Mimaki automates internal process with Power Apps
At Mimaki, several internal processes involving an approval step aren't yet (or only partly) digitized, such as submitting expense claims and requesting purchasing budgets. As a result, these processes aren't carried out consistently, there's no overall overview of requests and approvals, error rates are high, and a fair amount of manual work is still needed. Mimaki wants to solve this using low-code techniques. Mimaki chose Microsoft Power Apps as the platform for digitizing internal approval processes with custom applications that all employees across Europe can use.
The Result
Power Platform
Using Microsoft's Power Platform, E-mergo developed a solution for Mimaki employees and managers involved in the expense claim process. The solution consists of a canvas app built with Power Apps and a number of flows built with Power Automate.
Convenience
Thanks to the combination of Power Apps and Power Automate, there's no longer any need to work with PDF forms or Excel files, or to send emails yourself to request approvals. All data and documents related to the expense claims are stored and retained in a consistent, scalable and durable way.
Secure data
The data created by the app is automatically stored in Dataverse, a database in the Azure Cloud that forms an integral part of the Power Platform. The data in Dataverse is well secured and can easily be accessed from Power BI to create analyses and reports.
