ApproveThis manages your Humi Integration approvals.

When HR Meets Approval Automation

Let’s be real – nobody got into HR because they love chasing down signatures. Humi handles payroll, time-off requests, and employee data like a pro. ApproveThis slaps structure on your approval chaos. Together? They turn "Hey, did you approve that?" into "Everything’s handled" without the passive-aggressive Slack reminders.

We’re talking real-time tracking synced with your HRIS, automated escalations when Bob from Accounting ignores your emails (again), and approval logic that actually understands your company hierarchy. No more spreadsheet roulette.

Where This Combo Hits Different

Humi’s the brain, ApproveThis is the bouncer. Here’s why mid-sized companies care:

1. HR Doesn’t Play Guess-the-Approver Anymore

New hire needs a laptop? Instead of Humi → email → Slack → carrier pigeon, set up a Zap that:

• Triggers when Humi adds a new employee
• Auto-routes to IT (equipment), Facilities (desk assignment), and Legal (NDA) via ApproveThis
• Blocks onboarding until all boxes are checked

Real Example: A 200-person tech firm cut their onboarding prep time from 3 days to 4 hours. IT now knows about new hires before the welcome swag arrives.

2. Terminations That Don’t Haunt You

Delete an employee in Humi? That should automatically:

• Require C-suite approval if it’s a leadership role
• Notify IT to disable accounts
• Flag payroll for final settlement via ApproveThis’ calculated fields

Cold Hard Truth: A manufacturing company caught 3 accidental terminations last quarter because their VP ops actually has to click “approve” now.

3. PTO Requests That Don’t Wreck Projects

Someone requests vacation in Humi? Zapier can:

• Check ApproveThis against project deadlines
• Auto-approve if coverage exists
• Escalate to department heads if 3+ people are out

Not-So-Hypothetical: A marketing agency uses approval thresholds to block summer PTO during client launches. Morale improved because the rules are clear and automatic.

Setup That Won’t Make You Hate Tech

Connect Humi to ApproveThis in Zapier (takes 8 minutes, we timed it):

1. In Zapier, choose Humi as trigger app
2. Pick your event (new employee, termination, etc.)
3. Select ApproveThis as action app
4. Map Humi data to ApproveThis fields
5. Test with live data (we dare you)

Pro Tip: Use ApproveThis’ calculated fields to auto-approve PTO under 2 days or escalate high-value terminations. Set up vacation delegation so approvals don’t die when managers are OOO.

Department-Specific Wins

For HR Teams:

New hires get equipment approved before day one. Offboarding checklists actually complete. Your team stops being the approval police.

For Finance:

ApproveThis’ thresholds auto-approve small expenses but require CFO eyes on big spends. All synced with Humi’s payroll data.

For IT:

Auto-revoke system access when Humi terminations get final approval. No more ghost accounts.

For Legal:

NDA approvals get routed before contracts show up in Humi. Because apparently, people still forget this.

The Unsexy Stuff You’ll Actually Love

Approval Groups: Make department heads approve their own team’s PTO. Let them be the bad cop for once.

Email Approvals: External vendors can approve invoices without Humi logins. Clients love not jumping through hoops.

Audit Trails: When compliance asks who approved Karen’s 6-month sabbatical, you’ve got receipts.

Why This Isn’t Just Another Integration

Humi knows your people. ApproveThis knows your processes. Together, they enforce policies without the bureaucracy. Example: A 500-employee retailer links Humi clock-ins to ApproveThis overtime approvals. Managers get automatic flags when someone hits 38 hours – approve extra hours or send them home. Payroll errors dropped 22%.

Bonus: Approvers only need ApproveThis access. Your external payroll provider doesn’t need Humi licenses to greenlight invoices.

FAQs for the Skeptics

“We already use Humi approvals.”
Cool. Now add conditional logic, delegation, and cross-department handoffs. Basic approvals are like a bicycle – this is a cargo e-bike.

“Our teams hate new tools.”
ApproveThis lives in email and Slack. If your team can delete a spam message, they can use this.

“What if Zapier breaks?”
You get 2,000 free Zapier tasks/month. If you’re hitting that limit with HR approvals, congrats – you’re enterprise-scale now.

Next Steps (Besides Pretending You’ll Build This In-House)

Book a 15-minute demo to see how a 1,200-person logistics company cut approval delays by 80%. Or just start a free trial and connect Humi yourself. We’ve seen both approaches work.

P.S. If you’re still managing approvals through Humi comments and hope, we can’t be friends. But we can fix your process.
