Digitize multi‑stage approvals, save time, and simplify processes

Approval workflows are part of everyday work in many organizations – often involving high manual effort, long waiting times, and unclear processes. With Microsoft Power Automate, you can create automated approval flows that provide transparency, save time, and reduce errors.
In this seminar, you will learn how to efficiently set up approvals with one or multiple approvers and fully automate complex approval procedures.

Our experienced trainers will show you:

• how to set up structured approval processes
• how decisions are documented automatically
• how to use variables, branches, and logic in flows
• how Outlook events are created automatically after approval
• how to integrate buttons in lists or libraries
• how to implement multi‑stage approvals (multi‑level flows)
• how to manage permissions and share flows with others

Your Benefits at a Glance
