Why this helps

Invoice history questions often arrive mid-task and make it easy to lose the thread while searching for records.

  • Search invoice history from a direct message request.
  • Use client and reference details already shared privately.
  • Return matches for quick review and response.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Elorus to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally for invoice searches from Slack DMs.
  • 3Write one plain-language prompt telling Notis to search Elorus invoices based on the request and clarify if the client is ambiguous.
  • 4Select the Slack direct message trigger and choose where run reports should be sent.
  • 5Test with a client who has a known invoice history.
