Create a Coupa account from a sent setup request
When a sent message contains a complete general ledger account request, have Notis create the account in Coupa.
Trigger
Email Sent
Triggers when a Gmail message is sent by the authenticated user. It polls the 'SENT' label and emits metadata including sender, recipients, subject, timestamp, and thread ID.
Action
Create Account
Tool to create a Coupa account. Use when you need to provision a new general ledger account with a specific chart-of-accounts type and code segments.
Why this helps
Account setup details can be scattered across email, adding extra steps before a new account is ready for use.
- Cut down on rekeying account setup instructions.
- Use the chart of accounts details already included in the request.
- Reduce delays caused by manual handoffs for account provisioning.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Gmail and Coupa once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to create a Coupa account from sent setup requests only when the required account type and code segments are present.
- 4Choose Email Sent as the trigger and set a destination for run reports.
- 5Test with one real sent request that includes the account type and required code segments.
Questions about this workflow
What details must the request include?
Include the intended account type and required code segments, along with any other account details needed by your Coupa configuration.
Can this create an account from an incomplete request?
A required type or code segment that is missing cannot be inferred from the email. Provide the details in the request before relying on account creation.
