TaskRobin is a powerful integration that automates email forwarding from Gmail (and other providers) directly to your Notion workspace. TaskRobin is designed to revolutionize the way you manage and store your email invoices, improving your workflow and saving valuable time.

Why Automate Your Workflow with TaskRobin?

TaskRobin is more than just an email forwarder. It’s a comprehensive solution that automates the capture of essential email details such as subject lines, attachments, and timestamps, automatically saving them as properties in your Notion workspace.

In addition, there are smart workflow automations that makes organizing and categorizing emails in Notion a breeze.

  • Automated Tagging: Automatically categorize invoices with relevant hashtags for better organization.
  • Centralized Invoice Management: Consolidate all email communication and invoices in one Notion workspace for easy retrieval.

TaskRobin: Your Centralized Information Hub

With TaskRobin, you’ll no longer have to search through your email inbox for that one elusive invoice. Instead, all email details—including sender, subject, and attachments—are saved as structured data in Notion. This means that invoices, receipts, and related communications can be found in one organized space, making tracking and reporting much simpler.

Bonus Tip: TaskRobin also offers a feature that links your emails to specific contacts in Notion, so you can easily track all communication history with clients or vendors.

Setting up TaskRobin for Email Invoice Management

Getting started with TaskRobin is simple:

  1. Sign Up: Create a TaskRobin account and connect it to your Notion database. This allows you to manually forward emails to Notion via TaskRobin.
  2. Configure Email Rules for Auto Forward: Set up your preferences for email forwarding and tagging of invoice emails.
  3. Sit Back and Relax: TaskRobin will automatically save your email invoices to Notion, reducing your workload and ensuring you never lose an invoice again.

Automate Email Forwarding for Invoices

By setting up email forwarding rules in Gmail, you can ensure that important email invoices are automatically sent to TaskRobin for processing. Here’s a quick guide to setting up email forwarding for Gmail:

Step-by-Step: Set Up Gmail to Auto Forward Invoices to TaskRobin

  1. Log into Gmail: Use your Gmail account and navigate to Settings. If you are not using Gmail, that is perfectly fine. TaskRobin works with every email provider.
  2. Add TaskRobin as a Forwarding Address: First, add your TaskRobin inbox email as a forwarding address in Gmail. TaskRobin will verify the address and automatically reply with the verifiation code.
  3. Create a New Filter: Define a filter that captures all emails containing invoices by adding specific keywords like “invoice” or “billing” to the filter criteria.
  4. Choose to Forward: Select “Forward it to” and choose your TaskRobin inbox.
  5. Save and Test: Test by sending an email invoice to confirm it gets forwarded and processed by TaskRobin.

By automating this process, you eliminate manual forwarding, minimizing errors and freeing up more time for productive tasks.

Tagging and Categorizing Invoices

TaskRobin takes organization to the next level with its automatic tagging feature. By using hashtags (e.g., #paid, #pending), you can tag emails as they are forwarded, and TaskRobin will create corresponding tags in Notion. This makes it easy to sort and filter your invoices for quick access.

For example, adding “#InvoiceAugust2024” will categorize the email under “InvoiceAugust2024” in your Notion workspace, making invoice retrieval a breeze.

This is particularly useful for keeping your workspace organized, especially when managing multiple clients or projects.

Effortless Contact Management

Managing contacts is crucial for professionals handling large volumes of client interactions. With TaskRobin, each invoice is automatically associated with its respective sender, creating or updating a Contacts table in Notion. This allows you to maintain a historical record of all communications with specific contacts—an invaluable resource for invoicing and audit purposes.

Conclusion: Simplify Your Invoice Management with TaskRobin

In the world of business, time equals money. TaskRobin provides an effective way to automate your email invoice management, freeing up time and eliminating manual data entry. With automated tagging, seamless email integration, and comprehensive contact management, TaskRobin transforms the way you handle invoices in Notion.
