How to Stop Chasing Approvals by Email

Email approvals work at first, then slowly turn into a mess. Messages get missed, managers forget to reply and nobody has a clean record of what happened.

With Power Automate, staff can submit a request through a form or Power App. The right manager gets a Teams or Outlook approval. The decision is stored automatically.

Common approval workflows

  • Purchases
  • Holiday requests
  • Overtime
  • Quotes
  • Expenses
  • Policy sign-off

The business benefit is simple: fewer missed messages, better visibility and a proper audit trail.
