ApprovalMax is a cloud approval software that adds multi-step authorization workflows to accounting and ERP tools like Xero, QuickBooks, and NetSuite. It routes purchase orders, bills, and expense claims to the right approvers, enforces spending limits, and keeps an approval log for audit.
ApprovalMax answers a governance question: who is allowed to approve what, and in what order. It structures the human sign-off, but it does not check whether the invoice itself is correct. A bill can pass every approval step and still carry a wrong price, a duplicate line, or a quantity that was never delivered.
That gap is where automated control belongs. Before a document reaches an approver, an agent can reconcile the supplier invoice against the purchase order and delivery note and verify each line against contract terms. Phacet runs these checks first, so approvers validate clean documents instead of catching errors by eye.
With Phacet, the supplier billing control agent flags wrong prices and overcharges before payment, and exposes its reasoning on every line through a native audit trail. ApprovalMax then handles the formal authorization on documents that are already verified.
The two layers are complementary: ApprovalMax governs the approval chain, Phacet secures the data feeding it. Used together, the approval step stops being a rubber stamp and becomes a decision backed by control.
