Two Systems, One Powerful Partnership

When accounting meets approvals, business magic happens. Jortt's streamlined financial management and ApproveThis's decision automation create a partnership that solves critical pain points for growing companies. This integration doesn't just connect software - it bridges the gap between financial operations and organizational decision-making.

Consider this: 23% of invoice processing delays stem from approval bottlenecks (Ardent Partners). By connecting Jortt's accounting precision with ApproveThis's routing intelligence through Zapier, businesses achieve three core benefits:

  • Real-time synchronization between financial data and approval decisions
  • Automated compliance with accounting policies and spending limits
  • Complete audit trails from transaction initiation to final authorization

Accounting Teams Reclaim Control

Jortt users managing complex billing cycles gain particular advantage. A mid-sized construction firm using both platforms reduced invoice approval times from 14 days to 48 hours by automating their subcontractor payment workflows. Their process:

  1. Jortt detects overdue invoices
  2. ApproveThis routes payment requests to project managers
  3. Approval triggers automatic bank transfers

ApproveThis's calculated fields prove essential here, automatically flagging invoices exceeding project budgets before they reach approvers. This prevents costly overpayments while maintaining Jortt's clean financial records.

Four Transformative Use Cases

1. Invoice Approval Automation

Marketing agencies juggling client budgets benefit from the Zapier integration between Jortt and ApproveThis. When a new invoice creates in Jortt:

  • ApproveThis checks against client retainer agreements
  • Routes to both account leads and client contacts
  • Updates Jortt payment status upon approval

Approval groups ensure consensus between internal teams and external stakeholders, while vacation delegation prevents delays during holiday periods.

2. Client Onboarding Synchronization

Managed service providers use the approved request trigger to create Jortt customers automatically. When sales teams approve a new contract in ApproveThis:

  • Customer record populates in Jortt with SLA terms
  • Payment authorization documents generate automatically
  • Recurring invoice templates activate

This eliminates manual data entry errors that plague 34% of new account setups (Gartner).

3. Compliance-Driven Payments

Healthcare organizations leverage approval thresholds to meet strict financial regulations. When Jortt detects a vendor payment:

  • ApproveThis evaluates against HIPAA-compliant budgets
  • Escalates high-risk payments to compliance officers
  • Maintains audit-ready documentation

Real-time tracking provides CFOs with instant visibility into outstanding liabilities.

4. Recurring Revenue Management

SAAS companies automate subscription renewals through integrated direct debit approvals. When customers approve pricing changes:

  • ApproveThis updates Jortt payment authorizations
  • Triggers updated invoice schedules
  • Notifies CS teams of successful renewals

This closed-loop process reduces churn by ensuring billing alignment with service agreements.

Implementation Made Simple

Connecting Jortt and ApproveThis through Zapier requires three steps:

  1. Enable API access in both platforms
  2. Choose a trigger event (e.g., "New Invoice" in Jortt)
  3. Map data fields between systems

Key configuration tips:

  • Use ApproveThis's conditional logic to handle multi-currency approvals
  • Leverage Jortt's custom fields for project coding
  • Set up approval thresholds matching your fiscal policies

Most teams complete initial setup in under 90 minutes, with complex workflows taking up to half a day.

Cross-Functional Benefits

Finance Teams

Controllers gain real-time visibility into payment liabilities through ApproveThis's dashboard while maintaining Jortt's audit-ready records. Automatic escalation of overdue approvals improves days sales outstanding (DSO) metrics.

Operations Managers

Approval groups enable parallel reviews from safety, procurement, and finance stakeholders. Vacation delegation keeps projects moving during peak leave periods.

External Collaborators

Client approvers interact through simple email approvals without needing Jortt licenses. Real-time status updates reduce "check-in" calls by 62% based on user reports.

Critical Differentiation

While other approval tools integrate with accounting systems, ApproveThis uniquely supports:

  • Multi-tiered approvals with conditional branching
  • Email-based decisions maintaining Jortt data integrity
  • Dynamic calculations for complex financial scenarios

A regional bank using both platforms prevented $240k in duplicate payments last quarter through automated invoice matching - a feature combining Jortt's transaction data with ApproveThis's approval logic.

Getting Started

Begin with a single workflow:

  1. Register for ApproveThis
  2. Connect your Jortt account via Zapier
  3. Automate invoice approvals

For complex implementations, schedule a workflow design session with ApproveThis's integration specialists. They'll help configure:

  • Multi-country VAT approval rules
  • Project-based budget thresholds
  • Custom reporting integrations

The Future of Financial Operations

As businesses face increasing pressure to optimize cash flow, the Jortt-ApproveThis integration represents more than automation - it's a strategic advantage. Companies using both platforms report:

  • 79% faster month-end closures
  • 63% reduction in payment errors
  • 41% improvement in vendor satisfaction

These metrics translate to tangible business impact. One manufacturing client redirected 290 annual hours from administrative tasks to strategic analysis - equivalent to adding a full-time financial analyst.
