Sales & Commercial
Structure commercial approvals before they erode margin or slow growth
REVO Approval Workflows turn sales orders, discounts, tenders, and commercial agreements into structured, auditable workflows, so teams can move faster while protecting pricing discipline, margin, and commercial control.
Why sales and commercial approvals break down
- Commercial approvals often involve pricing, margin, volume, payment terms, and contractual obligations, yet many teams still manage them through email chains and disconnected files.
- Missing rationale or incomplete commercial context slows decisions on discounts, tenders, sales orders, and agreements.
- Without structure, commercial teams risk inconsistent decisions, weak pricing discipline, and limited visibility into how budget and margin are being used.
- As approval volume grows, management struggles to track who approved what, on which basis, and with what financial impact.
Commercial approval work should protect growth and margin at the same time, but scattered decisions make pricing discipline harder to defend.
When structured commercial workflows become critical
- Your team regularly approves discounts, rebates, free goods, tenders, sales orders, or framework agreements.
- You need to move quickly on commercial opportunities without losing control over pricing logic, financial exposure, or documentation.
- You want clearer visibility into where margin is being conceded, which products consume the most commercial budget, and how requests are distributed across teams.
- You need a more reliable process for handling high-value commercial decisions at scale.
REVO workflow
How REVO helps teams move from activity to measurable impact
Turn commercial requests into structured forms
Capture the right commercial, financial, and contractual context before requests reach approvers.
Customize REVO's pre-built forms
Start from REVO's starter forms for sales and commercial approvals, then tailor fields, sections, and attachments to match your pricing policies, approval logic, and documentation requirements, without touching code.
Or build your own from scratch
Design new commercial approval forms in minutes by defining what financial, contractual, and operational data to collect. Configure dynamic fields that appear only for specific selections or approval routes, then configure closing forms to validate what happened and determine what should happen next, all through configuration, with no hardcoding or technical assistance required.
Route to the right reviewers with complete context
Define approval sequences around the way your company works, without hardcoding every business process into custom software.
Automate what happens after every decision
Standardize and accelerate how high-value approval requests move forward.
Outcome-based automation
Configure automations for any workflow and approval outcome. Approved, rejected, and changes-required decisions can each trigger different notifications, tasks, webhooks, and next steps.
Downstream workflows and system updates
Approved requests can initiate updates in your ERP and CRM systems, dispatch email notifications to relevant stakeholders, and launch closing workflows to finalize logistics and documentation.
Insights gained from adopting REVO Approval Workflows
Turn structured commercial approvals into visibility on investment, exposure, margin pressure, and budget use.
Customers and accounts with the highest commercial investment
See which customers, accounts, or channels receive the highest level of commercial investment through discounts, rebates, tenders, and special terms. When connected with CRM activity and account history, these insights help teams review whether commercial concessions align with account value and strategic importance.
Team members with the highest approval volume and commercial exposure
Identify which team members or business units generate the highest number of commercial requests and the greatest financial exposure. This helps management understand where pricing pressure, negotiation intensity, or exceptional approvals are most concentrated.
Product-level margin pressure and budget utilization
Track how discounts, rebates, and commercial commitments are distributed across products, including how much budget has been consumed and where pricing pressure is highest. This gives leadership better visibility into which products are absorbing the most commercial concessions and how much room remains.
