Document Approval
Workflows That Actually Work

Most approval tools are built for enterprises with dedicated IT teams. Veluvanto gives you visual, multi-step approval workflows that anyone can set up in minutes — no coding, no consultants, no 90-day implementation project.

Visual Workflow Builder

Define approval chains step by step: who reviews, who approves, in what order. Drag steps, set conditions, and you're done. No flowchart degree required.

Sequential & Multi-Step Chains

Route documents through multiple approvers — accountant → manager → director. Each step only unlocks when the previous one is completed. Works across workspaces.

Approve or Reject with One Click

Approvers get a clear notification. Open the document, review it, and approve or reject — all inside the app. No email chains, no lost attachments, no chasing people down.

Deadline Tracking & Reminders

Set deadlines for each approval step. Veluvanto sends automatic reminders before a deadline passes and escalates overdue items. Nothing slips through.

Full Audit Trail

Every action is logged — who approved, who rejected, and when. Full history is visible in the document detail view for compliance and internal oversight.

No Enterprise Price Tag

Enterprise DMS tools like DocuWare or M-Files charge $300+/month just to get started. Veluvanto includes approval workflows on every plan — starting at €9/mo excl. VAT.

Frequently Asked Questions

How complex can approval workflows be?
You can create sequential multi-step chains with as many steps as you need. Each step can have a different approver, deadline, and conditions. Workflows can span across workspaces — for example, an invoice uploaded in the accounting workspace can be routed to a manager in the operations workspace.
Do approvers need a Veluvanto account?
Yes, approvers need to be members of your Veluvanto workspace. This ensures the audit trail is complete and every action is tied to a verified identity. You can invite team members on any plan — the free tier supports collaboration too.
Can I change a workflow after it's started?
You can modify workflow templates at any time. Active approval processes follow the workflow definition as it was when the document entered the flow — this ensures consistency and audit integrity.
How is this different from approval features in Kissflow or Nintex?
Kissflow starts at $1,500/month and Nintex at $910/month — both are enterprise BPM platforms where document approval is one feature among many. Veluvanto is a document management system with built-in approval workflows. If your primary need is approving documents (invoices, contracts, purchase orders), you don't need a full BPM suite.
Where can I see the approval history?
Every approval action — approve or reject — is logged with timestamp and user identity. The complete history is visible in the document detail view.
