ApproveThis manages your Humanagement Integration approvals.

When Bureaucracy Meets Automation

Let’s cut through the corporate jargon. You’re using Humanagement to handle employee data, track KPIs, and manage requests. But when it comes to getting actual decisions made, you’re still stuck chasing people through Slack, email, and carrier pigeon. ApproveThis isn’t another layer of red tape – it’s the missing “approval engine” that plugs directly into Humanagement via Zapier, turning your HR workflows from “waiting on Bob” to “done by EOD.”

Why This Combo Doesn’t Suck

Humanagement keeps your employee house in order. ApproveThis locks down who can move the furniture. Together via Zapier, they handle the three things that matter:

• No more approval black holes: Every request in Humanagement automatically becomes a tracked, deadline-driven approval process
• External approvers won’t cost you: Vendors, clients, or execs can approve directly via email without needing a Humanagement login

Example: A retail chain uses Humanagement for shift change requests. Without ApproveThis, managers drown in Slack pings. Connect the two, and every request auto-routes to the right approver based on location, department, or dollar impact. Denied requests automatically notify employees and update Humanagement profiles.

Real Workflows for Real Companies

1. Tech Startups: No More Founder Bottlenecks

Your 150-person SaaS company uses Humanagement for onboarding. Every new hire needs laptop approvals, software access, and department assignments. Problem? The CTO keeps ignoring approval emails until day 3. Solution:

Zapier triggers an ApproveThis workflow when Humanagement gets a new hire request. The CFO auto-approves budgets under $5K (thanks to approval thresholds), IT gets tagged for hardware specs, and the CTO only gets pinged if it’s a leadership hire. All approvals happen in email or Slack, no new logins required.

2. Manufacturing: When Safety Approvals Can’t Wait

A plant manager submits a safety equipment request in Humanagement. Old way: Paper form → email → missed deadline → OSHA violation. New way:

ApproveThis creates a sequential approval chain – safety officer → operations lead → finance. If any step takes longer than 24 hours, it escalates. Approved? Humanagement auto-updates the equipment log. Denied? The requester gets reasons documented in both systems.

3. Agencies: Client Approvals Without the Headache

You manage 50 contractors in Humanagement. A client requests a scope change. Instead of back-and-forth emails:

Zapier fires an ApproveThis request to the client’s email (no account needed). They approve/deny with one click. The result auto-logs in Humanagement’s project tracker and notifies the contractor. Bonus: Vacation delegation means if the client’s main contact is OOO, it routes to their deputy automatically.

Setup That Doesn’t Require a PhD

Forget “integration consultants.” Here’s how this actually works:

1. Pick Your Pain Point: Start with one workflow – expense approvals, shift changes, whatever’s causing the most delays
2. Build the Zap: In Zapier, set Humanagement as the trigger (new request, new division, etc.)
3. Map to ApproveThis: Define who approves what, set escalation rules, add calculated fields if needed (e.g., “if request > $10K, require CFO sign-off”)

Pro tip: Use ApproveThis’ calculated fields to auto-route requests. Example: A Humanagement training request could calculate total cost (hours × rate) and send it only to managers with budget authority.

Department-Specific Wins

HR Teams: Onboarding That Doesn’t Embarrass You

New hire’s laptop specs need IT approval, their desk setup needs facilities, and their manager needs to confirm department budget. Connect Humanagement’s onboarding checklists to ApproveThis for parallel approvals. HR gets a dashboard view instead of playing mediator.

Finance: Budget Enforcement Without Being the Bad Guy

Humanagement handles purchase requests. ApproveThis adds conditional thresholds – under $1K auto-approves, $1K-$5K needs department heads, over $5K requires finance. Denials include a reason that auto-logs in Humanagement for audit trails.

Operations: Scale Without the Chaos

Opening a new location? Humanagement tracks the setup. ApproveThis handles vendor contracts, permit approvals, and equipment orders. Approval groups let regional managers and legal review in parallel, not sequentially.

The Nuts and Bolts You Care About

Approval Groups: Require 3/5 department heads to approve a policy change. Or make the CFO approve after the VP – your call.

Email Approvals: External vendors approve NDAs without creating accounts. Clients sign off on project changes without another damn portal login.

Real-Time Tracking: See which requests are stuck, who’s sitting on them, and why. Export reports to slap on your next board deck.

“But Wait, There’s More” (Except Actually Useful)

ApproveThis doesn’t just rubber-stamp requests. It adds logic to your Humanagement data:

Vacation Delegation: Sales director on PTO? Approvals auto-reassign to their deputy, then revert when they’re back. No more “I was out of office” excuses.

Dynamic Fields: Automatically calculate training costs (hours × hourly rate) from Humanagement data to determine if a request needs VP approval.

No-BS Next Steps

If you’re using Humanagement for HR stuff but still doing approvals manually, you’re leaving speed and accountability on the table. ApproveThis isn’t another “enterprise solution” – it’s the approval layer that makes your existing tools actually work.

Get a free ApproveThis account, connect it to Humanagement in Zapier, and automate your first approval flow in 20 minutes. Or schedule a demo to see how a manufacturing company cut approval delays by 70%.

Either way, stop letting approval chaos dictate your pace. These tools work – time to make them work for you.
