Create Elorus expenses from receipts in Box

Drop a receipt into Box and let Notis prepare the expense in Elorus, so purchases are easier to capture while the details are fresh.

Trigger

New File Added to Folder

Fires when a new file is added to a folder.

Action

Create Expense

Creates an expense from categorized line items.

Why this helps

Receipt details get buried in folders, leaving expense entry for later and making month-end bookkeeping harder.

  • Capture expense details soon after purchase.
  • Reduce manual entry from receipt documents.
  • Keep categorized expenses together in Elorus.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Elorus once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis to read new receipt files in the chosen Box folder, categorize their line items, and create an Elorus expense using available receipt details.
  • 4Pick the Box New File Added to Folder trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real receipt and review the created expense.

Questions about this workflow

What if a receipt is missing a date or total?

Tell Notis how to handle incomplete receipts in the instruction. It can report missing details for review instead of guessing.

Does this trigger on folders too?

No. This Box event watches for new files in the selected folder.
