Are you struggling with managing billing statuses for multiple projects, making it difficult to focus on important tasks? The process of manually creating invoices and sending them via email is time-consuming and carries the risk of errors.

The solution to these challenges is the integration of Notion and Misoca using Yoom.
With this system, you can automate everything from task management to invoice creation and sending, significantly reducing your workload.

Additionally, centralized data management helps organize your workflow and prevents billing oversights.
By using Yoom, which can be intuitively set up without programming knowledge, you can achieve smooth business operations and create an environment where you can focus on important work.

Recommended for

  • Those looking for a system to manage billing statuses for multiple projects at a glance
  • Those who want to reduce the double work of creating invoices and sending emails to lighten their workload
  • Those who want to centralize customer information and billing history to quickly check past billing details
  • Those who want to integrate Notion and Misoca to reduce manual work and prevent billing oversights

Benefits of Integrating Notion and Misoca and Specific Use Cases

Benefit 1: Streamlining Operations and Preventing Errors

The integration of Notion and Misoca contributes to streamlining business processes. In particular, eliminating the need for duplicate data entry can shorten work time and reduce input errors.

For example, if you use Notion for project management, you can build a system where invoices linked to completed tasks are automatically created in Misoca while managing task progress.
This process is expected to reduce manual work related to invoice creation, thereby lightening the workload.
Moreover, the smooth connection from task completion to invoice creation helps organize the overall workflow, leading to increased efficiency. This integration makes it easier for busy teams and individual entrepreneurs to operate with reduced burdens.

Benefit 2: Improving Work Speed Through Data Updates

By integrating Notion and Misoca, consistent data management ensures smooth business processing.

For instance, if you build a flow where the accounting department creates invoices in Misoca based on client information entered by the sales department in Notion, you can reduce the effort of sharing information between both parties. This can potentially speed up responses to clients.
Furthermore, accurately reflecting updated information allows for error-free processing. Utilizing this system can enhance efficiency while enabling timely responses.

Especially in operations involving multiple departments, smooth information sharing is considered to aid in achieving seamless operations.

Benefit 3: Promoting Centralized Management and Automation

Leveraging the integration of Notion and Misoca allows for centralized management of business processes while advancing automation.

For example, managing multiple projects in Notion and having Misoca automatically create invoices based on progress can reduce workload.
Additionally, by adding a setting to send invoices created in Misoca via Gmail, you can create an environment for smoothly progressing billing operations.

This integration is expected to enhance operational efficiency while increasing transparency, especially for freelancers and small teams. Centralized management is also anticipated to simplify complex business processes, making them easier to manage. By incorporating this integration system, more stable business operations are considered achievable.

How to Create a Flow to Send Emails by Integrating Notion and Misoca

Let's set up the integration flow of Notion and Misoca using Yoom.
The flow this time is "When the status is updated in Notion, create an invoice in Misoca and send it via Gmail."

  • Integrate Notion, Misoca, and Gmail with My Apps
  • Copy the Template
  • Detailed Settings for Notion and Misoca
  • Turn on the Trigger to Start the Flow

Proceed with the setup following the general process outlined above.
Note that this flow uses branching settings.

<span class="mark-yellow">Branching is a feature (operation) available in plans above the Mini Plan.</span> Please note that if you are on the Free Plan, the operations of the flow bot you set up will result in an error.
Paid plans offer a 2-week free trial. During the free trial, you can use apps and AI features (operations) that are subject to restrictions.

[What is Yoom]

Step 1: Integrate Notion, Misoca, and Gmail with My Apps

First, let's integrate the apps you will use with Yoom. After logging into Yoom, click "+ New Connection" from "My Apps" in the left menu.

When the "New App Connection" window appears, search for each app and proceed with the input according to the displayed content. Before integrating Notion with My Apps, make sure to create the database that will be used in this flow.

If you create the database later, you will need to reconnect the app. For other app integrations, you only need the login information, so once you've entered it, make sure it appears in the My Apps list.

If Gmail is also displayed similarly, the integration with My Apps is complete.
Click "Try it" from the banner below to copy the template and proceed with the setup!

Step 2: Set Up App Trigger in Notion

The initial setting is "When a page in a specific database is created or updated".
On the first page, the account information of Notion, which is already linked with My App, is reflected.

The title can be changed, so let's make it easy to understand by including specific database names, etc. After checking the account information, click "Next". On the next page, set the trigger activation interval and the Notion database settings.

The trigger activation interval varies depending on the Yoom plan.
Set it according to your business needs, then obtain and enter the Notion database ID from the URL. Once the above two items are entered, click "Test" to obtain the output.

If the details are reflected next to the output items as shown in the image above, it is successful.
Once confirmed, click "Save" to complete the app trigger setup.

Step 3: Set Up Record Retrieval

Next is the setup for "Retrieve Record (ID Search)".
On the first page, as before, account information and optional title modification are performed.

Scroll down to display the input field for the Notion database ID. Select the appropriate one from the candidates. Click "Next" to confirm the connection.

__wf_reserved_inherit

Next, let's set the conditions for retrieving Notion information.

This setting retrieves records where the Notion record ID equals the "Object ID" output value obtained in the app trigger setup. Click "Test", and if successful, the output can be obtained.

Once confirmed, click "Save".
This completes the setup for record retrieval.

Step 4: Set Up Branching

Next, set up branching in "Command Operation".

The red frame in the image above is related to the branching setup.

<span class="mark-yellow">The output of "Status" obtained in the "Retrieve Record" flow that is "Complete"</span> proceeds to the next setting in the branch.

Once all items are set, click "Save" to complete the branching setup.
Only those that meet the branching conditions will proceed from here.

Step 5: Obtain Destination ID

The next setup is "Obtain Destination ID Linked to a Specific Client".
The first page is the same as Notion.

After modifying the account information and title as desired, proceed to the next step.

Next, enter the output to obtain the destination ID and click "Test".
If the test is successful, the output of the destination list can be obtained.

Once confirmed, click "Save" to complete the destination ID retrieval setup.

Step 6: Set Up Invoice Creation

Next is the setup for "Create Invoice".
The first page involves the usual title modification and account information confirmation, so once set, proceed to the next step. On the next page, perform the detailed settings for the invoice content.

Reflect the obtained output in each item. Select the destination ID from the "Obtain Destination ID Linked to a Specific Client" item, and choose appropriate items from the "Retrieve Record" item for other fields.

Once the invoice details are entered, click "Test".

If the output is correctly obtained, the value is reflected next to the items in the image above.
Once confirmed, click "Save" to complete the invoice creation setup.

Step 7: Set Up Invoice PDF Retrieval

Next is "Retrieve Invoice PDF".
After modifying the title and confirming the account information on the first page, proceed to the next step.

On the next page, select the {{Invoice ID}} obtained in the "Create Invoice" flow and click "Test". If the test is successful and the "Invoice File" output is obtained, the invoice PDF retrieval setup is complete.

Step 8: Set Up Gmail Sending

The final setup is "Send Email". On the first page, there are detailed settings for the email to be sent below the title and account information.

Use the outputs obtained so far to set the recipient and message content.
The red frame in the image above is where the output values are reflected. The text outside the red frame is sent as a template message.

After entering the necessary items, click "Next" and check the screen where the output is reflected to ensure there are no errors in the text, then click "Test". If an email with the output values reflected is received at the specified email address, it is successful.
Once the output is confirmed, click "Save".

This completes all the settings.
Finally, don't forget to turn on the trigger to activate the flow.

The template set up this time is as follows.
It is clear that the invoice creation flow is streamlined.
