Use Case

Site managers know what’s waiting, without ringing finance.

Budget holders ask in chat which invoices need them, and get the link to approve them straight back.

The problem

What breaks today.

Approvers out on site lose track of what’s waiting. Finance spends the week chasing, and month-end slips.

Sound familiar? Here’s what changes.

How Atlantas handles it

What changes.

Atlantas answers from the live approval queue: what’s waiting, how old it is and why it needs them. One link takes them to approve.

  1. Checks who is asking against your approval matrix.
  2. Lists the invoices waiting for them, oldest first, with amounts.
  3. Explains any query or hold in plain English.
  4. Sends the approval link. Nothing is approved on their behalf.

Hi, it’s Sam at the Leeds site. Is anything waiting on me?

Hi Sam. I can see you’re the approver for Leeds. Three invoices are waiting for you, the oldest from 3 September.

Which ones?

Linen came in fine. Can I just approve them?
