Using Pequity Approvals With and Without a Greenhouse Integration

Pequity’s Approvals tool is designed to streamline compensation approvals and provide clear visibility into every step of the process. While Approvals offers a seamless integration with Greenhouse, it’s important to know that the tool is 100% usable without the integration.

✅ Approvals Without Greenhouse

Even if your team doesn’t use Greenhouse — or you choose not to connect it — you’ll still have full access to all Approvals functionality:

  • Configurable workflows: Create, edit, and manage approval chains that reflect your organization’s policies.

  • Clear visibility: Track requests, approver status, and decision history in one place.

  • Automated notifications: Ensure approvers are alerted and requests never get stuck.

  • Audit-ready records: Maintain a transparent log of all approval actions.

In short: Approvals works perfectly on its own, and no integration is required to benefit from its core capabilities.

🔄 Advantages of Greenhouse Integration

When connected to Greenhouse, Pequity Approvals can read and write directly to your applicant tracking system (ATS). This creates a two-way sync that provides additional convenience and data alignment:

  • Automatic data sync: Candidate and role details flow directly from Greenhouse into Pequity Approvals, reducing manual entry.

  • Streamlined workflows: Approved compensation decisions in Pequity can be written back into Greenhouse, ensuring both systems stay in sync.

  • Fewer errors: Eliminate discrepancies between offers in Pequity and Greenhouse by keeping data consistent.

  • Time savings: No double entry — updates in one system are reflected in the other.

⚖️ Which Setup is Right for You?

  • Without Greenhouse integration → Ideal if you’re using a different ATS, or want to manage approvals entirely within Pequity. You’ll still get all the benefits of automated workflows, visibility, and compliance.

  • With Greenhouse integration → Best if you want systems synced and data flowing automatically between Pequity and Greenhouse, minimizing manual steps.

output (1)Bottom Line

Pequity’s Approvals tool is powerful and complete with or without Greenhouse integration. The integration simply adds the advantage of syncing candidate and compensation data across systems, saving time and reducing manual work — but it is not required for you to get full value from Approvals. Even without the Greenhouse integration, Approvals provides significant benefits on its own. You can configure custom approval workflows, track requests in real time, send automated reminders, and maintain a complete audit trail of every decision. This means your team gets the full power of streamlined, compliant approval processes — all without needing to connect to an external system.
