Features
Invoice Approval Built for Hospitality Workflows
Multi-Level Approval
Multi-Level Approval Workflows
Create approval workflows with one to four approval levels based on operational and financial requirements. Route invoices through the proper approval chain before payment or accounting export.
Approval Chains
Flexible Approval Chains
Assign multiple users to the same approval level so invoices keep moving even when approvers are unavailable. Any authorized user can approve and move the invoice to the next step.
Communication
Send Back & Communication Tools
Approvers can send invoices back for clarification, correction, or review while maintaining communication through approval notes and email notifications.
Reporting
Pending Approval Visibility
Track invoices that have not been approved through user reports, management reports, dashboards, and automated notifications.
Department Control
Department-Level Control
Different departments can maintain separate approval workflows while management maintains visibility across the entire organization.

Improve Accountability
Know exactly who reviewed, approved, rejected, or modified an invoice at every stage.
