Capture a failed payment that needs employee expense follow-up

When a payment failure reveals a company expense that still needs recording, have Notis add the expense in Breathe HR using details you provide.

Trigger

Payment Intent Failed Trigger

Triggered when a payment intent fails in Stripe

Action

Create Employee Expense

Tool to create an employee expense record in BreatheHR. Use when an employee needs to submit a new expense claim for reimbursement or record a company-paid expense.

Why this helps

A failed charge can disappear into billing alerts, leaving expense records incomplete and follow-up disconnected from the employee who needs to act.

  • Bring a relevant payment failure into the HR expense process.
  • Capture expense details while the payment issue is still visible.
  • Avoid logging ordinary customer payment failures as employee expenses.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Stripe and Breathe HR once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis how to recognize a company expense and provide the employee and expense details required to record it.
  • 4Pick the Stripe Payment Intent Failed trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real failed payment that is confirmed to represent an employee expense.

Questions about this workflow

Does a failed payment provide enough information to create an expense?

Not necessarily. The event indicates payment failure, but the employee, expense purpose, and other expense details must be available or supplied.

Will this record every failed customer payment as an expense?

No. Your instruction should only proceed when the payment is identified as a company expense tied to an employee.

What if the payment failure needs no employee expense?

Notis should take no expense action when the event does not meet the criteria in your instruction.
