Notis

Keep material categories clear across AnyDB and Ascora

Find category differences that make material planning and catalogue reviews harder to follow.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Get Inventory Categories

Lists inventory categories.

Why this helps

Inconsistent category names make it harder to compare planned materials with the system used for inventory.

  • Highlight likely category mismatches
  • Make material reporting easier to interpret
  • Collect classification questions in one report

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AnyDB and Ascora once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to compare the relevant AnyDB material categories with Ascora inventory categories and report likely differences.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with a small set of categories and review the matches.

Questions about this workflow

Will this change categories in either system?

No. It retrieves Ascora inventory categories and reports differences for a person to review.

What is a good matching rule?

Use shared names or identifiers when available, and have Notis mark uncertain comparisons clearly.
