Downloading declaration files
Downloads declaration ZIP files from ONS for a list of items and saves them to a shared folder.
Overview
Declaration files must be retrieved from ONS for each processing item. This automation finds the correct ZIP file for the month, downloads it to the shared folder with a fixed filename, and removes the item from the list so it is not processed twice.
What has changed
- No more manual downloading of recurring files
- Files are given the same name every time
- Files are ready for the next step

How it works.
What it does per item
- Logs in to ONS
- Loads the list of items to be processed
- Calculates the end date of the month
- Finds the correct ZIP file in the billing section
- Downloads it to the shared folder with a fixed filename
- Removes the item from the list so it is not processed again
Rules
The end date of the month determines which ZIP file is selected, and once an item is downloaded, it is removed from the list to prevent duplicate processing. Because the logic is fixed, the same input always yields the same result, and every run is logged.

Yarado monitors every run and is alerted automatically when one fails, so a problem is picked up on our side. Cases that need a person are reported to your team with the reason, in the portal or by email.
Yes. Automations are built around your own steps and systems, and this page is just one example of what is possible. A first automation is typically live in weeks, not months.
