Notis

Include the right business context in a handoff

Before passing a finance-related task along, ask Notis for the connected FreshBooks businesses in the same Telegram conversation.

Trigger

New Message Received

Action

Why this helps

Handoffs slow down when the next person has to stop and ask which account the task concerns.

  • Make business-account context easy to include in a handoff.
  • Reduce clarifying messages about which account is involved.
  • Keep the lookup close to the task discussion.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Telegram and FreshBooks to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal, or ask Notis in Telegram to retrieve business names when preparing an account-related handoff.
  • 3Use one plain-language instruction to return a concise list suitable for the handoff context.
  • 4Select Telegram New Message Received as the trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with a real handoff request in a Telegram chat the bot can receive.

Questions about this workflow

Can it select the correct business automatically?

It can provide the business list; the handoff instruction should identify the intended account when one is known.

Does it send a message to the person receiving the handoff?

It reports through the channel you select. You can use that result as context for your handoff.
