Quick answer

What is workflow automation and approval software?

Workflow and approval software turns request-and-approve processes such as purchase, expense, leave and onboarding into tracked digital flows with rules, deadlines, escalations and an audit trail. Stack18 builds it custom or on its business modules, and integrates with ERP, HRMS and accounts.

FAQ

Workflow and Approval Software questions.

Ask us anything
Which processes should we automate first?

Usually high-volume approvals such as purchase and expense. We help prioritise in discovery.

Can approvers act from their phone?

Yes. Approvals work on mobile and through WhatsApp notifications where suitable.

Is it custom or ready-made?

Either. Business OS covers common flows, and we build custom ones for unique processes.

Can it integrate with Tally?

Yes. Approved items can post to accounts.

Does it track who approved what?

Yes. Every action is logged with time and user.
