Agent to Compare Placement Records and Payroll Amounts Before Payment

An agent built with Claude Code compares company placement data with the payroll amounts scheduled for payment. For each discrepancy, it tells the user what needs to be corrected.

Claude Code

How it works

  1. The author set up the agent to load the company's placement data.
  2. They configured it to retrieve the scheduled payment amounts from the payroll provider Thera, compare each record, and flag any mismatches.

Results

On the first run, 71 out of 103 records matched. For the rest, the agent provided specific correction instructions, such as 'reduce by 312.50'.

Notes

The article does not mention time savings or changes in error rates after implementation.

Example prompt · Claude Code

Create a verification tool to compare employee placement records and scheduled payment amounts, identifying any discrepancies.

Input: placement data [file], scheduled payment details [file], a linking identifier [column], and the payment criteria to use for calculations [document]. First, check column names, periods, currencies, duplicate rows, and missing identifiers, and ask for clarification if the matching criteria are unclear.

Calculate the expected payment amount for each record using only the provided payment criteria, and compare it to the scheduled amount. The results should include the identifier, applied criteria, expected amount, scheduled amount, the difference, and the reason for any discrepancy. Do not automatically confirm records that are unmatched, have missing calculation bases, or require further review—flag these separately.

Accept and apply user input for decimal handling and tolerance, and ensure all calculation source rows are traceable. Connect to the payroll system for lookup and report generation only; do not modify actual amounts or initiate transfers.

Deliverables: executable code, a comparison report, and a list of items requiring review. Test with samples for exact matches, amount differences, duplicate identifiers, missing data, and period mismatches, and double-check the totals.
