Keep transcription funds in view
A scheduled balance report makes it easier to notice funding needs before a recording is waiting to be transcribed.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Get Prepay Balance
Tool to retrieve the current prepay balance for the account. use when you need to check available funds before placing new transcription orders.
Why this helps
When nobody checks the prepay balance until an order is urgent, funding becomes a last-minute interruption.
- Put current account funds in a regular report.
- Make transcription budget planning easier to review.
- Use actual balance data rather than relying on memory.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect CastingWords once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve and report the current prepay balance on a recurring basis.
- 4Pick a recurring notis_cron schedule and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test once and confirm the balance report reaches the chosen channel.
Questions about this workflow
Does this top up the account when the balance is low?
No. The action retrieves the current balance only. It does not add funds.
Can the schedule guarantee there is enough for future orders?
No. It reports the balance at run time, and future prices or account activity may change what is available.
