What you get

Everything an approval workflow needs

No half-baked state machine to wire up yourself — Approval Flows ships the whole chain, the inbox, and the audit trail.

DB-driven flows

Define flows and steps per model in the admin UI or a seeder — no code deploy to change a chain.

Sequential & parallel

“Any” (first sign-off passes) or “all” (every approver must sign) per step.

Role or user approvers

spatie/laravel-permission roles resolved out of the box, plus a pluggable resolver.

Delegation

Approvers hand off a pending step; opt out per step.

Escalation

Pending-too-long steps trigger notifications on a schedule you control.

Approval Inbox

A panel page listing everything the signed-in user can act on, with a badge count.

Three lines to wire up

Add it to any model

  1. 1

    Add the trait

    Use HasApprovals on the Eloquent model you want to gate (a PurchaseOrder, an Invoice, a Post…).

  2. 2

    Define a flow

    Create a flow and its ordered steps — in the bundled admin resource or a seeder. Assign each step to a role or specific users, pick "any" or "all".

  3. 3

    Submit & react

    Call $model->submitForApproval(). Approvers act from the Inbox; you listen for ApprovalCompleted to run your side effects.

PurchaseOrder.php 
use Talivio\ApprovalFlows\Concerns\HasApprovals;

class PurchaseOrder extends Model
{
    use HasApprovals;
}

// Submit a record for approval:
$po->submitForApproval();

// Run your side effect when the chain completes:
Event::listen(ApprovalCompleted::class, fn ($e) =>
    $e->approval->approvable->markApproved()
);
