When Paperwork Meets Progress

Let’s be real – nobody wakes up excited to chase down approvals. But here’s the thing: when your Flixcheck forms and checks have to wait on Karen from accounting or that client who’s always “out of office,” everything grinds to a halt. That’s where ApproveThis comes in. Not as another app to manage, but as the glue that connects Flixcheck’s digital workflows to the actual humans who need to sign off on stuff.

Think of it like giving Flixcheck a turbocharger. You keep using the forms and checks you’ve built, but now approvals happen in the background – automatically routed, tracked, and nudged until someone does their damn job. No more “I didn’t see the email” excuses.

Why This Combo Works for Grown-Up Businesses

If your company’s between 50 and 5k people, you’ve outgrown chasing approvals in Slack threads. But you’re not about to buy some clunky enterprise software either. Here’s the sweet spot:

  • Finance teams stop playing detective – every Flixcheck check ties directly to an approval audit trail.
  • Operations can finally enforce rules (like “anything over $5k needs CFO eyes”) without manual babysitting.
  • External clients approve stuff via email without needing a Flixcheck login (huge for agencies and consultants).

And because we’re using Zapier, there’s no IT project here. You connect the dots in an afternoon, not six months.

Real-World Uses That Don’t Suck

1. Auto-Create Approvals for New Flixcheck Checks

Scenario: Your sales team uses Flixcheck to process client onboarding forms. But every new client requires legal review before the checks get finalized.

The Fix: Zapier detects new Flixcheck checks and instantly routes them as approval requests in ApproveThis. Legal gets an email, clicks approve/deny, and Flixcheck auto-updates – no back-and-forth.

Who Cares: Law firms, agencies, anyone with compliance-heavy client onboarding. Cuts the “where are we on this?” meetings by… well, all of them.

2. Instant Checks When Approvals Happen

Scenario: Your procurement team approves a vendor contract in ApproveThis. But then someone has to manually create the Flixcheck check for payment terms.

The Fix: Approval in ApproveThis = Zapier triggers Flixcheck to generate the check. Zero manual data entry. Bonus: Set conditional rules so checks over $10k auto-add a second approver.

Who Cares: Manufacturing, healthcare, any industry where purchase orders can’t afford delays. Also stops accounts payable from hating you.

3. Denied? Automatically Log It and Move On

Scenario: A manager rejects an employee’s travel request in ApproveThis. But that denial needs to be recorded in Flixcheck for compliance.

The Fix: Zapier catches the “denied” status and updates Flixcheck immediately. No risk of forgotten follow-ups or unlogged rejections.

Who Cares: Public companies, education, anyone with strict audit requirements. Also keeps managers honest – no ghosting approval requests.

Features Your Team Will Actually Use

ApproveThis isn’t just about routing forms. These matter when paired with Flixcheck:

Approval Thresholds: Auto-approve Flixcheck checks under $500, but require VP sign-off above that. No more micromanaging small stuff.

Vacation Delegation: Approver OOO? Requests auto-reassign instead of rotting in their inbox. Critical for client-facing deadlines.

Calculated Fields: Automatically flag Flixcheck checks that exceed budget (e.g., “Total = Qty x Price, if over $X, escalate”). Math done for you.

Setup That Doesn’t Require a PhD

If you’ve used Zapier before, this is stupid simple:

  1. Pick your trigger: “New Check in Flixcheck” or “Approval Decision in ApproveThis”
  2. Map the fields: Connect Flixcheck data (vendor name, amount) to ApproveThis’s approval form.
  3. Add rules if needed: Like “only escalate checks over $5k” or “client approvals skip level 2 review.”
  4. Test with a real request: Because nobody trusts tech until it works once.

Pro tip: Start with one workflow (like client onboarding approvals) before scaling to others. Less overwhelming.

Why This Beats “Just Using Flixcheck”

Flixcheck’s great at digitizing forms. But approvals? That’s where things get messy. ApproveThis adds what’s missing:

For Finance: Every approved check in Flixcheck has a digital paper trail. Auditors stop breathing down your neck.

For Operations: Enforce approval rules without playing process cop. The system routes things correctly, every time.

For Clients/Vendors: They approve via email without needing Flixcheck logins. Fewer support tickets about “lost” links.

Bottom Line: Stop Approving, Start Doing

This isn’t about fancier software. It’s about eliminating the approval limbo that costs you deals, delays projects, and frustrates everyone involved. ApproveThis + Flixcheck via Zapier is the fix that doesn’t require upending your existing tools.
