An ION automation is a prebuilt integration that First Resonance maintains and runs logic against ION when an event fires. It can write back to ION, send notifications, generate documents, or call an external system. Deploy one from the Marketplace; see [Deploy an integration or automation](/automate-with-ion/integrations/deploying-integrations-and-automations). You can browse this same list in ION itself: in the sidebar, select **Integrations**. Both ION automations and [ION Actions](/automate-with-ion/ion-actions) run custom logic on an ION event, but they work differently. An ION Action runs inside ION while a change is being saved, so it can allow, block, or warn on that change. An ION automation runs on the integration platform and reacts to an event that has already happened, so it can't allow, block, or warn on a change. Instead it takes action, such as firing mutations, sending notifications, or calling external systems. | Automation | Description | | --------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Auto-approve part-procedure relationships | Approves a part-procedure link automatically and fills in its optional or required field. | | Auto-assign issue on creation | Assigns a new issue to the part's responsible engineer, the run's creator, or a configured team, in order. | | Auto-assign PO to the creator of the PO | Assigns the purchase order's creator as its assignee when the PO is created. | | Auto-checkout on inactivity | Checks a user out of their run session after a period of inactivity. | | Auto-consumption of line-side inventory | Deducts line-side inventory against the run's mBOM when a configured run step completes. | | Auto-create linear step dependencies | Adds a dependency from a newly inserted step to the steps immediately before and after it. | | Auto-kit expired material | Kits inventory nearing its expiration date on a schedule and assigns the kit to a team. | | Auto-populate quality clauses based on purchase order tier | Sets a PO's quality clauses from a configured tier attribute value. | | Auto-send purchase emails to suppliers | Emails a purchase order PDF to its supplier when triggered from ION. | | Auto-update mBOM revision on part revision update | Bumps the mBOM revision, and any draft mBOMs, when a part is revised. | | Auto-update part library cost based on purchase order line cost | Updates a part's library unit cost from its PO line cost once the order is placed. | | Autogenerate child issue for remove and replace dispositions | Creates a linked child issue for the removed part when an issue's disposition needs one. | | Autoplan scheduler | Runs Autoplan on a configured schedule instead of only on demand. | | Complete informational steps | Autocompletes an informational step, and its parent, once you've completed it once before. | | Data imprint | Copies a value between related ION records, such as part pedigree onto inventory. | | Data imprint from run step field to part inventory attribute | Copies a run step field's value onto the run's part inventory attribute. | | Imprint vendor name to part inventory | Copies the supplier name, or your org name for made parts, onto new part inventory. | | Intent data imprint | Copies intent-level data from runs and purchase orders onto part inventory, and applies upgrade or downgrade dispositions. | | ION Actions to control PO approval workflow | Deploys ION Action rules that enforce PO approval requirements, such as reviewer changes and cost-threshold approvals. | | Maintain only one procedure version | Archives a procedure's older versions when a new version is approved. | | Map inspection procedures by intent level | Creates an inspection procedure for a received part based on its PO line's intent level. | | Map inspection procedures by quality clauses | Creates an inspection run for a received part based on the quality clauses on its PO line. | | Migrate PO attribute data | Moves a value from one PO attribute to another, converting a number to text. | | Notify purchase order assignee of PO approval | Notifies the PO assignee, or its creator if none is set, when an approval is approved or rejected. | | Part inventory intent management | Blocks installing lower-intent inventory into a higher-intent part or kit. | | PO header to PO line attribute propagation | Copies purchase order attributes onto its lines, including mapped Need By and ETA dates. | | PO status control | Deploys ION Action rules that block a PO from skipping approval or entering review before every line has a cost. | | Prevent run closure if aBOM is not completed | Blocks a run's last step from completing or canceling until the aBOM is fully filled out. | | Purchase order PDF and versions | Versions a purchase order and generates a PDF as it changes through approval. | | Receiving data input requirements | Requires a receiving location, blocks over-receipt, or requires a serial or lot number, per your configuration. | | Recreate run on failure | Creates a replacement run when another run fails, so you can schedule the rework. | | Replace team assignee with specific role | Reassigns an issue from a team to a specific role on that team, such as the on-call person. | | Require part inventory details on run creation | Blocks run creation without a part inventory item, or without a lot or serial number, per your configuration. | | Run scheduler | Duplicates a run on a fixed schedule for work that repeats predictably. | | Scrap inventory on scrap disposition | Sets an issue's inventory to Scrapped when the issue resolves with a scrap disposition. | | Set close-by on issue creation | Sets the run step an issue must resolve by, so the run can't close while it's open. | | Set kitting status to draft | Sets a kit created from a run to Draft instead of Requested, so you can finish it before requesting. | | Update tool date of last maintenance | Sets a tool's last-maintained date when its maintenance run completes. | | Upload PO PDF to PO | Generates a PDF and attaches it to the purchase order once it's ordered. | ## Related * [Deploy an integration or automation](/automate-with-ion/integrations/deploying-integrations-and-automations) * [ION Actions](/automate-with-ion/ion-actions)
