Approvals

Marco Vierling

Recently there was an announcement that the powerup ‘Approvals for Trello’ will be discontinued.

This is a problem for my company as we absolutely need such an approval process.

The question to Atlassian. Will Trello perhaps get such a function itself?

Hi @Marco Vierling

You can try using this:

Card Approvals by Tiny Power-ups Club

Alternatively, you can build approval workflows using Trello automation. If you care to share exactly how you use Approvals to Trello, I can provide an automation example.

Hello, I am open for suggestions how it could work without powerup.

Otherwise we'll have a look at Tiny's and Hipporello's approvals.

Here is an example of what we do with it from our decentralised procurement:

An employee creates a card for an order with a supplier.
The supervisor approves this order with Approvals.
The employee triggers the order.

The whole thing with automatic movement in the Trello lists and with groups of people authorised to approve.

Hi @Marco Vierling

Your workflow can be done with automation for sure but I notice that this thread shows you are using Trello free and the automation quota is so low on the free package that it would most likely be the stumbling block for you.

Can you confirm if you are using the free or paid version of Trello?

For your example, this can definitely be done with automation and there are many different ways to achieve it...If you're new to Trello automation, you can start here:

Hi, no we already use Trello Premium and actually I have already created hundreds of rules, on about 30 boards.

However, I have no idea how to create this process with the existing rule options so that it is acceptable for our controlling.

It must be clear who has to approve.
This can be one person, but it can also be 2 out of 3 predefined persons.

You have to see who has authorised. (An entry in the activities via a changed user field is not sufficient)

It must be simple, as dozens of simple users have to obtain these authorisations.

Maybe there is something else I don't know.

I think the approvals power up from Tiny comes pretty close to the approvals for trello from AppFox. However, we don't like the fact that it charges per user or is very expensive.
