Prepare Jira handoffs during your regular PTO review
Make planned time away easier to cover by turning a scheduled PTO review into a focused batch of Jira handoff issues.
Trigger

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Bulk Create Issues
Creates multiple jira issues (up to 50 per call) with full feature support including markdown, assignee resolution, and priority handling.
Why this helps
Teams often notice work coverage needs only when an absence is close or already underway.
- Create related handoff tasks together during a regular review.
- Make upcoming coverage work visible before an absence begins.
- Reduce repeated manual issue entry for several handoffs.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect BambooHR and Jira once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis in one instruction to review upcoming PTO context and create Jira issues for handoffs explicitly identified in the supplied data.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real PTO example and check the batch for accurate, non-duplicate tasks.
Questions about this workflow
Will this create coverage tasks for every PTO record?
The instruction should create tasks only when the available context identifies work that needs a handoff. PTO data alone may not say which project work needs coverage.
Can I choose how often it runs?
Yes. Pick a recurring schedule in the Notis automation setup that matches your team's review rhythm.
