ApproveThis manages your KiSSFLOW Integration approvals.

Why This Integration Isn’t Just Another Buzzword

Let’s cut through the noise: Approval processes suck when they’re manual. KiSSFLOW automates workflows. ApproveThis automates approvals. Together? They turn “waiting for sign-off” from a week-long email chain to a two-click process. For companies juggling multiple departments or external partners, this combo isn’t nice-to-have – it’s your new productivity backbone.

KiSSFLOW lets non-tech teams build workflows for HR requests, purchase orders, or client onboarding. But when those workflows hit approval stages, things slow down. ApproveThis picks up the slack with dynamic routing, email-based approvals, and real-time tracking. The kicker? Approvers don’t need KiSSFLOW licenses. Perfect for external vendors or execs who just want to click “approve” without logging into another system.

Three Ways This Combo Actually Works in Real Life

1. HR Teams: Onboarding Without the Paper Avalanche

Picture this: A new hire triggers a KiSSFLOW workflow for equipment requests. When IT approval is needed, ApproveThis automatically:

• Routes the request based on cost thresholds (laptops vs. monitors)
• Pings department heads via email with one-click approve/deny
• Updates KiSSFLOW the second decisions are made

HR managers at a 300-employee healthcare company used this setup to cut onboarding time from 14 days to 3. No more chasing down approvers – the system nags for them.

2. Finance Teams: Purchase Orders That Don’t Require Mind Reading

KiSSFLOW workflows often die at the finance approval stage. With ApproveThis’ calculated fields:

• POs auto-route to junior accountants for purchases under $5K
• Require CFO approval over $25K
• Escalate after 24hrs of radio silence via vacation delegation

A manufacturing company handling 200+ monthly vendor payments slashed approval delays by 60%. Their AP team stopped playing detective with stuck requests.

3. Operations: Vendor Contracts That Actually Move Forward

When legal needs to review contracts in KiSSFLOW:

ApproveThis adds conditional logic – if Clause 7 exists, route to General Counsel. If not, skip to department head. One logistics firm automated 85% of their vendor renewals this way, avoiding $120K in late penalties last quarter.

Setting This Up Without Losing Your Mind

Zapier’s the glue here. No coding – just connect KiSSFLOW and ApproveThis in three steps:

1. Create Zapier triggers for KiSSFLOW workflow changes or ApproveThis decisions
2. Map custom fields between systems (budget amounts → approval thresholds)
3. Test with a real request – like a $1K marketing spend approval

Pro tip: Use ApproveThis’ calculated fields to auto-determine approval paths. If KiSSFLOW sends “Contract_Value=$50K”, route straight to CFO without manual triage.

Where This Hits Different for Each Team

For IT Managers

You’re tired of being the approval middleman. Set conditional rules in ApproveThis: Cloud software requests over $10K/month auto-require security team review. Integrates with your existing KiSSFLOW intake forms. Suddenly, you’re not the bottleneck anymore.

For Marketing Directors

Campaign budgets stuck in approval limbo? KiSSFLOW triggers ApproveThis requests that:

- Auto-approve under $3K (using thresholds)
- Require CMO + CFO sign-off over $20K
- Include ROI calculations from previous campaigns

One e-commerce team cut campaign launch times by 40% – their Q3 sales spike wasn’t a coincidence.

For Operations Leaders

Vendor SLAs require multiple department approvals. ApproveThis groups let you:

- Require consensus from legal, finance, and department heads
- Auto-reassign approvals when someone’s OOO
- Track every decision in audit-ready reports

A food distribution company used this to handle 450+ vendor certifications last year without missing a single renewal.

The Unsexy Stuff That Actually Matters

Beyond flashy features:

Compliance: Every approval decision timestamps in both systems. Auditors stop eye-rolling your processes.

External Approvers: Clients or vendors approve via email without KiSSFLOW access. No more “Can you PDF that for me?”

Real Visibility: See approval bottlenecks in ApproveThis’ dashboard – like which department head averages 3-day response times.

Bottom Line: This Isn’t Just Automation

It’s about eliminating the “Hey, did you see my approval request?” Slack messages. For teams scaling past 50 employees, manual approvals become a hidden tax on growth. KiSSFLOW builds the workflows. ApproveThis enforces the decisions. Together, they turn “pending” into “done” before your third coffee.
