Create Ashby openings from approved headcount requests

Check approved headcount requests on a schedule and create the corresponding Ashby opening when its supplied details are ready.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Create Opening

Create a job requisition and optionally associate jobs, locations, and teams.

Why this helps

Headcount approval can be recorded in AnyDB while the actual opening still needs to be created in Ashby by hand.

  • Move approved headcount into the hiring system
  • Cut repetitive opening setup
  • Surface incomplete requests before creating an opening

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AnyDB and Ashby once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to review approved AnyDB headcount requests available to it, create Ashby openings for complete records, and report missing or ambiguous details.
  • 4Choose the Notis cron trigger and set the recurring schedule in the automation.
  • 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real approved request.

Questions about this workflow

Does the workflow decide whether a request is approved?

The instruction needs to identify approved records using information available to the automation. If approval status is missing or unclear, the record should be reported for review.

Can an opening have a job attached?

Opening creation can use details supplied in the request. If the workflow needs to associate an existing job, that job must be clearly identified.
