Why Approval Automation Matters Now

Modern businesses process hundreds of documents weekly - contracts, invoices, compliance forms - each requiring human review. Delays in approvals create operational bottlenecks, while manual errors in data entry compound risks. This is where combining ApproveThis' approval automation with DigiParser's document intelligence creates measurable impact.

DigiParser acts as the eyes of your operation, extracting critical data from PDFs, scans, and spreadsheets using OCR and AI. ApproveThis becomes the decision engine, routing this information to the right people through customized workflows. Together, they transform static documents into actionable business processes.

How These Platforms Work Together

When connected via Zapier, DigiParser and ApproveThis create closed-loop document handling:

  1. DigiParser extracts data from uploaded files (invoice amounts, contract terms, application details)
  2. ApproveThis uses this data to trigger approval workflows with context-aware routing rules

For approvers, this means reviewing pre-validated information instead of raw documents. For operations teams, it eliminates copy-paste errors between systems. Finance departments gain audit trails showing exactly which data points were approved.

Real-World Use Cases

Procurement Acceleration

A manufacturing company receives 50+ supplier invoices daily via email. DigiParser extracts vendor details, amounts, and PO numbers, then ApproveThis:

  • Routes invoices over $10K to department heads
  • Auto-approves recurring orders under $2K
  • Flags mismatches between invoice amounts and POs

Result: Accounts payable processes invoices 68% faster while reducing duplicate payments.

Client Onboarding Simplified

A law firm uses DigiParser to extract client data from engagement letters. ApproveThis then:

  • Sends conflict check requests to partners
  • Routes fee agreements to billing coordinators
  • Notifies paralegals when all approvals are secured

Benefit: New client setup time drops from 3 days to 4 hours, with full audit compliance.

Key Integration Features

This integration shines through three core capabilities:

Contextual Routing: When DigiParser extracts a contract value of $500K, ApproveThis can automatically route it to C-level executives while sending smaller contracts to department managers.

Field-Level Validation: Approval requests can highlight specific extracted data points needing verification - for example, asking approvers to confirm the expiration date in an insurance certificate.

Cross-Platform Visibility: Legal teams see document extraction status in DigiParser, then track approval progress in ApproveThis - no more switching between tabs to get updates.

Setup Guide: 4 Steps to Automation

1. Map Your Process: Identify which document types (NDAs, invoices) need approval and who must review them.

2. Configure DigiParser: Set up OCR templates to extract key fields like dates, amounts, or client IDs. Test with sample files at digiparser.com.

3. Build ApproveThis Workflows: Create rules like "Route all invoices over $X to Accounting Manager" using calculated fields from DigiParser data.

4. Connect via Zapier: Set triggers so parsed documents auto-create approval requests, and approved decisions update your CRM or ERP.

Team-Specific Benefits

Finance Teams

Reduce invoice approval cycles by auto-routing based on amount thresholds. ApproveThis' escalation rules prevent bottlenecks when approvers are OOO.

Legal Departments

Speed up contract reviews with side-by-side views of extracted terms and approval status. Version control issues disappear when all stakeholders work from the same data.

Operations Managers

Monitor approval SLAs in real dashboards. If vendor onboarding approvals take longer than 24hrs, get automatic alerts to investigate delays.

Critical Advantages

This integration solves two persistent business challenges:

External Collaboration: Clients or vendors can approve documents via email without needing access to DigiParser. ApproveThis sends them a secure link to review extracted data and click approve/reject.

Compliance Assurance: Every approval decision is logged with the exact data presented to approvers. If a $100K contract gets approved, auditors can verify that approvers saw the correct amount extracted by DigiParser.

When to Consider This Integration

This solution delivers maximum value when:

- You process over 100 documents/month requiring human approval
- Multiple teams/stakeholders are involved in review cycles
- Document-driven decisions impact financial or legal outcomes

For simple 1-step approvals on few documents, native tools might suffice. But for complex, high-stakes processes? This combo becomes indispensable.

Getting Started

ApproveThis offers a free tier for basic workflows, while DigiParser provides pay-as-you-go document processing. Implementation typically takes 2-3 days:

1. Document Audit: Identify 3-5 critical document types to automate first
2. Workflow Design: Map current approval steps and pain points
3. Integration Testing: Validate extracted data flows correctly into approval requests

Most teams achieve full ROI within 90 days through reduced processing costs and faster cycle times.
