ApproveThis manages your Oveit Integration approvals.

When Event Management Meets Approval Muscle

Let’s get real: event planning is 80% logistics and 20% putting out fires. Oveit handles the ticket sales and registration heavy lifting, but what happens when you need human sign-offs on last-minute vendor contracts, VIP ticket exceptions, or budget overages? That’s where throwing ApproveThis into your tech stack stops the madness.

Connect these two through Zapier, and you’ve got a system where every order, ticket change, or high-stakes request in Oveit automatically kicks off structured approvals. Finance gets budget control without micromanaging. Operations avoids bottlenecks. And your external vendors? They approve things via email without needing a Oveit login.

Why This Combo Doesn’t Just “Work” – It Fixes Sh*t

For Companies That Run Events (Without Running Their Team Ragged)

Imagine a music festival where every merch order over $5K needs CFO approval. Normally, this means 12 Slack pings and a spreadsheet. With this integration? Oveit triggers an ApproveThis workflow the second the order hits. The CFO gets an email, clicks ‘approve,’ and Oveit auto-processes the order. No back-and-forth. No missed requests.

Where ApproveThis Does the Heavy Lifting

Oveit tells you when stuff happens. ApproveThis decides who needs to greenlight it and how fast. Use cases:

• High-Value Orders: Auto-flag orders that exceed budget thresholds
• VIP Ticket Exceptions: Require marketing lead approval for comp tickets

Bonus: Approvers don’t need Oveit licenses. Huge when working with external agencies or execs who won’t log into another system.

Real-World Scenarios That Don’t Suck

Use Case 1: No More “Who Approved This?!” Moments

The Problem: Your corporate conference allows department heads to request premium ticket packages. But last quarter, sales booked $20K in unapproved upgrades.

The Fix: Zapier triggers an ApproveThis workflow whenever Oveit gets a premium ticket order. Rules auto-route requests based on department budgets. Finance gets notified if limits are hit. All approvals happen in email – no chasing down approvers.

Use Case 2: Killing Ticket Change Chaos

The Problem: Attendees constantly upgrade tickets post-purchase. Your team manually checks each request against capacity limits.

The Fix: Oveit ticket updates trigger approval requests. ApproveThis uses calculated fields to check real-time capacity. If space exists, auto-approve. If not, route to events team. No more spreadsheets.

Setting This Up Without Losing Your Mind

1. Zapier Setup: Create a new Zap. Choose Oveit’s “New Order” or “Ticket Update” as trigger.
2. Connect ApproveThis: Select “Create Request” action. Map Oveit data to approval fields (order amount, ticket type, etc.).
3. Set Rules: In ApproveThis, build workflows. Example: “Route all orders >$5K to CFO + marketing director.”
4. Test: Buy a test ticket in Oveit. Confirm approval emails fire correctly.

Pro Tip: Use ApproveThis’ calculated fields to auto-flag orders that exceed budget divided by event days. Because math > manual work.

Which Teams Stop Hating Their Inbox

Event Planners: From Middlemen to Strategists

Your job isn’t to beg directors for sign-offs. With automated approvals, you set the rules once. Oveit handles attendee experience; ApproveThis handles internal politics.

Finance Teams: Control Without Micromanaging

Budget thresholds in ApproveThis mean you only get pinged when it matters. Example: Auto-approve catering orders under $2K, escalate anything higher. No more surprise invoices.

Operations: Fix Bottlenecks Before They Happen

Real-time dashboards in ApproveThis show where requests get stuck. Spot that logistics manager who’s sitting on 12 approvals? Reassign instantly. Or use vacation delegation so approvals don’t die when someone’s OOO.

This Isn’t Just “Another Integration”

Oveit’s great at moving tickets. ApproveThis is great at moving decisions. Together, they handle the two things that slow down events: logistics and human bottlenecks. Add in features like email approvals (no app access needed) and conditional routing, and you’ve got a system that scales whether you’re handling 50 registrations or 5K.

Look, if your team’s still doing approvals via email chains or – god forbid – printed forms, you’re leaving time and money on the table. This isn’t about tech for tech’s sake. It’s about making sure your next event doesn’t include a side of burnout.

Time to Stop Approving, Start Automating

ApproveThis + Oveit via Zapier takes about 20 minutes to set up. Less time than it takes to get a coffee order approved at most companies. Book a demo to see how it works, or just sign up and connect the dots yourself. Your future self (and your team) will thank you.
