Action

Identify Merchant from Transaction

Why this helps

Raw transaction text is often hard to recognize, creating extra research during document review.

  • Process unstructured transaction text through a merchant identification action.
  • Gather brand details for review in one run.
  • Use a recurring schedule for document batches.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinda and Brandfetch once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation that describes which documents and results to review.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to find raw transaction descriptions in available documents and identify the merchants through Brandfetch.
  • 4Set a recurring schedule and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real document and confirm the merchant result.

Questions about this workflow

How is this different from looking up a transaction label?

Identify Merchant from Transaction is described for raw, unstructured payment text and returns brand details, including name, logo, domain, and industry information.

Does Affinda automatically trigger the recurring run?

No. The Notis cron schedule starts the automation, which then works with the documents specified in its instruction.

Can it identify every transaction description?

Results depend on the text and Brandfetch matching. Have Notis report unclear or unmatched descriptions for review.
