About This Automation

Pricing approval workflows require sales managers and finance teams to manually review, route, and approve discount requests via email. Delays, lost messages, and repeated follow-ups create bottlenecks that slow quote delivery and frustrate sales reps.

Automation routes requests to the correct approver based on deal size and discount rules, tracks approval status in real time, and escalates overdue decisions. Sales reps receive decisions within hours instead of days, and approvals are logged automatically.

Key features
Route pricing requests automatically based on discount amount and customer tier
Track approval status in real time and send reminders for pending decisions
Escalate requests that exceed approval thresholds to the right person
Log approval decisions and final pricing in your CRM automatically
Notify sales reps of approval outcomes and trigger quote generation
