Notis

Spot absence overlaps that need a second look

Surface possible scheduling conflicts so someone can review coverage before leave begins.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Create task in asana with specific details

Creates a new asana task; requires 'workspace', 'parent', or 'projects' for association, and 'followers', 'projects', 'tags' are set only at creation.

Why this helps

Overlapping leave can create coverage gaps that are hard to spot across separate employee records.

  • Surface possible overlaps before they become urgent.
  • Create a clear human review step.
  • Make coverage planning easier to coordinate.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Breathe HR and Asana once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis which team membership and date range to check for overlapping absences and to create an Asana task for potential conflicts.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example and review whether the overlap criteria fit your team.

Questions about this workflow

Can it determine team coverage on its own?

Only if the relevant team information is available from Breathe HR or supplied in your instruction. Missing team membership must be supplied or treated as unknown.

Does it change anyone's leave?

No. It flags possible overlaps for a person to review.
