When Form Meets Function
Let's be real – most companies treat approvals like a bad game of telephone. Someone fills out a form, it gets lost in someone's inbox, and three weeks later you're scrambling because nobody signed off on the budget. That's where ApproveThis and EasyFill.ai come in. We're talking about taking your form data and actually doing something useful with it, instead of letting it rot in spreadsheet purgatory.
EasyFill.ai handles the dirty work of collecting data through custom forms. ApproveThis takes that data and runs it through your actual business rules. Together, they turn "Hey, can someone approve this?" into a process that doesn't make everyone want to quit their job.
Why This Combo Actually Matters
Most approval tools just move the problem around. You go from paper forms to digital forms... that still sit in someone's inbox. The magic here is in the handoff. EasyFill.ai catches the data, ApproveThis forces it through your process like a juicer extracting every last drop of efficiency. We've seen companies using this combo cut approval times from weeks to hours. Not because they're working faster – because they're finally working smarter.
Real-World Uses That Don't Suck
HR Teams: New Hire Paperwork That Doesn't Embarrass You
Imagine every time HR creates a new onboarding form in EasyFill.ai, it automatically pings Legal for review via ApproveThis. No more "Oops, we accidentally asked for candidates' social media passwords." Use approval groups to route forms through Compliance, IT Security, and department heads – without any of them needing to log into EasyFill.
Finance Departments: Invoice Approvals That Don't Cause Night Sweats
Set up a form in EasyFill for vendor invoices. Every submission triggers an ApproveThis workflow that checks the amount against your thresholds. Under $1k? Auto-approve. Over $10k? Escalate to the CFO. Bonus: approvers get everything they need in one email – no digging through attachments.
Operations: Change Requests That Don't Break Everything
When field teams submit equipment change forms through EasyFill, ApproveThis can route based on location + risk level. High-risk modifications in the Chicago plant? Needs sign-off from both the local manager and corporate safety. Low-risk update in Austin? Just the site lead. All tracked in real time so you know exactly where things stand.
Setting This Up Without Losing Your Mind
If you can make toast, you can set this up:
- Create your form in EasyFill (protip: use their conditional fields to skip irrelevant questions)
- Open Zapier, make a new Zap
- Choose your EasyFill trigger (new form, submission, etc.)
- Connect to ApproveThis' "Create Request" action
- Map form fields to approval criteria (dollar amounts, departments, whatever matters)
Total setup time: Less than it takes to get through a typical approval meeting. Zapier handles the heavy lifting, so you don't need to be some tech wizard.
Features You'll Actually Use
This isn't about checking boxes – these are the tools that make the integration bulletproof:
- Approval Thresholds: Auto-approve small expenses, escalate big ones. Set it once and forget it.
- Vacation Delegation: John's on leave? Requests automatically reroute to Sue without missing a beat.
- Calculated Fields: Turn form responses into actionable data. Example: "Total contract value = Monthly fee x Term length" right in the approval request.
Who Actually Benefits Here?
For the Process Nerds (We Love You)
Create multi-step approvals where Legal reviews first, then Finance, then the C-suite. Add conditional logic so low-risk items skip layers. Track everything in real dashboards instead of playing detective.
For the People Who Hate Process
Approvers get clean, actionable emails – click approve/reject, done. No logins, no hunting for context. Even external clients can approve without getting access to your EasyFill account.
For the Budget Guardians
Every auto-approved request under your thresholds saves $47 in lost productivity (actual client average). Escalation rules prevent expensive oopsies. Audit trails make compliance checks take minutes, not days.
The Big Picture Stuff
This isn't just about moving faster. It's about:
No more broken telephone: Approvers see the actual form data, not some secondhand summary. Decisions get made on facts, not hunches.
Actual accountability: Know exactly who's sitting on requests. Set automatic reminders that nudge people without you playing bad cop.
Scale without the chaos: Add new departments, locations, products – your approval rules adapt instead of breaking down.
Let's Get Real About Limitations
This isn't magic fairy dust. If your approval processes are broken because of office politics, this won't fix that. But it will expose exactly where the bottlenecks are. Also, complex multi-department workflows might need some initial tuning – our support team actually knows their stuff if you get stuck.
Ready to Stop Being a Human Routing Bot?
If you're still manually shepherding form submissions through email chains, you're working too hard. The ApproveThis + EasyFill combo through Zapier is like giving your approval processes a spinal upgrade – suddenly everything stands upright and works like it should.
Best part? Approvers don't need another login. They just click approve/reject in their email. You get to look like a hero for fixing something everyone hates.
Book a 15-minute demo and we'll show you exactly how to set this up for your messiest approval process. Or start a free trial – takes about 3 minutes to connect to EasyFill and start automating approvals.
