Choose an approval path while renewal confidence breaks

You’re the customer success / solutions lead. Your team is in the room. Printed Oct 19, 2026.

The approval path that protects finance is delaying the trips leaders need to take.

Travel leaders need faster booking decisions, while finance needs a record that explains every authorization.

Who you’d be doing this for

“My executives are asking why a held fare disappeared, and finance wants the approval trail for the same trip.”

Marta Colombo · Corporate Travel Manager

Owns policy administration and traveler adoption for the enterprise travel program.

What is at stake

Senior travelers are losing fare holds while finance cannot trace several approved trips. You must weigh booking speed against an authorization record the customer can defend.

Why it isn’t already fixed

Every obvious fix costs something else. That’s the part you’d have to decide.

  • fare-hold protection vs. approval traceability
  • renewal urgency vs. irreversible configuration change
  • traveler adoption vs. finance controls
  • service exceptions vs. scalable program design

Why Navan
