Software request workflow template

manager

Simplify your software request process

Software requests often involve multiple approvals and communication steps, leading to delays and inefficiencies. Our workflow template streamlines the process by automating key steps, ensuring smooth coordination and reducing administrative burden. It also helps with employee onboarding by ensuring new hires gain timely access to the tools they need. The workflow integrates seamlessly with your existing systems, such as IT ticketing tools, HR platforms, and access management software, for a hassle-free experience.

How it works:

  1. Request submission:
  • Employees submit software requests via an intuitive online form, specifying the software needed and the purpose.
  • Automatic confirmation emails are sent to acknowledge receipt of the request.
  1. Manager approval:
  • The request is routed to the relevant manager for approval.
  • A reminder email is automatically sent if no action is taken within three days.
  1. Conditional processing:
  • Approved requests trigger the creation of procurement or installation tasks, such as automatically generating a Jira ticket for the IT department to take action.
  • Denied requests prompt an automatic notification with a reason for rejection and escalation options.
  1. Final notification:
  • The employee requesting the software receives an email confirming the approval or rejection of their request.
  • Approved requests proceed to the IT team for implementation.

Want to enhance your process?

Consider automating IT requests by integrating with your project management system. This allows employees to submit requests without needing to navigate complex tools like Jira or other IT systems. Once the task is completed, the workflow can trigger an automatic notification to confirm the software has been successfully set up.

You could also leverage AI to assess request. For instance, if an employee from a non-customer-facing department requests access to customer management software like Salesforce, AI can flag it for review before approval.

Why use this workflow template?

  • Reduce manual follow-ups: Automated reminders and notifications ensure requests progress without employees needing to chase approvals.
  • Faster software access: Employees receive the tools they need promptly, helping them start work sooner and stay productive.
  • Seamless IT coordination: Requests are automatically assigned to IT teams through systems like Jira, reducing bottlenecks.
  • Ensure regulatory compliance: Automating approvals and tracking requests helps maintain records and align with company policies and industry regulations.
