Business value

With advanced approvals, you can create approval workflows that match your organization's structure and business processes. You don't need to use complex manual workarounds to access new premium features – they're available automatically.

Feature details

The main features of advanced approvals include:

  • Multi-stage approvals: Users set up complex approval processes with multiple stages. Each stage has its own set of stakeholders who make approval decisions. You can configure each stage separately to meet the specific needs of those stakeholders. This feature mirrors the real-world approval workflows of organizations.

  • Conditions/Conditional approvals: Users add conditions between stages to ensure flexible decision-making. Approvals are automatically approved, rejected, moved to another stage, or skipped based on whether specific conditions are met. This feature makes the approval process more adaptable and efficient.
