Invoice clients for merged GitHub work
Close the loop between shipped code and client billing. Notis can prepare an Elorus invoice when a pull request is merged, using the client and pricing rules you specify.
Trigger
Pull Request Event
Triggers when a pull request is opened, closed, or updated with new commits.
Action
Create Invoice
Create an invoice or receipt, saved as a draft by default.
Why this helps
Billable development work can get lost between merged pull requests and the next invoicing session.
- Capture completed work while it is easy to review.
- Apply your stated client and pricing rules.
- Keep invoice preparation out of a separate manual tracking pass.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Elorus once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create one from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, say how to identify the client and calculate invoice lines from merged pull requests; provide the needed rates and billing rules.
- 4Pick the GitHub Pull Request Event trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real merged pull request and review the resulting invoice.
Questions about this workflow
Will every closed pull request create an invoice?
Tell Notis to proceed only when the event shows the pull request was merged. Closed but unmerged pull requests should be excluded.
How does Notis know the client and rate?
Include your client matching rules and rates in the automation instruction. GitHub pull request data alone does not establish billing terms.
