Notis

Reject an invalid expense approval

Close invalid requests with a reason everyone can understand.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Reject Approval

Tool to reject an approval. Use when you need to programmatically reject a pending approval by ID.

Why this helps

Invalid expenses linger when the person who spotted the issue is not the approver.

  • Resolve invalid requests faster
  • Leave a consistent decision trail
  • Reduce back and forth

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect 7shifts and Coupa in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation named Invalid expense rejection.
  • 3Tell Notis to match the supplied 7shifts exception to a pending Coupa approval and reject it with the provided rationale.
  • 4Choose a notis_webhook trigger.
  • 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real exception.

Questions about this workflow

Will Notis invent a rejection reason?

Instruct it to use the reason in the webhook or report that the reason is missing.

Can rejected approvals be restored?

Restoration depends on Coupa policy and must be handled in Coupa.
