Why this helps
Completed development work is easy to celebrate and easy to forget when it is time to reconcile project activity.
- Create a natural billing review moment
- Reduce end-of-task follow-up effort
- Keep completed GitHub work connected to FreshBooks projects
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and FreshBooks to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to set it up.
- 3Use this instruction: “When a GitHub pull request closes, list my FreshBooks projects and identify the likely project for this work.”
- 4Choose the pull request event trigger, select a reporting channel, and test with one closed pull request.
Questions about this workflow
Does closing a PR always mean the work is billable?
No. The automation creates a review cue; you decide whether the work belongs to a FreshBooks project.
Can it cover merged and closed PRs?
Yes. Tell Notis how to distinguish merged from merely closed pull requests in its report.
