Automated Trovata Payment Approval Queue
Every morning, WebRun opens Trovata, collects all pending outgoing payments above your configured approval threshold, logs each one in a Google Sheet approval queue with payee, amount, bank, and expected value date, and pings the designated approver in Slack to review and authorize before the payment window closes.
How do I automatically queue large outgoing payments for treasury approval before they are released?
WebRun checks Trovata every morning for outgoing payments above your configured approval threshold, logs each one in a Google Sheet approval queue with payee, amount, bank, and value date, and pings the designated treasury approver in Slack with a link to the queue, ensuring every large payment gets a human review before the bank window closes.
- Every large payment flagged for human review before the bank window closes
- Approval queue in Google Sheets gives approver full context at a glance
- No payment above threshold moves without an explicit authorization step

Questions, answered
Will WebRun approve or release any payments automatically?
No. WebRun surfaces pending payments and queues them for human review. It never approves, releases, or initiates any payment. All authorization must be performed by the designated approver directly in the bank portal or payment system.
What is the approval threshold and can I change it?
You set the threshold during setup, for example any payment above $50,000. You can configure different thresholds for different currencies or entities, and update them any time by adjusting your WebRun settings.
What happens to payments below the threshold?
Payments below the threshold are not added to the approval queue and are not flagged. If you want a lower limit or want to log all payments regardless of size, update the threshold in your WebRun configuration.
