When an absence is expected to last more than a day, keeping dates and status straight takes attention. Let Notis record clear sickness notices from Slack in Breathe HR.
Trigger

Action
Create Employee Sickness
Tool to create a sickness record for an employee in BreatheHR. Use when you need to log an employee's sick leave with details like type, dates, and status.
Why this helps
Longer absences often need more follow-through, while their details are spread across updates.
- Keep reported absence dates together in HR
- Reduce repeated searches through update threads
- Give longer absence follow-up a reliable record
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Breathe HR to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal, or tell Notis to record clearly reported extended sickness.
- 3Use one instruction to create a Breathe HR sickness record only for explicit sickness notices, carrying forward stated dates and flagging any missing information.
- 4Choose the Slack channel message trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real extended-absence update and verify the record details.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis decide what counts as extended leave?
State your team's threshold in the plain-language instruction, or have the workflow handle all clear sickness notices consistently.
Will it fill in dates that are not stated?
Ask it to flag missing dates rather than infer them.
