Invoice approval

Invoices sit in someone’s inbox, and the only status update is a text that says “did you approve that?”

The preview reads a sample invoice, routes it by amount, and waits for an approve or reject decision. The log and queue stay inside this browser.

Simulation only. Buttons on this page do not send email, create records, or change QuickBooks, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, or any other system.

What a typical implementation includes

Automation Starter · $2,500

What a typical implementation includes

The live demo described about two hours a week of routing work. That figure is illustrative, not a measured client result.

  • A trigger for invoices that arrive with an attachment
  • Amount thresholds you define
  • An approver notice with approve and reject
  • A reminder if nobody responds
  • An audit log and a payment queue your bookkeeper can use
  • Documentation and a 30-day adjustment window

Quoted separately: Auto-posting to QuickBooks, Xero, or another accounting system. The queue in this preview is the approved list a person still processes.

Scoped add-on

Integrations that cost extra

Direct connections are quoted after we see the system. An export or a spreadsheet is not the same thing as a native integration.

  • Create a bill in accounting software after approval
  • Pull vendor, amount, and due date from the PDF
  • Hold possible duplicate vendors
  • Approve inside Teams
  • A vendor form instead of email
  • A month-end timing report
