Keep Boxhero inventory checks on the calendar
Use a recurring Notis run to create Slack reminders for the stock checks your team needs to remember.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create a reminder
Creates a slack reminder with specified text and time; time accepts unix timestamps, seconds from now, or natural language (e.g., 'in 15 minutes', 'every thursday at 2pm').
Why this helps
Time-sensitive stock reviews are easy to miss when follow-up lives in someone's head.
- Turn a recurring review into a Slack reminder.
- Use expiry dates or review rules you provide.
- Make inventory follow-up visible to the team.

- 1Connect Boxhero and Slack once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or by telling Notis what you want.
- 3Describe which inventory checks need reminders and how far ahead to create them.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real item and verify the reminder timing.
