An electronic invoice finishes validation in ValidaCFDI while an accounts team is processing other work. If the result is important, someone may need to know immediately rather than discover it during a later review. New CFDI Validation can start a Zap that uses Mobile Message to send a plain-text SMS to the responsible person or team.

This is useful for alerting staff that a Mexican CFDI has been checked against the SAT database and that the validation result is ready for review. Mobile Message can send an individual SMS, send SMS to a list, create a contact or update a contact. A business can therefore notify an accounts list, create a contact connected to the process, or send a direct message to a reviewer.

ValidaCFDI also offers Validate CFDI and Validate PDF Invoice actions. Those actions can be used in a wider Zap when another service starts the workflow, but the supplied New CFDI Validation trigger is the clearest event for a Mobile Message notification. The connection is configured in Zapier with both accounts. It is a one-way event automation, not a native synchronised link, and SMS should contain concise validation information.
