Why this helps

Quarterly reviews reuse stale market assumptions because the data refresh is easy to skip.

  • Refreshes recurring market context
  • Standardizes review inputs
  • Reduces preparation time

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Outlook and Census bureau in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation named Quarterly ACS market review.
  • 3Describe the markets, variables, summary format, and latest available 1-year estimates you want.
  • 4Choose a quarterly schedule trigger and select the report channel.
  • 5Test with one run across the full market list.

Questions about this workflow

Can it note when a market lacks 1-year coverage?

Yes. Tell Notis to flag unavailable estimates and identify the missing coverage.

Can I include a prior quarter report?

Yes, provide that baseline through the instruction or report context.
