Keep a dated record of extracted invoices
Set a recurring run to process the invoice documents you provide and leave a dated record in Drive for later review.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create a File from Text
Creates a new file in google drive from provided text content (up to 10mb), supporting various formats including automatic conversion to google workspace types.
Why this helps
Invoice details can get scattered across files, making it harder to review what has already been processed.
- Create a dated record for each scheduled processing run.
- Make extracted invoice details easier to find in Drive.
- Reduce manual copying of invoice information into review notes.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create a new automation and name it for invoice extraction logs.
- 3Tell Notis to process the invoice documents supplied for the run, extract key details, and create a dated log file in Google Drive.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real invoice and check the resulting log file.
Questions about this workflow
Where do the invoice documents come from?
The automation can process documents made available to it for the run. Specify the source or document references in your instruction; this workflow does not assume a Drive search trigger.
Will each run overwrite the previous log?
Ask Notis to create a dated file for each run so the results remain separate and easy to review.
