When Project Management Meets Approval Muscle

Let’s get real – renewable energy companies don’t have time for approval bottlenecks. Between solar feasibility studies, HVAC proposals, and phase changes in complex installations, your team needs decisions to happen now, not after three follow-up emails and a carrier pigeon.

That’s where ApproveThis and Eturnity come in. Eturnity handles the heavy lifting of project calculations and documentation. ApproveThis slaps a rocket on your approval processes. Together through Zapier, they turn what used to be multi-day approval marathons into a 10-minute coffee break.

Why This Combo Works (When Others Just Annoy)

Most approval tools treat every request like a generic to-do item. ApproveThis doesn’t play that game. When connected to Eturnity’s project data via Zapier, you get approvals that actually understand the context:

  • Auto-escalate high-value solar proposals based on system size thresholds
  • Route HVAC quotes to regional managers based on project location

Meanwhile, Eturnity keeps doing what it does best – crunching energy numbers, generating client-ready docs, and tracking project phases. The integration means approvals become a natural extension of your existing workflow, not some separate app people forget to check.

Real-World Use Cases That Actually Matter

1. Killing Quote Approval Delays

Picture this: Your sales team just pumped out a €250k solar array proposal in Eturnity. Normally, it sits in someone’s inbox for two days while the customer gets cold feet. With the integration:

Eturnity triggers an ApproveThis request the second the quote is generated. Your CFO gets an email they can approve from their phone during school pickup. Bonus: If the quote hits a predefined threshold (say €500k+), it auto-adds the CEO to the approval chain. No more “Oops, forgot to CC Sandra.”

2. Phase Changes Without the Meeting Hell

Renewable projects have more phases than a Marvel movie. When an Eturnity project moves from design to procurement, ApproveThis can:

  • Require sign-off from the engineering lead
  • Auto-attach the latest compliance docs
  • Ping the project manager if it’s been 4+ hours without a decision

We’ve seen HVAC contractors cut phase transition time by 60% using this setup. That’s actual billable hours saved, not just “efficiency gains” on a PowerPoint slide.

3. Calculator Requests That Don’t Fall Through Cracks

When a new solar calculator inquiry hits Eturnity, ApproveThis does the dirty work:

– Creates a task for sales to validate lead quality within 2 hours
– Sends reminders every 45 minutes until someone acts
– Auto-archives requests that get ignored (looking at you, Gary from BizDev)

For a Swiss heat pump installer we worked with, this reduced missed leads by 31% in Q1. Not too shabby.

Setup That Doesn’t Require a PhD

If you can make a sandwich, you can connect these apps:

  1. Log into Zapier (you do have Zapier access, right?)
  2. Choose Eturnity as your trigger app – pick events like “New Project Created” or “Document Generated”
  3. Connect ApproveThis as your action app – map relevant project data to approval fields
  4. Set escalation rules and approval thresholds in ApproveThis (this is where the magic happens)

Pro tip: Use ApproveThis’ calculated fields to auto-flag projects that exceed budget or require special certifications. No more manual checks.

Who Actually Benefits From This?

Sales Teams

Stop chasing approvals for every damn quote. When ApproveThis auto-routes based on deal size, your closers can focus on selling, not inbox refreshing.

Project Managers

Phase changes get approved before the team finishes their standup. Plus, vacation delegation means no more “Sorry, I was at a wind farm in Norway” excuses.

Finance Departments

Real-time tracking of who approved what purchase order. Audit trails that don’t require FBI-level investigation skills.

External Partners

Here’s the kicker: Approvers from client companies or subcontractors don’t need Eturnity licenses. They get clean email approvals with zero app login required. Saves you $$$ on seat licenses.

Features You’ll Actually Use (No Bloatware Here)

While other approval tools try to dazzle you with 100+ features, here’s what matters when connected to Eturnity:

Email approvals: Because nobody wants another app notification.
Threshold auto-approvals: Let small purchases sail through without committee meetings.
Approval groups: Make the engineering team vote on technical specs – majority rules.
Real-time dashboards: See which solar proposals are stuck in limbo right now.

Let’s Get This Live Before Lunch

If you’re still manually approving Eturnity projects, you’re leaving money on the table. And not just loose change – we’re talking €10k+ monthly in stalled projects and missed deadlines.

ApproveThis starts at €29/user/month. Eturnity does the heavy project lifting. Zapier connects them in 15 minutes. Your team stops drowning in approval emails tomorrow.

Book a 20-minute demo and we’ll show you how a German solar company cut approval times by 73% using this exact setup. Or just start a free trial – we won’t make you talk to sales unless you want to.
