Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Create Recurring Schedule

Sets up recurring invoice generation for a client at regular intervals.

Why this helps

Recurring client work can create repeated billing admin and make it easy to miss a cycle.

  • Set up recurring invoice generation for an approved retainer.
  • Use the supplied client and schedule terms.
  • Avoid creating a schedule when required terms are missing.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveTrail and Clientary once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a recurring schedule only for an approved retainer with client ID, next date, interval, currency code and due period supplied.
  • 4Pick the recurring schedule trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one approved retainer and review the schedule details.
