Keeper Integration

ApproveThis manages your Keeper Integration approvals.

Integration Category: Business Intelligence

Let’s cut through the noise: approval processes suck. They’re the traffic jam of business operations – everyone’s honking, nobody’s moving, and your client satisfaction is bleeding out in the backseat. That’s why pairing ApproveThis with Keeper isn’t just another “integration.” It’s a straight-up intervention for teams drowning in “Hey, did you approve that?” Slack messages.

Why This Combo Works Like a Double Shot of Espresso

Keeper keeps your bookkeeping clients organized. ApproveThis keeps decisions moving. Together, they turn “waiting on approvals” from a full-time job into background noise. Think of it like autopilot for client operations – tasks get approved, client records update automatically, and you’re not babysitting spreadsheets at midnight.

What Changes Today

• No more client data entry roulette
• Approval delays don’t torpedo your KPIs
• Clients stop asking why simple requests take 3 days

Real Sh*t You Can Automate Right Now

1. Auto-Create Clients When Sh*t Hits the Fan (aka New Requests)

The Problem: New project request comes in → someone forgets to create a Keeper client → accounting blows up your phone.

The Fix: Connect ApproveThis’ “New Request” trigger to Keeper’s “Create Client” action in Zapier. Now when your sales team approves a new client project, Keeper auto-generates the client record. No spreadsheets. No missed clients. No 9 PM accounting emails.

Who Cares: Marketing agencies approving campaign budgets. Law firms onboarding new cases. Basically any team where “new client” doesn’t mean “new administrative nightmare.”

2. Task Updates That Actually Do Something Useful

The Problem: Your PM updates a task status in Keeper → Crickets → Missed deadline → Client wants a discount.

The Fix: Zapier watches Keeper’s task status changes. When something’s marked “Ready for Review,” ApproveThis fires off approval requests to the right people. Approvers get email notifications (they can approve/reject without even logging in). No license required for them – huge win when dealing with external clients.

Who Cares: Construction firms managing contractor sign-offs. SaaS companies pushing feature updates. Anyone whose projects have more moving parts than a Swiss watch.

3. Approval Decisions That Update Client Records Automagically

The Problem: Client’s budget gets approved in ApproveThis → Someone manually copies data to Keeper → Typo happens → Client gets billed wrong amount.

The Fix: When an ApproveThis request gets approved/denied, Zapier updates Keeper client properties automatically. Approved budget increases? Keeper reflects it instantly. Contract denied? Client status changes to “On Hold.” Zero human error.

Who Cares: Accounting firms managing client retainers. Property managers handling lease approvals. Any business where approval = financial impact.

Why This Isn’t Just Another Zapier Gimmick

ApproveThis brings muscle where Keeper needs it most:

  • Approval Thresholds: Auto-approve small budget bumps (<$500) but escalate big asks. Keeper tracks the final numbers either way.
  • Vacation Coverage: Approver out? Requests auto-route to their backup. No client delays because Karen’s at the Grand Canyon.
  • Calculated Fields: Automatically add 10% contingency to project budgets during approval. Keeper gets the updated number without manual math.

Setting This Up Without Losing Your Cool

1. Create a Zapier account (free tier works)
2. Connect ApproveThis and Keeper as apps
3. Pick a trigger (e.g., “New Request in ApproveThis”)
4. Choose an action (e.g., “Create Client in Keeper”)
5. Map fields between apps (takes 2 minutes)
6. Test with a real request
7. Never manually update client records again

Which Teams Stop Hating Their Jobs

Client Services: Stop being the messenger between approvers and Keeper records.
Finance: Approved budgets automatically flow into Keeper – no more invoice surprises.
Operations: See approval statuses and client data in one dashboard instead of 12 tabs.

Bottom Line

This integration isn’t about features. It’s about fixing the crap that makes work suck. Clients get faster responses. Approvers aren’t chasing emails. You look like a hero for actually delivering on “streamlined processes.”
