Apply a clear contact check before rejecting an approval

If your policy calls for rejection when a supplied supplier contact fails a check, Notis can verify it with Abstract and apply that decision to the specified Coupa approval.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Reject Approval

Why this helps

Teams can spend time rechecking the same supplier details before applying a documented approval policy.

  • Apply a documented decision rule consistently.
  • Reduce repeated manual contact checks.
  • Tie the action to an explicit approval ID and run report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Abstract and Coupa once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
  • 3Describe the exact rejection condition, contact check, and Coupa approval ID to act on.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example and confirm the rejection condition before enabling routine use.

Questions about this workflow

Can this reject approvals automatically?

Yes, if your instruction states a clear rejection condition and the webhook provides the relevant approval ID and contact details.

What if the check is inconclusive?

State in your instruction that inconclusive results should be reported for human review rather than rejected.
