Reviews & Approvals

Overview

Understand how Reviews & Approvals works

Reviews & Approvals Overview

Reviews & Approvals lets you set up quality control workflows for your documents. When a document is processed, it can be automatically flagged for review by a team member based on rules you define (e.g. low confidence scores, missing fields, or specific values). The reviewer then approves or rejects the document before it's treated as final or sent to integrations.

Why use Reviews & Approvals?

  • Quality control: Catch mistakes before data goes to your accounting system or spreadsheets
  • Team collaboration: Assign documents to the right person for review
  • Automatic flagging: Set rules so only documents that need review are flagged (e.g. invoices over $10,000, or any document with low confidence)
  • Approval workflow: Ensure important documents are checked before export

How it works

  1. Set up review stages in Settings → Reviews & Approvals
  2. Define rules that flag documents (e.g. "Total Amount > 5000" or "Confidence < 80%")
  3. Assign reviewers to each stage (who can approve or reject)
  4. When a document is processed, if it matches your rules, it's automatically assigned to a reviewer
  5. The reviewer sees it in their "Assigned to Me" filter, reviews it, and approves or rejects it
  6. Approved documents can flow to integrations; rejected ones stay in review

Review stages

You can create multiple review stages (e.g. "Initial Review", "Manager Approval", "Final Check"). Each stage can have:

  • Rules that flag documents (all rules must match for a document to be flagged)
  • Reviewers who can approve or reject at that stage
  • Mandatory or conditional review (mandatory = every document goes through this stage; conditional = only if rules match)

When exports run

If a reviewer is assigned, exports wait until the document is approved. If no reviewer is assigned, exports run immediately after processing.
