Create vendor contacts from invoice details

Send an Affinda invoice result to Notis and create a Salesforce contact from the vendor details it identifies.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create contact

Creates a new contact in salesforce with the specified information.

Why this helps

Vendor contacts found on invoices often remain in documents, making it harder to follow up with the right person.

  • Capture vendor contacts from processed invoices
  • Reduce retyping contact details
  • Make vendor follow-up easier to track in Salesforce

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinda and Salesforce once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3Tell Notis in one instruction to create a Salesforce contact from vendor contact details in the incoming Affinda result.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger, then choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one invoice that contains a vendor contact and last name.

Questions about this workflow

Will the contact be linked to a vendor account?

The contact action can use account context when the incoming request provides a valid Salesforce account ID. Include that context when available.

What if an invoice has no named contact?

Tell Notis to skip contact creation or handle the missing name according to your process. Salesforce requires a contact last name.
