Review cashflow in Slack each week

Get a regular view of money in and out without remembering to open FreeAgent and rebuild the same summary each week.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Cashflow summary for a date range

Tool to retrieve cashflow summary for a given date range from FreeAgent. Use when you need to analyze cash inflow and outflow over a specific period. Provides net cashflow balance, incoming and outgoing totals, and monthly breakdowns.

Why this helps

A founder can miss a cashflow trend when financial review depends on finding time to open another tool.

  • Create a dependable rhythm for reviewing cash movement.
  • See incoming, outgoing, and net cashflow in one channel.
  • Reduce the context-switching cost of routine finance checks.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and FreeAgent to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create a scheduled automation in the portal, or tell Notis conversationally to send a recurring cashflow summary.
  • 3Use one instruction to ask Notis for a FreeAgent cashflow summary over the previous week and a concise Slack digest.
  • 4Choose a weekly Notis schedule and the Slack channel where run reports and the digest should appear.
  • 5Test once with a recent date range and confirm the summary is understandable.
