🔬 Detect revenue leakage with Salesforce, Google Sheets, Gemini, and Slack

⚡ 16 views · 🔬 Document Extraction & Analysis

Description

Quick overview

This workflow manually audits Closed Won Salesforce opportunities against billed amounts in Google Sheets, uses Google Gemini to analyze any revenue gap, then alerts a Slack user and writes an audit note back to the Salesforce opportunity.

How it works

1. Starts when you run the workflow manually.
2. Fetches up to 20 Salesforce opportunities where the stage is “Closed Won” and processes them in batches with a short delay to reduce API pressure.
3. Looks up matching billing rows in Google Sheets and totals the billed amount for the same Deal ID, then calculates the missing revenue versus the Salesforce Amount.
4. For deals with a positive revenue gap, sends the discrepancy details to Google Gemini to classify severity and generate a root cause, recommendation, and Salesforce-ready audit note.
5. Parses the Gemini JSON response and builds a formatted Slack message containing the deal, gap, severity, and recommended action.
6. Sends the Slack alert and updates the Salesforce opportunity description with the audit note and the expected, billed, and missing amounts.

Setup

1. Add credentials for Salesforce OAuth2, Google Sheets OAuth2, Google Gemini (PaLM) API, and Slack OAuth2.
2. In Salesforce, ensure opportunities have Amount, AccountId, StageName, and Name populated and that you want to audit only deals in the “Closed Won” stage.
3. Update the Google Sheets document and sheet to your billing ledger, and ensure it contains columns named “Deal ID” and “Billed Amount” that match Salesforce AccountId values.
4. In Slack, select the target user (or change the node to post to a channel) and verify the connected workspace has permission to send messages.
5. Optionally adjust the Salesforce fetch limit, batch size, and wait duration to fit your deal volume and API limits.
