When Scheduling Meets Approval Power
Let’s get real – managing appointments is messy enough without adding approval bottlenecks to the mix. Appointy handles the scheduling circus like a pro, but what happens when your $5,000 consulting session needs VP sign-off before getting booked? That’s where ApproveThis comes in with brass knuckles.
Why This Combo Doesn’t Suck
Appointy’s great at letting people pick time slots. ApproveThis is great at getting decisions unstuck. Together through Zapier, they handle the full lifecycle: booking requests → approvals → confirmed appointments → customer creation. No more "Who approved this?" emails at 2 AM.
For Teams That Hate Wasting Money
ApproveThis approvers don’t need Appointy licenses. Perfect when you’ve got external partners or clients approving high-value bookings. Your CFO will high-five you for not paying $20/month for someone who just clicks "approve" twice a quarter.
Real Uses for Real Companies
1. Healthcare Clinics: No More Double-Booked Surgeries
Imagine a specialty clinic using Appointy for patient bookings. Their Zapier integration with ApproveThis automatically routes any procedure requiring special equipment to the Chief of Surgery. Approval thresholds auto-approve routine physicals but flag anything over 4 hours for review. Calculated fields check insurance eligibility in real time. No more showing up to an OR that’s not approved – or covered.
2. Consulting Firms: Stop Giving Away Free Hours
When a Fortune 500 client books a 50-hour strategy session through Appointy, ApproveThis:
- Checks if the rate matches the master service agreement
- Routes to the engagement partner if scope creeps past initial terms
- Auto-denies requests that conflict with non-compete clauses
All before the consultant’s calendar gets blocked.
3. Education Programs: Keep Parents in Their Lane
Private tutors using Appointy can set approval rules so parents can’t book:
- More than 2 sessions/week without staff review
- Test prep packages before diagnostic exams are graded
- Make-up classes during peak holiday periods
All enforced automatically through calculated fields and approval thresholds.
Setting This Up Without Losing Your Mind
Connect Appointy + ApproveThis in Zapier in 3 steps even your least techy manager can handle:
- Trigger: New Appointy appointment → Zapier catches it
- Action: ApproveThis creates request with key details (client name, service type, cost)
- Kickback: Approved? Appointy confirms booking. Denied? Automatic cancellation email goes out
Pro tip: Use ApproveThis’ vacation delegation so summer Fridays don’t bottleneck approvals.
Department Wins That Actually Matter
Operations Teams
Stop playing calendar Tetris. Approval thresholds automatically greenlight 85% of routine bookings, only escalating exceptions. Real-time tracking shows exactly which requests are stuck and why.
Finance Nerds
Auto-attach project codes or cost centers to approved appointments. If someone tries booking a luxury venue before budget approval? Shut it down faster than you can say "compliance violation."
Sales Leaders
Ever had a rep promise custom demos they can’t deliver? Approval groups require sales director + solutions architect sign-off before those time slots ever go live in Appointy.
What You’re Not Getting Elsewhere
Other tools make you choose between flexibility and control. This combo gives both:
Appointy’s scheduling + ApproveThis’ conditional logic = Rules that actually adapt to real business needs. Not some rigid "if this then that" flowchart from 1998.
The Killer Feature Everyone Misses
Email-based approvals mean approvers never have to log into another system. They get the request, click approve/reject, and get back to actual work. No training. No passwords. No excuses.
When This Isn’t Magic
Look – if your approval process is "the CEO forwards emails to his assistant," keep doing that. But if you’ve got:
- Multi-location teams
- External partners needing input
- Compliance requirements beyond "trust me bro"
...this integration becomes your secret weapon.
Make the Robots Work for You
Appointy handles the when. ApproveThis handles the who. Together through Zapier, they handle the "how did we ever do this manually?" moments. Set up takes 15 minutes. The ROI hits faster than your next status meeting.
Appointy’s the scheduling muscle. ApproveThis is the approval brain. Connect them through Zapier and watch your team actually hit those SLAs for once.
