Give invoice exceptions a shared place to get resolved
Turn an exception in a processed invoice into a focused discussion with the amount, issue, and next decision.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create discussion topic
Creates a discussion topic in a Canvas course.
Why this helps
Invoice issues often need a decision from several people, but the reason for the exception can get separated from the conversation.
- Keep exception context with the team discussion.
- Make unresolved invoice questions easier to find.
- Reduce retyping invoice facts into a new thread.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda and Canvas once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a Canvas discussion topic from invoice exception details sent to its webhook.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real invoice exception and confirm the topic includes the useful context.
Questions about this workflow
What starts this workflow?
A webhook request to Notis starts it. Your Affinda workflow needs to send the invoice exception data because Affinda trigger events are not listed here.
Can it identify exceptions by itself?
Notis can assess data supplied in the webhook, but your instruction must define the exception criteria if they are not already included in the data.
