Make billing-ready Linear work easier to invoice
When delivery is marked ready for billing, Notis can prepare a FreeAgent invoice draft while the relevant work remains easy to find.
Trigger
Public Team Issue Properties Updated
Fires when properties on a *public-team* Linear issue change (status, assignee, priority, labels, etc.). For private teams (lock icon in Linear's sidebar) use `LINEAR_PRIVATE_TEAM_ISSUE_PROPERTIES_UPDATED`.
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
Completed work can sit in a backlog after delivery because invoice preparation depends on a separate reminder.
- Create a reviewable invoice draft at the billing checkpoint.
- Reduce time between delivery completion and invoice preparation.
- Keep the draft tied to its Linear work context.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and FreeAgent to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation or tell Notis to prepare invoice drafts from billing-ready public-team issues.
- 3Use one instruction to define the billing-ready signal and how to identify the client and work context.
- 4Pick the Public Team Issue Properties Updated trigger, choose a channel for run reports, and test with one qualifying issue.
