Workflow Automation
Configurable, hierarchy-aware approval chains
Define ordered approval steps by job title for Promotions, Expenses and Recruitment — the platform then resolves the actual approver dynamically by walking up each requester's real management chain, so approval routes always reflect your current org structure.
