What is an invoice approval workflow?
An invoice approval workflow is the path an invoice takes from arrival to cleared-to-pay: who reviews it, who signs off, and in what order. A good one routes each invoice to the right approver, records the decision, and does not force people into a system they never otherwise open.
Where it usually snags
The steps are capture, code, route, approve or reject, pay. The friction is almost always the approval step, when the approver is an owner or partner who lives in email, not the finance tool. So the invoice sits.
Keeping it out of everyone's way
InvoiceJet handles approvals by email. Send an invoice to an approver, they click approve or reject, no account needed, and the record updates. The invoice is already extracted and verified, so they decide on clean data instead of squinting at a PDF.
Common questions
Do approvers need a login?
No. Email approvals let anyone approve or reject from the message itself, so you are not provisioning seats for occasional sign-offs.
