What it does

This workflow closes the gap between a card swipe and a filed receipt. On a daily schedule it queries your Postgres expense ledger for any charge that is more than 48 hours old and still has no receipt on file. It groups those orphan charges by employee, then sends each person a single Slack DM listing the merchant, amount, and date of every charge they need to document — instead of a generic blast.

When to use it

Use it when receipt compliance is your biggest month-end bottleneck and you want gentle, targeted nudges before charges escalate to a policy violation. Ideal for teams already storing expense rows in Postgres.

How it works

  1. 1A daily schedule starts the run.
  2. 2A Postgres query returns charges aged past 48 hours with a null receipt.
  3. 3A grouping step buckets the missing-receipt charges per employee.
  4. 4Employees with zero outstanding items are filtered out.
  5. 5Each remaining employee gets one consolidated Slack DM with their list.
