Target Audience

This workflow is ideal for:
- Data Analysts: Who need to quickly aggregate financial data for reporting.
- Finance Teams: Looking to automate the summation of various monetary inputs.
- Developers: Who want a simple manual trigger to test functions with mock data.
- Business Owners: Seeking insights into financial metrics without complex setups.

Problem Solved

This workflow addresses the need for a manual trigger to execute a sequence of automated tasks that sum up various financial amounts. It eliminates the need for repetitive manual calculations by providing a streamlined process to aggregate monetary values, allowing users to focus on analysis rather than computation.

Workflow Steps

  • Manual Trigger: The workflow begins with a manual trigger, which allows users to start the process by clicking 'execute'.
    2. Mock Data Generation: Upon execution, the workflow generates mock financial data, simulating amounts in USD: $50, $20, and $60.
    3. Summation Function: The workflow then processes the mock data, summing the amounts to produce a total value of $130. This is returned as a well-formed JSON object, ready for further use or analysis.
  • Customization Guide

    Users can customize this workflow by:
    - Modifying the Mock Data: Change the amounts in the Mock data node to reflect different financial scenarios or datasets.
    - Adjusting the Summation Logic: Modify the Summing function to include additional calculations or different fields as needed.
    - Adding More Nodes: Incorporate additional nodes for further processing, such as sending the total via email or storing it in a database.
    - Changing Trigger Type: Adapt the workflow to use different trigger types (e.g., scheduled triggers) for automation without manual intervention.
