When Feedback Meets Action

Modern businesses face a critical challenge: employee recognition that's both meaningful and measurable. While 360Score.me excels at capturing peer-to-peer feedback through shoutouts and engagement surveys, ApproveThis brings structure to what happens next. Together through Zapier, these platforms create closed-loop workflows where recognition triggers real business outcomes.

Consider a sales team using 360Score.me shoutouts to highlight top performers. Without approval workflows:

  • Managers miss 37% of recognition-tied bonus requests (Gallup)
  • HR spends 6 hours/week manually verifying recognition data
The integration fixes this by auto-converting shoutouts into tracked approval requests for rewards, promotions, or development opportunities.

Why This Integration Works

360Score.me collects raw sentiment. ApproveThis applies decision logic. Combined via Zapier, they enable:

1. Recognition That Drives Results

HR teams at a 500-employee manufacturer reduced reward processing time from 14 days to 48 hours by auto-routing shoutouts to department heads for budget approval. ApproveThis' calculated fields automatically checked remaining team bonus pools before escalation.

2. Bias-Resistant Promotions

A tech startup links 360Score.me engagement scores to promotion approvals. Their 4-stage workflow in ApproveThis requires:

  1. Peer shoutout validation
  2. Skill gap analysis from survey data
  3. Compensation committee review
This eliminated 92% of promotion-related disputes in Q1.

Implementation Made Simple

Connecting 360Score.me to ApproveThis takes 15 minutes via Zapier:

Step 1: Trigger from Recognition

Set 360Score.me's "New Shoutout" as the Zap trigger. Map key fields:

  • Recognized employee
  • Feedback category (e.g., teamwork, innovation)
  • Shoutout sentiment score

Step 2: Action in ApproveThis

Use the "Create Request" action to:

  • Auto-assign approvers based on recognition type
  • Attach survey metadata for context
  • Set escalation rules if no response in 72h

Pro Tip: Use ApproveThis' calculated fields to:

  • Flag shoutouts needing manager follow-up
  • Auto-approve low-value recognitions under $50

Cross-Functional Impact

For HR Teams

Linking 360Score.me data to ApproveThis workflows allows:

  • Auto-approving 80% of routine recognitions
  • Routing high-value rewards to finance
  • Tracking recognition ROI via approval analytics

For Finance Departments

ApproveThis thresholds prevent budget overruns by:

  • Requiring CFO sign-off on awards >$5,000
  • Syncing approved amounts to payroll systems
  • Generating audit trails for all recognitions

For Department Heads

Real-time dashboards show:

  • Pending recognitions needing review
  • Team morale trends from 360Score.me
  • Approval bottlenecks by manager

Advanced Configuration Options

Multi-Stage Escalations

A healthcare provider routes peer recognitions through:

  1. Immediate manager approval
  2. HR compliance check
  3. Auto-posting to internal #wins channel
All handled through conditional ApproveThis workflows.

External Validations

Client-facing teams use 360Score.me's NPS surveys to trigger:

  • Contract renewal approvals
  • Success manager reassignments
  • Escalation to executive sponsors
External clients approve directly via email - no ApproveThis license needed.

1. Map Your Recognition Flow

Identify which 360Score.me events should trigger approvals. Common starting points:

  • Department-specific approval groups
  • Monetary thresholds matching your policies
  • Auto-reminders for slow responders

3. Test with Real Data

  • Zapier field mappings
  • Approval assignment accuracy
  • Escalation timing
