Notis

Gather public supplier signals for review

Use invoice records to prepare focused public research on suppliers that need a closer look.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Run Task Sync (POST)

Run an Actor task with input overrides and return its output; it continues server-side if the request times out.

Why this helps

Supplier follow-up gets delayed when invoice review and public research are disconnected.

  • Find supplier names in invoice documents.
  • Provide task-specific input for a targeted run.
  • Prepare public results for a human review.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinda and Apify once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to parse supplier details from the invoice with Affinda and use the relevant details as input for an Apify task that collects public information.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one invoice and check that the task input and results match the intended scope.

Questions about this workflow

Does this score supplier risk?

No. The workflow can gather public information, but any risk assessment needs defined criteria and human review.

Why use an input override?

It lets a task run with custom input for that run, assuming the selected task accepts the fields provided.
