Open a Monday approval card for charges that breach the envelope
When a Stripe charge pushes a department past its monthly envelope, it creates a Monday board item routed to that department's budget owner for an over-budget approval…

What it does
This workflow converts a budget breach into a tracked decision rather than a fire-and-forget alert. When a card charge takes a department over its monthly envelope, it opens an approval item on a Monday board, assigns the department's budget owner, and records the outcome so nothing falls through.
When to use it
Reach for this when over-budget spend needs a real sign-off trail, not just a Slack heads-up. It fits organizations that govern overage with explicit approvals and want an auditable record of who approved what and when.
How it works
- 1A Stripe webhook fires on each new card charge.
- 2The workflow looks up the department's current envelope and month-to-date spend from Snowflake.
- 3A logic step continues only when the charge crosses the envelope ceiling.
- 4It creates a Monday board item with the charge details, the overage amount, and the breached envelope, and assigns the department's budget owner from a Monday people column.
- 5A confirmation posts to Slack linking the approval card so the owner is nudged to act.
