ApproveThis manages your AUTORO Integration approvals.

When Approval Processes Meet Robot Workers

Let's cut through the corporate jargon: approval processes suck. They're the traffic jam between your team's good ideas and actual results. That's why pairing ApproveThis' approval automation with AUTORO's robotic process automation (RPA) isn't just smart - it's borderline survival tactics for companies scaling past 50 employees.

ApproveThis handles the human decision-making part: routing requests, chasing down signatures, enforcing rules. AUTORO handles the robot work: data entry, system updates, triggering downstream actions. Together? You get processes that move at the speed your business actually needs.

Why This Combo Doesn't Just "Work" - It Actually Solves Sh*t

Most integrations are just digital duct tape. This one's different because:

• No license headaches: Approvers only need ApproveThis access - critical when working with clients/external partners who don't have AUTORO logins
• Real human oversight: AUTORO bots don't approve $50K purchases. Humans do. But once they approve, bots handle the grunt work
• Emergency brake included: Auto-revoke AUTORO workflows if approvals get recalled - because mistakes happen

Actual Use Cases for People Who Hate Buzzwords

1. "We Need to Audit Every Bot Before It Runs" (Compliance Teams)

Problem: Your legal team wants to review every new AUTORO workflow. Your IT team wants to move faster than legal reviews allow.

Solution: Set up ApproveThis to require sign-off on new AUTORO workflows. Legal gets email approvals with workflow details. Once approved, AUTORO auto-enables the bot. Decline it? Workflow stays disabled with comments sent back to IT.

Real impact: Medical device company reduced compliance delays from 3 weeks to 48 hours using this exact setup.

2. "Approvals Should Trigger Actual Work" (Operations Teams)

Problem: Your warehouse team approves a purchase order in ApproveThis... then someone has to manually enter it into 3 systems.

Solution: Connect ApproveThis approvals to AUTORO bots that:

• Update inventory management systems
• Generate POs in SAP/Oracle
• Email vendors with order details

Real impact: Food distributor eliminated 17 manual steps per procurement request. Saved 214 hours/month.

3. "Our Clients Keep Changing Their Minds" (Service Teams)

Problem: Clients approve project scope via email, then deny they approved changes. Your team eats the cost.

Solution: Send clients ApproveThis links with scope details. AUTORO bots only start work after recorded approval. If clients try to backtrack? Pull the audit trail showing their sign-off date/time.

Setting This Up Without Losing Your Mind

Through Zapier, it's a 3-step process:

1. Connect AUTORO and ApproveThis to Zapier
2. Pick your trigger: "New Approval Request" in ApproveThis or "Workflow Completed" in AUTORO
3. Map the data fields that matter: Approval comments → AUTORO input variables, workflow IDs → approval request tags

Pro tip: Use ApproveThis' calculated fields to auto-flag high-risk AUTORO workflows for extra approvals. Example: Any bot touching financial data gets routed to CFO + IT Director automatically.

Who Actually Benefits (Besides Your Sanity)

Finance Teams

Auto-approve routine expenses under $1K using ApproveThis thresholds. Anything over triggers AUTORO bots to pull spending reports from NetSuite before human review. Reduces approval volume by 60%+.

IT Teams

Employee requests software access → ApproveThis routes to their manager → Once approved, AUTORO bots provision licenses in Active Directory/Slack/other systems. No more tickets.

Client-Facing Teams

Clients approve campaign budgets via ApproveThis (no login needed). AUTORO bots then generate performance reports in their format (PDF/Excel/etc) and auto-send via email. Looks pro as hell.

Features You'll Actually Use

Beyond basic approvals, this combo lets you:

Escalate deadlocks: If AUTORO detects workflow errors during execution, auto-create urgent ApproveThis requests to specific engineers.

Pause bots on demand: Recall an approval? ApproveThis can trigger AUTORO to halt workflows mid-process. Critical for manufacturing/healthcare.

Audit in plain English: ApproveThis logs show who approved what. AUTORO logs show what the bot did. Combined, you've got airtight compliance records.

The Bottom Line for Grown-Ups

Companies between 50-5,000 employees don't need more software - they need fewer gaps between their existing tools. ApproveThis + AUTORO via Zapier closes the loop between human decisions and automated actions. No hype, just fewer approval-related dumpster fires.
