Turn a billing-ready Linear comment into an invoice draft
A comment can be the final nudge that completed work is ready to bill. Notis can prepare the draft while that context is clear.
Trigger
Comment Received Trigger
Triggered when a comment is received.
Action
Create Invoice
Tool to create an invoice in FreeAgent. Use when you need to generate a new invoice for a contact. The invoice will be created in 'Draft' status and can be modified or sent later.
Why this helps
Invoice follow-up is often postponed after delivery, especially when the approval is buried in an issue conversation.
- Create an invoice draft near the approval moment.
- Keep completed work from waiting unnoticed in the backlog.
- Leave a review step before the invoice is sent.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and FreeAgent to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to draft invoices from billing-ready comments.
- 3Describe in one instruction what comment or project context means work is approved for invoicing.
- 4Select the Linear Comment Received trigger, choose a run-report channel, and test with one real billing-ready comment.
