Compare invoice vendors with public pricing
Use a recurring review to find vendor invoices worth checking against current public prices.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Run Actor Sync
Runs an Actor and returns its output when ready.
Why this helps
Invoice details and current vendor pricing sit in separate places, making review easy to postpone.
- Turn invoice details into research starting points.
- Review vendor pricing on a consistent schedule.
- Keep the result in an Apify run for later inspection.
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 the invoices you provide with Affinda and run an Apify Actor to research public prices for selected vendors.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real invoice and review the collected pricing evidence.
Questions about this workflow
Can this verify contract pricing?
No. An Apify Actor can collect public information. Contract terms or negotiated pricing must be provided separately.
What starts the workflow?
The recurring Notis schedule starts it. Affinda is used in the automation prompt to parse invoice details.
