Keep County Industry Statistics Current

Set the counties and industries you follow, then receive a recurring summary of the requested County Business Patterns data.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Get County Business Patterns

Retrieves county-level business establishment and employment statistics for a year.

Why this helps

Checking business activity across several counties can become a recurring manual chore that slips behind more urgent work.

  • Revisit specified counties and industries on a schedule.
  • Summarize establishment and employment statistics together.
  • Create a consistent review point for local business data.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Abstract and Census bureau once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name the county industry review.
  • 3Tell Notis which counties, industries, and year to use for County Business Patterns and how to summarize the returned statistics.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real county and industry before the recurring run.

Questions about this workflow

Will scheduled runs automatically detect growth?

A scheduled run can summarize the requested data. To describe growth, provide multiple years or a baseline for Notis to compare.

Can I follow more than one county?

Yes. List the geographies and industries in the automation instruction so the recurring report has a defined scope.
