Action

Why this helps

Document workflow status is spread across tasks, making it hard to see what needs attention without a manual review.

  • Bring relevant work into one short summary.
  • Make waiting items and next steps easier to spot.
  • Save time spent opening tasks one by one.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveMerge and Asana once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose a name and report channel.
  • 3Tell Notis to summarize relevant document workflow tasks and post the result as a comment on the designated Asana task.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real set of document workflow tasks.
