Keep sickness records current from email

When a follow-up email clearly identifies an existing sickness record and what changed, Notis can update it in Breathe HR.

Trigger

New Email Received

Trigger for new emails in an AgentMail inbox

Action

Update Sickness

Tool to update an existing sickness record in BreatheHR. Use when you need to modify sickness details such as status, dates, review notes, or other sickness attributes.

Why this helps

Return dates and follow-up details arrive in email, leaving HR records stale until someone makes the update.

  • Keep existing sickness records current.
  • Reduce manual transfer of follow-up details.
  • Avoid guessing which record an email refers to.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agent mail and Breathe HR once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation by naming it and describing the outcome.
  • 3Tell Notis to update a sickness record only when the message identifies the record and states the new detail, status, or review note.
  • 4Pick New Email Received as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real example and review the result.

Questions about this workflow

Can this create a new sickness record?

No. This workflow updates an existing record. Use a separate creation workflow for new sickness notifications.

What if a message gives a return date but no record reference?

Have Notis report the missing reference for follow-up instead of selecting a record by guesswork.
