Route sent approval requests to Coupa invoice approvers
Turn a sent request into a documented Coupa approval handoff.
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
Add Approver To Invoice
Tool to manually add an approver to an invoice. Use when you need to add a user or user group to the approval chain of an invoice at a specific position.
Why this helps
Approval requests are sent by email but the Coupa invoice chain is not updated.
- Keep approval chains current
- Reduce manual Coupa edits
- Create a visible handoff
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Super and Coupa in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation named Sent approval request to invoice approver.
- 3Tell Notis to identify the invoice and requested reviewer in each sent email, then add that approver in Coupa.
- 4Pick Email Sent and choose a report channel.
- 5Test with one approval request email.
Questions about this workflow
What if the email names more than one reviewer?
Tell Notis to add each clearly identified reviewer or report ambiguous requests for review.
Can it add a user group?
Yes, when the message clearly names a Coupa user group.
