- **Complete visibility into approval status**: Track approvals in real time, identify bottlenecks, and see the full approval and rejection history in reports and dashboards.
- **Automated workflows**: Eliminate manual tasks with automated matrix approvals and smart triggers, for accuracy and compliance at speed.
- **Improved compliance and risk management**: Automate legal approvals and compliance checks so every sign-off is secured before a deal is finalized.
- **Seamless integration with Salesforce**: Works natively with any Salesforce-based object model, keeping data consistent and minimizing disruption.
- **Standalone or integrated into Nue**: Deploy Approvals Pro on its own, or integrated with Nue’s CPQ and billing for enhanced efficiency.

Approval status

## Every approver, every step, in one place

Submit, track, approve, reassign and recall from the record. Approvers clear their queue in bulk, and every decision is logged.

Agentic approvals

## Approvals that keep up with AI agents

When Nue AI creates or changes a deal, the deal still goes through your approval paths. Ask where it stands and the agent answers from Approvals Pro itself: every path, every step, every approver.

- **Same rules for every change**: Renewals, amendments and discounts an agent creates run through the same parallel paths, matrix rules and delegation as a rep’s.
- **Live status in the conversation**: See which steps are approved, reassigned or revoked, who decided and when, without leaving the chat.
- **Justification travels with the request**: The reason for the deal is on the approval itself, so approvers and auditors see the same story.

## Hear from our users

- “Our approval strategy is complex and historically solutioned with heavy code and configuration. We implemented Approvals Pro in a few months and took all of the custom code out of our CRM and built it through declarative tools in Approvals Pro.” Drew Holman Executive Director of Enterprise Applications, Black Duck
- “The standard Salesforce approvals were not sufficient for our complex B2B approval processes, so we looked for an affordable alternative. Approvals Pro improved the transparency of our process: approvers have an extra level of insight during the approval process.” Laurens Ubert Vodafone
- “Throughout the whole setup process, we had excellent customer service. The response times have been excellent. The product, once integrated, has sped up our approval process greatly, and has saved a lot of time and headaches.” Theresa Requate Financial Analyst, TELUS Business

## Frequently asked questions

### What is Approvals Pro, and how does it work?

Approvals Pro is an advanced workflow automation tool that streamlines and accelerates approval processes in Salesforce. It can be used standalone with your existing systems, or as an integrated part of Nue’s revenue lifecycle management platform.

### How does Approvals Pro integrate with my existing tools?

Approvals Pro is 100% Salesforce-native and works with any Salesforce-based object model. It integrates with ERP and finance systems, and an API allows custom integrations, so it fits your existing workflow without disrupting operations.

### Which Salesforce objects can Approvals Pro approve?

Any of them. Approvals Pro runs on any standard or custom object in Salesforce, not only quotes and opportunities: contracts, orders, credit memos, refunds, price book changes and objects your org built, all on the same approval engine, rules and audit trail.

### Can Approvals Pro approve changes made by AI agents or other applications?

Yes. Approvals Pro governs the record, not the screen it was edited in, so the same approval rules apply whether a change comes from a rep, from an agentic transaction such as a renewal or amendment created by Nue AI, from Nue itself, or from another application or integration writing to Salesforce. Automated changes get the same approvals, delegation and audit trail as manual ones.

### Can Approvals Pro be customized for different approval workflows?

Yes. Set up multi-step approval processes, define user roles and permissions, and create conditional logic to automate decisions. Configure parallel and matrix approvals, and run multiple approval processes on the same record at once, from one-step approvals to complex, multi-tiered workflows.

### How does Approvals Pro enhance compliance and security?

Approvals Pro keeps a transparent audit trail of every approval, including timestamps, decision-makers and supporting documents. It enforces role-based access control (RBAC) and works with single sign-on (SSO) and multi-factor authentication (MFA).

### What is Nue?

Nue is an end-to-end revenue lifecycle platform that replaces legacy CPQ and billing systems, so B2B companies can price, quote, sell, bill and recognize revenue across every channel with greater speed, flexibility and accuracy.
