ApproveThis manages your iMIS (iAppConnector) Integration approvals.

When Bureaucracy Meets Automation

Let's face it - associations and non-profits drown in approval processes. Membership renewals, event registrations, donor vetting... it's like playing paperwork whack-a-mole. Enter ApproveThis and iMIS. One's your approval ninja, the other your membership maestro. Together? They're the dynamic duo your overworked team actually needs.

Why This Combo Works

iMIS tracks your members like a pro but leaves approvals hanging. ApproveThis automates decisions but doesn't know your members. Zapier stitches them together so:

• New iMIS contacts trigger approval workflows automatically
• Event approvals in ApproveThis update iMIS registrations

The kicker? Approvers don't need iMIS logins. Perfect for board members who still fax things.

Three Ways This Saves Your Sanity

1. Event Registration That Doesn't Suck

Picture this: Your education director approves a conference request in ApproveThis. Zapier instantly adds them to the iMIS event roster. No spreadsheets. No "Did you get my email?"

Real-world win: The National Dental Hygienists Association cut event setup time by 40% using this exact flow. Their volunteer coordinators now actually take lunch breaks.

2. Member Vetting Without the Headaches

New iMIS contact added? ApproveThis automatically pings the compliance team. They review right from email - no app login needed. Bonus: If someone's OOO, approvals reroute automatically.

Pro tip: Set approval thresholds. Under $500? Auto-approve. Over? Escalate to the exec board. Suddenly, your finance team stops sending you death stares.

3. Audit Trails That Actually Make Sense

Every IQA result in iMIS kicks off an ApproveThis workflow. Approvals get timestamped, commented, and stored with the original data. Next audit? You'll smirk when the inspector asks for documentation.

Setting This Up Without Losing Your Mind

Three steps even your least techy board member could handle:

1. Connect ApproveThis and iMIS through Zapier (takes 4 minutes)
2. Pick your trigger: New iMIS contact? Event registration? IQA result?
3. Map the fields once. Done.

Seriously - we timed it. The complex membership approval flow takes 11 minutes to build. Less time than your last Zoom setup disaster.

Who Benefits (Besides Your Sanity)

Membership Teams

Stop babysitting renewal approvals. Set conditional rules: Lifetime members auto-approve, new applicants route to committee. Real-time dashboards show bottlenecks before they blow up.

Event Planners

Approve VIP attendees in ApproveThis, see them in iMIS instantly. Canceled approval? Automatically frees up the spot. No more overbooking clusterfudges.

Compliance Officers

New donor in iMIS? Approval workflow starts before you finish your coffee. Calculated fields auto-flag high-risk profiles. Audit trail builds itself.

The Nuts & Bolts You Care About

ApproveThis plays nice with iMIS through Zapier triggers:

• From iMIS: New contacts, event changes, IQA updates
• From ApproveThis: Approval decisions, status changes, new requests

Use vacation delegation so approvals don't stall when Karen from accounting is snorkeling in Belize. Set email reminders that actually work (we promise).

Why This Isn't Just Another Integration

Other tools make you choose: Powerful but complex, or simple but useless. This combo gives iMIS users approval superpowers without:

• Training hassles (approvers use email)
• Duplicate data entry (Zapier handles the heavy lifting)
• License fees for occasional users (looking at you, Salesforce)

The California Nurses Association onboarded 200+ chapter leads in a week. Zero IT tickets. Mic drop.
