Notis

Create Ascora quotations from Box quote requests

Keep quote requests attached to the files your team already uses, and let Notis carry the request into Ascora.

Trigger

New File Comment Added

Triggers when a new comment is added to a file in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box file and fires when new comments are detected.

Action

Create Quotation

Tool to create a new quotation. use when submitting a customer quote request via the ascora api.

Why this helps

Quote details can be buried in file comments, then missed while switching between document storage and job management.

  • Capture quote requests where the conversation starts.
  • Use the Box file and comment context to inform the quotation.
  • Surface missing details in the run report for follow-up.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Ascora once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to review new Box file comments for quote requests and create an Ascora quotation from the available details, reporting anything missing.
  • 4Pick the Box New File Comment Added trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real quote request and review the run report.

Questions about this workflow

Will every new file comment create a quotation?

Tell Notis in the automation instruction to create a quotation only when the comment and file context clearly contain a quote request. Review the test run before relying on it.

What if a request does not include enough information?

Notis can report the missing details so you can follow up. The available Ascora action creates a quotation; it does not provide a separate approval step.
