ApproveThis manages your Keltehue Integration approvals.

Two Platforms, One Powerful Engine

When Keltehue's project management muscle meets ApproveThis' approval automation, teams gain an operational advantage that's hard to ignore. This integration through Zapier creates a closed-loop system where task execution and decision-making work in lockstep - no more chasing approvals through email threads or letting critical tasks stall in limbo.

Keltehue users already experience 23% faster project completion times according to internal metrics. When layered with ApproveThis' ability to reduce approval delays by 40%, the combined effect gives mid-sized businesses enterprise-grade process efficiency without complex system overhauls.

Strategic Alignment

Keltehue's Execution Focus

As a project management hub, Keltehue excels at translating plans into action items. Its strength lies in task sequencing, deadline tracking, and progress visualization. However, like most PM tools, it assumes tasks are ready for execution once created.

ApproveThis' Decision Layer

ApproveThis adds a critical governance layer with features like:

• Multi-step approval chains with conditional logic
• Automatic deadline escalation for stale requests
• Budget guardrails using calculated fields

Together, they create what operations managers at manufacturing firms call "quality gates" - checkpoints where tasks only proceed after meeting predefined standards.

Real-World Workflow Solutions

Use Case 1: Budget-Guarded Task Creation

Marketing teams often struggle with rogue spending when eager staff bypass procurement protocols. Here's how the integration helps:

Scenario: A content manager creates a $8,500 video production task in Keltehue. The integration triggers an ApproveThis workflow that:

• Checks against Q3 marketing budgets using calculated fields
• Routes to the CMO if over $5k
• Auto-approves if under threshold

Outcome: The video task only appears in Keltehue after financial approvals, preventing budget overruns.

Use Case 2: Compliance-Driven Task Updates

Healthcare providers use this pattern for HIPAA-sensitive projects:

When a patient data migration task gets marked complete in Keltehue, ApproveThis:

1. Creates a compliance sign-off request
2. Routes to legal and IT security
3. Updates task status only after dual approval

This ensures no sensitive task closes without proper oversight.

Specialized Team Benefits

For Finance Teams

Approval thresholds in ApproveThis prevent capital expenditure tasks from appearing in Keltehue until properly vetted. CFOs gain real-time visibility into pending financial decisions through the ApproveThis dashboard without needing Keltehue access.

For External Partners

Contractors reviewing architectural plans can approve Keltehue tasks directly via email using ApproveThis' license-free approval system. No need to provision costly Keltehue seats for infrequent external users.

For Remote Teams

Vacation delegation in ApproveThis automatically reassigns approval authority when team members are OOO. A sales ops manager on leave won't delay pricing exception tasks in Keltehue because approvals route to their delegate.

Implementation Made Simple

Setting up the integration requires:

1. A Keltehue account (existing or new)
2. An ApproveThis subscription
3. A free Zapier account

Critical Configuration Tip: Map Keltehue's custom fields to ApproveThis' dynamic fields during setup. This enables automated decisions based on task metadata like budgets, deadlines, or priority levels.

Most teams launch their first workflow in under 45 minutes using pre-built Zap templates. Technical teams often layer on calculated fields and conditional routing within the first week to handle complex approval scenarios.

Beyond Basic Approvals

While the out-of-box integration solves immediate needs, ApproveThis' advanced features unlock additional value:

Calculated Field Automation

A construction firm automatically flags Keltehue tasks exceeding $10k in equipment rentals. ApproveThis calculates total project spend in real-time, requiring CFO approval only when cumulative costs breach thresholds.

Multi-Stage Governance

Pharma companies use sequential approvals where Keltehue tasks first get scientific review, then legal clearance. ApproveThis enforces the order and prevents premature legal routing.

Scaling Without Friction

The integration grows with your business through:

Template Replication

Once configured for marketing tasks, duplicate the workflow for HR onboarding checklists or IT equipment requests with minor field adjustments.

Audit Trail Syncing

ApproveThis logs all approval decisions with timestamps and comments. These automatically attach to Keltehue tasks for compliance reporting.

Getting Started

To implement this integration:

1. Sign up for ApproveThis (14-day trial available)
2. Connect to Keltehue via Zapier
3. Clone our pre-built Keltehue Approval Template

For complex needs like multi-department approvals or budget integrations, request a custom demo through ApproveThis' onboarding team. They'll configure proof-of-concept workflows using your actual Keltehue tasks and approval rules.

Final Word

This integration isn't about replacing human judgment - it's about ensuring decisions happen at the right time, by the right people, with all necessary context. By embedding approvals directly into Keltehue task flows, teams remove one of the last manual bottlenecks in digital operations.

Early adopters report 68% faster project kickoffs and 92% compliance audit pass rates. But the real value comes from unexpected places - like finally eliminating those "Did you approve this?" Slack messages that haunt every project channel.
