ApproveThis manages your BunnyDoc Integration approvals.

When Approvals Meet E-Signatures: No More Chasing Signatures

Let's be real: nothing kills momentum like waiting for Karen in Legal to sign off on a contract that's been sitting in her inbox for two weeks. Or chasing down a client's e-signature while your project timeline burns. This is where ApproveThis and BunnyDoc become your secret weapon against approval purgatory.

ApproveThis handles the decision-making circus – routing contracts to the right people, escalating urgent requests, and keeping everyone accountable. BunnyDoc? It's your digital pen and paper, making signatures happen with less friction than a PDF attachment. Together, they turn "where are we on that contract?" into "it's already done."

Why This Combo Works for Grown-Up Companies

If your company's between 50-5,000 employees, you've outgrown email chains but aren't ready for enterprise bloatware. This integration works because:

• No new logins for approvers: External clients can approve/reject via email without needing BunnyDoc access
• Calculated fields prevent dumb mistakes: Auto-calculate contract totals or discount thresholds before sending for signatures

Example: A 200-person manufacturing company uses this combo to approve vendor contracts. Their procurement team creates requests in ApproveThis that auto-send via BunnyDoc once approved. Suppliers sign digitally, and the contract gets filed in their ERP – no paper, no lost emails.

Two Killer Use Cases (That Actually Work)

1. Contracts That Don't Ghost You

The problem: Sales sends a proposal, Legal approves it, but the client takes 10 days to sign. Deals stall.

The fix: When Legal approves the final contract in ApproveThis, Zapier triggers BunnyDoc to send the e-signature request. Sales gets real-time tracking in both systems. If the client doesn't sign in 48hrs? ApproveThis auto-sends reminders.

Real-world impact: A SaaS company reduced their average deal close time from 14 days to 9 by eliminating signature limbo.

2. Stop Being HR's Document Mule

The problem: New hire paperwork requires 4 internal approvals before going to the candidate. It's a black hole.

The fix: HR initiates an approval chain in ApproveThis. Once fully approved, Zapier pushes the offer letter to BunnyDoc for the candidate's e-signature. All signed docs auto-save to the HRIS.

Bonus: Vacation delegation ensures approvals don't get stuck if a manager's OOO during hiring season.

Setup That Doesn't Require an IT Degree

1. Create a Zapier account (free tier works)
2. Connect ApproveThis and BunnyDoc
3. Pick your trigger: "New signed document" in BunnyDoc → "Create approval request" in ApproveThis
OR
"New request" in ApproveThis → "Send signature request" in BunnyDoc
4. Map critical fields (contract value, approver emails, deadlines)
5. Test with a low-stakes document (like office snack policy updates)

Pro tip: Use ApproveThis' calculated fields to auto-flag contracts over $50K for extra scrutiny before they hit BunnyDoc.

Who Actually Benefits from This?

Procurement Teams

Scenario: A $5M construction firm approves 30+ vendor contracts weekly. Their old process? Email a PDF, wait for replies, manually track in spreadsheets. Now, contracts route to PM > Finance > Legal in ApproveThis. Once approved, BunnyDoc sends for vendor signatures. Approval thresholds auto-approve small purchases under $2K.

Sales Ops

Scenario: A 800-employee SaaS company loses deals to slow legal reviews. Custom workflows now send contracts to regional sales directors first. If approved, it goes to Legal via BunnyDoc with pre-filled terms. Conditional logic skips unnecessary approvals for renewals under $100K.

HR & Legal

Scenario: A healthcare provider with 2,000 staff automates compliance training acknowledgments. ApproveThis routes docs to department heads, then BunnyDoc collects employee e-signatures. Vacation delegation covers manager PTO so onboarding never stalls.

Features You'll Actually Use

Approval thresholds: Auto-approve NDAs under $0 value or service contracts under $10K.
Real-time tracking: See if the client opened the BunnyDoc request or if it's stuck in approvals.
Email approvals: Let execs approve contracts from their phone without another app login.

The Bottom Line: Less Waiting, More Doing

This isn't about flashy tech – it's about fixing the approval bottlenecks that make teams resent each other. When ApproveThis handles the decision chain and BunnyDoc nails the execution, you get:

• Contracts signed 2-4x faster (we've seen it)
• Zero "I didn't get the email" excuses
• Audit trails that keep compliance off your back

It works because both tools stay in their lane. ApproveThis doesn't try to be a doc editor. BunnyDoc doesn't pretend to handle complex approvals. Together, they cover the full lifecycle without the bloat.
