Action
Bypass All Invoice Approvals
Tool to bypass all approvals for an invoice to enable rapid payment processing. Use when you need to skip the entire approval chain and get an invoice approved immediately. Note that the invoice must be in an approvable status (e.g., 'pending_approval'), not 'draft' status.
Why this helps
Urgent invoice exceptions stall while teams coordinate approval bypasses manually.
- Speed urgent payment handling
- Keep authorization explicit
- Report the resulting status
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Todoist and Coupa in the Notis portal once.
- 2Create an automation in Automations with a name and prompt.
- 3Tell Notis to bypass all approvals only for the Coupa invoice explicitly identified and authorized in each new Todoist task.
- 4Pick the Todoist New Task Created trigger.
- 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real urgent invoice task.
Questions about this workflow
Can this act on a draft invoice?
No. Coupa requires an approvable invoice status such as pending approval.
How should authorization be stated?
