Invoice work after a Drive comment approval
Keep review and billing connected. When a new comment clearly approves billing, Notis can create an invoice from the document if its client and line item details are complete.
Trigger
Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)
Triggers when a comment is added to a document, spreadsheet, or presentation.
Action
Create Invoice
Create an invoice or receipt, saved as a draft by default.
Why this helps
A billing approval can be easy to miss when it is buried in a document review thread.
- Use a clear review signal to start billing.
- Avoid creating invoices from comments that do not approve billing.
- Keep invoice creation tied to the reviewed source document.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Elorus once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create an invoice only when a new comment explicitly approves billing and the document has complete invoice details.
- 4Pick the Google Drive Comment Added trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real approval comment and its document.
Questions about this workflow
Does any new comment count as approval?
No. State the exact approval language or decision criteria in your instruction, and ask Notis to skip other comments.
What if the document lacks invoice details?
Ask Notis to report what is missing rather than create an incomplete invoice.
