Add expense email evidence to Coupa reports

Receipts and explanations should travel with the expense report. Notis turns incoming expense emails into useful Coupa notes.

Trigger

New Outlook Message

Triggered when a new message is received in the Outlook mailbox.

Action

Add Comment to Expense Report

Tool to add a comment to an expense report. Use when you need to add notes or feedback to an existing expense report.

Why this helps

Expense evidence is scattered across inboxes, making reviews slower and easier to miss.

  • Centralizes supporting evidence
  • Speeds expense review
  • Reduces lost receipt follow-ups

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Outlook and Coupa in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation named Expense email evidence.
  • 3Tell Notis to identify the related expense report, summarize the email, and add a factual comment with any receipt details or open questions.
  • 4Pick New Outlook Message as the trigger and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one real receipt or expense clarification email.

Questions about this workflow

Will Notis invent missing receipt details?

No. Ask it to state when information is missing and preserve only details present in the message.

Can it flag emails that need human review?

Yes. Instruct Notis to add a review note when it cannot confidently identify the expense report.
