Get Tax Rates Before Expense Categorization

Expense tracking without VAT context leads to tax errors and rework. Notis fetches rates automatically so categorization is correct from the start.

Get VAT Rates

This tool retrieves a list of all available vat rates from altoviz. it's essential for creating and managing invoices and quotes where vat calculations are required. it supports retrieving vat rates, validating them for different regions, and ensuring correct tax calculations in financial documents.

Why this helps

Manually looking up VAT rates during expense tracking causes tax categorization errors, rework, and audit risk.

  • VAT rates ready before expense categorization
  • Fewer tax categorization errors
  • Audit-ready expense tracking
  • Compliance built into workflow

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Altoviz to Notis via portal (one-time setup)
  • 2Tell Notis 'Fetch VAT rates from Altoviz when a Linear issue gets the Expense tag' or build via Automations > New
  • 3Notis names the automation and asks which channel to report runs in
  • 4Select Issue Updated trigger (to watch for tag changes) and confirm
  • 5Test by tagging a Linear issue with 'Expense' and verify VAT rates appear in your report

Questions about this workflow

Does this categorize the expense automatically?

No, it loads the rates. Categorization still happens in your system, but now you have the right rates at hand.

Can I get different VAT rates based on expense type?

Yes. Tell Notis to filter rates by expense category (e.g., 'office VAT rates for office expenses, travel VAT for travel').

What if an expense is international and needs multiple VAT rates?

Tell Notis which regions apply to your expenses. It fetches rates for all of them so your team sees the full picture.
