When Truckloads of Paperwork Meet Approval Chaos
Let's cut through the diesel fumes: logistics teams using Super Dispatch already know how to move cars faster than a teenager with their first sports car. But when every shipment, payment, and pickup requires 3 emails, 2 Slack pings, and a carrier threatening to quit over unpaid invoices? That's where even the best operations hit potholes.
ApproveThis plugs directly into Super Dispatch through Zapier to turn approval bottlenecks into automated highways. We're talking about eliminating the "Hey, did you approve that $5k carrier payment?" conversations that currently waste 12 hours a week. For teams moving 500+ vehicles monthly, that's like getting back an entire dispatcher.
Why This Combo Works Like a Well-Tuned Engine
Super Dispatch handles the heavy lifting of logistics coordination, while ApproveThis becomes your compliance co-pilot. Together, they ensure:
- Zero missed approvals on carrier payments (your CFO stops getting gray hairs)
- Automatic documentation trails for every order change (auditors become slightly less terrifying)
Key differentiator? ApproveThis doesn't require your external carriers or warehouse contacts to learn new software. They approve/reject via email while you maintain full control over thresholds and escalation rules. No extra Super Dispatch licenses needed for approvers - just seatbelts for your process.
Real-World Use Cases That Actually Move Needles
1. Carrier Payments That Don't Require Begging
The Problem: Your team processes 87 carrier payments weekly through Super Dispatch. Accounts payable needs documentation, department heads want spending oversight, and carriers keep calling about late fees.
The Fix: Auto-create ApproveThis requests for every Super Dispatch payment completion. Route to AP, then logistics manager, with calculated fields showing budget impact. Approvers get email links - click, review, approve. Denied? Finance gets auto-alert to hold payment.
Who Wins: Auto brokers handling cross-country shipments cut payment processing time from 48 hours to 90 minutes. Bonus: ApproveThis' thresholds auto-approve sub-$1k payments to trusted carriers.
2. Order Approvals That Actually Prevent "Who Authorized This?!"
The Problem: New orders in Super Dispatch sometimes bypass volume caps or preferred carrier assignments. Sales reps go rogue, operations scrambles to fulfill unrealistic promises.
The Fix: Trigger approval workflows the second a Super Dispatch order is created. Sales manager approves pricing terms, logistics confirms carrier availability. Sequential approvals ensure checks happen in order. Vacation delegation covers absent approvers.
Who Wins: Regional shippers reduced order fulfillment errors by 62% in Q1 by requiring pre-approvals for non-contract carriers.
3. Pickup Confirmations That Don't Rely on Carrier Texts
The Problem: Drivers mark orders as "picked up" in Super Dispatch, but your team spends hours verifying with dealerships. Sometimes vehicles get "lost" between lots.
The Fix: Auto-start ApproveThis workflows when Super Dispatch marks an order picked up. Route to dealership manager for confirmation via email. Approved? Update inventory systems. Denied? Trigger carrier investigation.
Who Wins: A Midwest auto auction house eliminated 90% of pickup disputes by requiring lot manager approvals before processing payments.
Setting This Up Without an IT Degree
Connect ApproveThis + Super Dispatch in 20 minutes flat:
- Create Zapier account (if you somehow don't have one)
- Choose Super Dispatch trigger (new order, payment completed, etc.)
- Set ApproveThis as action - map key fields like amount, carrier ID
- Test with a live order (start small - $500 local shipment)
Pro tip: Use ApproveThis' calculated fields to auto-flag orders exceeding mileage caps or preferred carrier rates. No coding - just "If X > Y, require CFO approval."
Department-Specific Wins (No Fluff)
Finance Teams
Stop playing detective with carrier invoices. ApproveThis logs every payment approval/rejection with timestamps and comments. Audit reports take 2 clicks instead of 2 days.
Logistics Managers
Set conditional rules: "If order requires refrigerated transport, auto-route to safety coordinator." Real-time dashboards show pending approvals by carrier type.
Sales Ops
Embed approval forms in Salesforce using ApproveThis' API. Approved Super Dispatch orders auto-sync back as Opportunities. Denied ones trigger pipeline cleanup.
Why This Isn't Just Another Integration
Most approval tools treat logistics teams like office workers. ApproveThis gets that 40% of your approvers are checking emails on truck stop Wi-Fi:
- Email approvals work offline - carrier approves via reply, system updates automatically
- Escalation rules alert backup approvers after 2 hours, not 2 days
- Mobile-first tracking lets managers approve loads while inspecting vehicles
Meanwhile, Super Dispatch keeps humming along - no workflow disruptions, just cleaner data flowing between systems.
Bottom Line for Teams Moving Metal
If your logistics ops involve more than 50 monthly approvals across Super Dispatch workflows, continuing manual processes is like hauling sports cars with a mule. ApproveThis through Zapier acts as the turbocharger you actually need:
- Reduce approval delays from days to hours
- Cut carrier payment errors by 30-60%
- Eliminate 14 hours/month of "Where's that approval?" follow-ups
Setup takes less time than your next fuel stop. Keep Super Dispatch for logistics muscle, add ApproveThis for approval reflexes.
Time to Ditch the Approval Clipboard
ApproveThis isn't another tool - it's your logistics team's approval autopilot. Start with a free trial (no credit card needed) or book a 12-minute demo showing Super Dispatch workflows. Either way, you'll stop losing invoices and carriers by next Tuesday.
