• "Create a purchase requisition for office supplies"

Best Practices

1. Use Oracle Integration Cloud for complex workflows
2. Security roles — Assign minimal required Oracle security roles to the service account
3. Rate limiting — Oracle Cloud APIs have rate limits; configure accordingly
4. Test in a sandbox — Always test in a non-production Oracle environment first
