Record expense intake rows in Clientary

Let the expense details collected in your sheet flow into Clientary without another round of retyping.

Trigger

New Rows in Google Sheet

Simple polling trigger that monitors Google Sheets for new rows. Detects when new rows are added and returns the complete row data. Perfect for triggering any workflow based on new sheet entries.

Action

Create Expense

Tool to create a new expense record in Clientary to track expenditures within your account. Use when you need to record expenses, optionally assigning them to specific clients or projects. Requires an amount field.

Why this helps

Expenses collected outside the accounting workflow are easy to overlook when it is time to review spending.

  • Move expense entries into Clientary as they arrive.
  • Keep the source sheet as an easy intake point.
  • Surface incomplete expense details in run reports.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Sheets and Clientary once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis: Create a Clientary expense for each new expense row using its amount and available description, date, client, or project details; report missing amounts.
  • 4Pick New Rows in Google Sheet as the trigger and select a report channel.
  • 5Test with one real expense row.

Questions about this workflow

What is required to create an expense?

The Clientary create expense action requires an amount. Include it in each row or have Notis report rows that lack one.

Can expenses be linked to a client or project?

The action can optionally assign an expense to a client or project when those details are available and clearly identified.

Will it calculate amounts from other rows?

This workflow uses the amount available in each new row. If the amount is absent, tell Notis how to report the row rather than relying on an unprovided value.
