Why Combine ApproveThis and CINCEL?

Businesses in Mexico and Latin America face unique challenges when managing legally binding documents. Between multi-signature requirements, notarization rules, and blockchain-based compliance, teams often struggle to balance speed with regulatory rigor. This is where integrating ApproveThis and CINCEL through Zapier creates a competitive advantage.

ApproveThis brings structure to approval workflows, while CINCEL ensures documents meet regional legal standards. Together, they eliminate manual handoffs between document preparation and stakeholder authorization. Finance teams get faster invoice approvals, legal departments maintain audit trails, and operations teams reduce procurement delays – all while keeping every signature and revision compliant with LATAM regulations.

How These Platforms Complement Each Other

CINCEL's strength lies in creating legally enforceable documents with features like blockchain timestamping and identity verification. However, obtaining internal or client approvals for these documents often creates bottlenecks. ApproveThis solves this by adding intelligent routing, conditional logic, and real-time tracking to CINCEL's document workflows.

Key synergies include:

  • Compliance Without Complexity: CINCEL handles legal requirements; ApproveThis ensures the right people review documents in the correct order
  • External Collaboration: Approvers only need ApproveThis access – no additional CINCEL licenses required for clients or partners

Real-World Use Cases

1. Automated Contract Approvals

When legal teams create NDAs or service agreements in CINCEL, ApproveThis can automatically:

  • Route documents to department heads based on contract value
  • Escalate high-risk clauses to compliance officers
  • Collect signatures only after all internal approvals

Example: A Mexican fintech startup reduced contract turnaround from 14 days to 72 hours by triggering approval workflows the moment CINCEL documents are finalized.

2. Procurement Process Automation

Combine CINCEL's purchase order templates with ApproveThis' conditional routing:

  • Auto-approve recurring orders under $5K using approval thresholds
  • Require CFO review for budget exceptions
  • Generate audit-ready documentation trails

Example: A manufacturing company eliminated $280K in unauthorized spending by requiring CINCEL purchase orders to complete ApproveThis workflows before vendor payment.

3. Cross-Departmental Collaboration

Marketing teams creating campaign contracts in CINCEL can:

  • Automatically route drafts to legal and finance
  • Use calculated fields to flag budget overages
  • Maintain version control through centralized tracking

Implementation Made Simple

Setting up the integration takes under 30 minutes through Zapier:

  1. Connect CINCEL and ApproveThis to your Zapier account
  2. Choose your trigger event (new document or approval request)
  3. Map document fields to approval criteria
  4. Test with a non-critical workflow

Pro Tip: Use ApproveThis' calculated fields to auto-populate CINCEL document metadata like effective dates or contract IDs.

Team-Specific Benefits

Legal & Compliance Teams

Reduce risk by ensuring no document leaves CINCEL without proper reviews. Vacation delegation prevents delays during holidays, while approval groups guarantee required stakeholders always participate.

Finance Departments

Connect CINCEL invoices to approval thresholds that auto-approve recurring payments under set amounts. Real-time dashboards provide instant visibility into cash flow impacts.

Operations Managers

Auto-generate CINCEL work orders once ApproveThis gives the green light. Approval chains ensure safety checks are completed before authorizing high-risk activities.

HR Professionals

Streamline offer letter approvals by routing CINCEL documents through compensation committees, then automatically sending signed versions to new hires.

Critical Features That Make It Work

ApproveThis features that enhance CINCEL workflows:

  • Approval Thresholds: Auto-approve routine documents to focus on exceptions
  • Conditional Routing: Send high-value contracts directly to executives
  • Mobile Approvals: Review and sign CINCEL documents from any device
