Review Coupa approvals after balance changes

Catch workload shifts before they become missed approvals.

Trigger

Absence Balance Changed

Triggers when a worker's absence balance changes. This trigger monitors a specific worker's absence plan balance and detects any changes to the balance details including quantity available, effective date, position, or other related fields. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect meaningful changes.

Action

List Approvals

Tool to list approvals with optional pagination and filters. Use when you need to retrieve multiple approval records.

Why this helps

A changing absence balance can signal a worker may soon have less approval capacity.

  • Surfaces affected work
  • Supports early planning
  • Reduces dropped approvals

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 2Create an automation named Absence workload review.
  • 3Tell Notis to list pending Coupa approvals for the worker and summarize items needing coverage review.
  • 4Pick Workday Absence Balance Changed as the trigger.
  • 5Choose a report channel, then test with one balance change.

Questions about this workflow

Does this automatically reassign approvals?

No. It lists and summarizes approvals for a deliberate coverage decision.

Can it include completed approvals?

Tell Notis to focus on pending approvals unless a broader review is needed.
