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

Why this helps
Jobs waiting for field staff can be overlooked when assignment gaps are not surfaced during regular reviews.
- Surface jobs that still need a staff assignment
- Keep the follow-up note with the work
- Support a repeatable staffing review
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ascora and Asana once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation by asking Notis to find jobs without an assigned field staff member and comment on the matching Asana task with the job reference and follow-up needed.
- 3Pick a recurring schedule as the trigger.
- 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
- 5Test with one real unassigned job and its task.
Questions about this workflow
What happens if there is no matching Asana task?
The instruction should tell Notis how to handle missing matches, such as reporting the job for manual review. This workflow uses the comment action on an existing task.
Does this assign field staff?
No. It highlights jobs that need assignment in Asana. Assigning staff in Ascora is outside the available Asana action events.
