Why This Integration Doesn’t Suck
Let’s cut through the noise: approvals suck when they’re manual. Especially when you’re managing teams across Sengii Community – creating groups, onboarding users, updating permissions. Every delay costs money. Every missed approval risks compliance issues. But here’s the thing – ApproveThis and Sengii Community together turn approval bottlenecks into autopilot mode. No more chasing down signatures in Slack. No more spreadsheet trackers that everyone forgets to update.
We’re talking about connecting your collaboration hub (Sengii) with an approval engine (ApproveThis) through Zapier. The result? Requests get handled before your coffee gets cold. Teams stay aligned without endless meetings. And approvers? They don’t even need to log into Sengii – just click ‘approve’ in their email.
Three Ways This Combo Makes You Look Like a Wizard
1. Group Changes That Don’t Require a Committee Meeting
Scenario: Your IT team creates a new Sengii group for project contractors. Normally, this would trigger three approval emails, two Slack reminders, and one passive-aggressive Teams message. With the integration:
- Sengii detects the new/modified group
- ApproveThis auto-routes it to the right approvers based on spend, department, or project type
- Approvers get an email with context – no login required
Real-world win: A healthcare company reduced group setup time from 48 hours to 15 minutes by auto-escalating high-risk access requests to compliance officers.
2. User Onboarding That Doesn’t Make HR Want to Quit
New hire approvals are the Bermuda Triangle of HR. With this setup:
- ApproveThis triggers Sengii user creation after getting manager sign-off
- Auto-populates groups based on approval responses (“Department: Engineering → Add to DevOps group”)
- Uses calculated fields to enforce policy (e.g., “If contract value >$50k, require CFO approval”)
Pro tip: Add approval thresholds to auto-approve standard contractors while flagging executive hires for extra scrutiny.
3. Audit Trails That Won’t Give Your Compliance Team Nightmares
When an approval completes in ApproveThis, Sengii groups update automatically. No more:
• “Wait, was this change approved?”
• Spreadsheet version control issues
• Permission gaps during audits
A manufacturing client cut audit prep time by 70% by linking approval decisions directly to group update logs in Sengii.
Setup That Won’t Require Calling Your IT Guy
1. Connect the apps in Zapier – ApproveThis + Sengii Community
2. Pick your trigger: New/modified Sengii group → Create approval request
3. Add smart filters (e.g., only route groups with “Budget Over $10k” in the name)
4. Map approval fields (Sengii group details → ApproveThis request form)
5. Set escalation rules (e.g., auto-approve after 24 hours if no response)
Total setup time: 12 minutes if you’re slow at clicking.
Why This Isn’t Just Another Zap
ApproveThis brings muscle that basic approval apps don’t:
Approval groups → Require consensus from the whole finance team or sequential approvals from regional managers
Vacation coverage → Auto-reassign approvals when Karen from Legal is OOO
Real-time dashboards → See which Sengii changes are stuck in limbo (and who to gently nudge)
Bonus: External clients can approve Sengii changes without needing a seat license. They get an email, click a button, done. No “How do I log into this thing?!” support tickets.
Who Actually Benefits (Besides Your Sanity)
HR Teams
Auto-approve standard contractor access while routing full-time hires through background check approvals. Sengii groups update automatically based on employment type.
IT & Security
Require dual approval for high-risk group permissions. Auto-deny requests after 48 hours if no response – no more stale access rights.
Finance Departments
Link budget approvals to Sengii group creations. If a marketing team requests a “Q4 Campaign” group, require proof of PO before allowing member adds.
The Part Where We Tell You What to Do Next
If you’re still manually approving Sengii changes:
a) Your team hates you a little
b) You’re wasting about 7 hours/week on avoidable busywork
Fix it in 15 minutes:
→ Get ApproveThis
→ Book a live demo (we’ll show you the Sengii integration specifically)
No Zenefits-level pricing games. No multi-year contracts. Just approvals that work before your next standup ends.
