Addepar Fee Approval Routing Automation
Each month, WebRun opens Addepar, reads advisory fee calculations for each billable entity, logs the amounts in a Google Sheets billing ledger, and drafts an approval email for each entity's fee to the designated approver in Gmail, so no fee is charged without explicit sign-off.
How can I automatically route fee and billing approvals for each family entity?
WebRun reads advisory fee calculations from Addepar each month, logs every entity fee in a Google Sheets billing ledger with deviation flags, and drafts a personalized approval request to each designated approver in Gmail, so no fee is charged until the right person has reviewed and signed off.
- Every fee approval request is drafted and routed to the right approver without manual prep
- Fee deviations over 5 percent flagged automatically before approval
- No fee charged without an explicit human sign-off on record

Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it initiate or charge any fee without human approval?
No. Every approval request is saved as a Gmail draft. No fee is charged and no approval email is sent until a designated approver reviews and explicitly sends it.
How does it handle fees that vary significantly from last month?
It flags any fee that deviates more than 5 percent from the prior period in both the Google Sheets ledger and the draft email, so the approver is immediately aware of the variance before approving.
Can it route different entities to different approvers?
Yes. You configure the approver mapping per entity or billing group, and WebRun addresses each draft email to the correct approver based on that mapping.
