Why this helps

Department spending plans are easy to lose between planning conversations and finance setup.

  • Turn a department request into budget setup.
  • Keep the requested amount attached to the task.
  • Receive a report showing the run outcome.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Calendar and Brex once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Describe that Notis should create a Brex budget from a request containing the department and amount.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and the report channel.
  • 5Test with one real department budget request.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create a department too?

No. This workflow uses the Create Budget action. Create the department separately in Brex if it does not already exist.

Can Notis fill in a missing amount?

No. Supply the amount in the request or have Notis report that it is missing.
