Templates
Reusable templates standardize fields, required attestations, and approver routing so documents remain consistent and reduce input errors across departments and locations.
Digitizing the travel authorization expedites approvals, improves accuracy, and provides an auditable record that supports regulatory and operational needs while reducing physical document handling.
An HR Manager configures templates, sets retention rules, and audits signed travel authorizations for compliance. They require role-based access, report exports, and the ability to revoke or reissue authorizations when policies change, ensuring records align with internal and legal retention schedules.
A Field Employee requests permission to travel to a job site using a mobile device, completes required attestations, and receives a digitally signed authorization. They need a simple signing experience, clear instructions, and access to a stored copy for inspections or check-ins.
Human resources, operations, facility managers, and team leads typically manage travel authorization workflows and approvals for on-site work or essential travel.
Smaller teams often rely on centralized templates while larger organizations require role-based approvals, audit trails, and integration with other enterprise systems.
Reusable templates standardize fields, required attestations, and approver routing so documents remain consistent and reduce input errors across departments and locations.
Send identical travel authorization requests to many recipients at once for scheduled site access or mass deployment, tracking completion and consolidating audit data for each signer.
Show or hide questions and attestations based on answers, ensuring only relevant fields appear and minimizing signer confusion while enforcing policy-specific capture.
Allow signers to complete the authorization within your web or mobile app for a seamless experience and to maintain branding and secure contexts during signing.
Comprehensive event logs capture timestamps, IP addresses, authentication steps, and document hashes to support dispute resolution and regulatory review.
Define who can create, send, approve, and view authorizations with fine-grained access controls and delegation options for large teams.
Integrate with Google Docs to generate prefilled travel authorization forms directly from document templates and sync signed PDFs to Drive for centralized access and version control across teams.
Connect travel authorization templates to Salesforce objects so requests auto-populate from contact and case records, record signatures in the CRM timeline, and trigger downstream processes like scheduling or badge activation.
Save signed travel authorizations automatically to designated Dropbox folders, apply folder-level retention policies, and maintain a consistent file structure for compliance and audits.
Use Office integrations to create templates from Word, send authorization requests from Outlook, and store signed records in SharePoint with governed retention and access control.

The solution supports modern browsers and native mobile apps, ensuring access for signers and approvers on desktop and mobile devices.

A hospital implements a standardized digital travel authorization for clinicians traveling between campuses to ensure staffing coverage and infection controls are documented clearly and consistently.
Resulting in faster approvals, auditable PHI-aware records, and clearer evidence of authorized on-site work during inspections.
A manufacturing site requires pre-approval for contractors entering production floors to maintain safety and capacity limits, using a mobile-first digital authorization template with mandatory safety attestations.
Leading to fewer access denials, cohesive contractor records, and reliable proof of approved site entry for audits.
