Mailhook and NetSuite: Timesheet Email to Billing Record Template
When a contractor emails a timesheet spreadsheet, Spojit reads the hours and creates a matching billing record in NetSuite so nothing has to be keyed by hand.
What It Builds
A Mailhook trigger gives the workflow its own inbound email address. When a timesheet lands, an Attachment node pulls the spreadsheet bytes, a Connector node reads the billable hours, project, and rate, and a NetSuite Connector node creates the billing record. Billable time flows straight toward invoicing without a manual re-entry step.
The Prompt
Paste this into Miraxa and it builds the workflow, connecting the tools for you:
Build a workflow with a Mailhook trigger that receives contractor timesheet emails. Pull the attached spreadsheet, read the contractor name, project, billable hours, and rate from it, then create a billing record in NetSuite with those values so the hours can be invoiced.
Connectors Used
- Mailhook - the trigger; each timesheet email to the workflow address starts a run.
- Attachment node - fetches the spreadsheet bytes from the inbound email.
- NetSuite - creates the billing record from the extracted hours.
Customize It
Change the fields you want pulled from the sheet (add cost center, approver, or task code), point at a different NetSuite record type, or add a rate override per client. You can also adjust which columns map to hours so the same template fits a different timesheet layout.
Tips
- The Attachment node only works in Mailhook workflows, so keep the Mailhook trigger as the start node.
- Use the NetSuite Connector node in Direct mode for a single, predictable create call; switch to Agent mode only if the record shape varies email to email.
- Share the Mailhook address with contractors as the standard submission inbox so every timesheet is captured.
