Approvals that run on rules, not on email.
Know what is left in the budget before anyone approves.
Every line carries its quantity, price and VAT against a cost centre. The budget is checked when the request is raised, and the money is committed the moment it is approved.
Know what you own, who has it and when it is next due a service.
Tag, serial, warranty, condition, holder and location on one register. A service due inside two weeks raises its own task, and the next date moves on when it is recorded.
A leave balance that two approvals landing together cannot break.
A balance is a ledger of movements with dates, not a number someone edits. Your leave cycle is your own record: its anchor, its length and its days.
Move a card, and the record moves with it, under your name.
Tickets on a board whose columns are a field, so moving a card writes that one field and lands on your trail with who moved it.
Know which revision they accepted, and what the order is worth now.
A quote is revised until it is accepted and every version is kept. Acceptance creates the order that the job and its costs hang off.
Price a request against live stock, and route it by what it costs.
A request is priced from what is actually on hand, routed to the right approvers by value, and charged to the right budget once it is signed off. The storeroom is told the shortfall before anything is promised.
Catch a trial result that breaks a rule, the moment it is recorded.
Agricultural trials with seed drawn against the trial from a depot, and an incident raised the moment a result breaks a rule, not at the end of the season.
Know which file the client approved, and when.
Every upload is the next version. The client approves it or asks for changes through an emailed link, with no account, and the approval is pinned to the exact file they saw.
Book the plan the client approved, and bill what actually ran.
The client approves a plan PDF through a link. One booking order per media owner is made from the approved lines, and every invoice is checked against what was booked before the client is billed.
Most approval processes run on email and goodwill. Koldheim runs them on rules, and keeps the proof.

Three questions every approval process gets asked
If the answer lives in someone's inbox, the process is running you.
"Where is my request?"
Every stage is a page and every request shows who it is waiting on.
See every request02"Who is allowed to sign this?"
The threshold and the approvers are part of the process, not a policy PDF.
Rules that run themselves03"Why was this approved?"
Cost, approvers and reasons sit on a record that cannot be quietly edited.
Evidence by defaultFive things every product gives you
See every request
Know where everything is, and who it is waiting on.
Every stage of a process is its own page. Every person has a desk of decisions waiting on them. Counts, costs and decision times are live, not compiled at month end.
Read more02Rules that run themselves
Write the policy once. The process enforces it.
Thresholds, second signatures and stock checks sit inside the process. A request reaches the right approver first time, and cannot skip one.
Read more03Evidence by default
Every decision on the record.
Who asked, who approved, what it cost and why it was turned down, on an append-only trail that cannot be quietly edited. Changes to the process itself are recorded too.
Read more04Change at the speed of policy
When the rule changes, the process changes with it.
Processes are configuration, not custom software, so a new threshold or stage is not a development project. Your administrators manage your own people and records.

A request carries its lines, quantity, price and VAT, against a cost centre. The budget is checked when it is raised and the money is committed the moment it is approved, so the budget on screen is the budget that is left.
- Raise it. Lines, quantities, VAT and a cost centre. The budget is checked before anyone is asked to approve.
- Route it. Your own approval limits decide who signs: this cost centre, this amount, this person or role.
- Commit it. The money is held the moment it is approved, and released again if the request is cancelled.

Spend Requests
OperationsSpending that cannot quietly go over budget.
Approve spending before it happens, with each request checked against its budget, routed by your approval limits and committed so the same money can’t be approved twice.
Explore Spend RequestsAssets
OperationsA register that keeps itself current.

Human resourcesA balance that is a ledger, not a number.

Explore LeaveProjects
Project managementWork in columns, on the same records.

Explore ProjectsQuotes and Orders
SalesWhat you quoted, what you agreed, what it cost.
