# Process automation for companies with multiple branches: how to scale

Automating processes in companies with multiple branches requires a balance between central standardization — to ensure compliance and consolidated visibility — and local autonomy — so each unit can resolve its demands without depending on headquarters for everything. Automation resolves this balance when configured with shared processes and independent queues per branch.

## Why automation is more critical in multi-branch operations

In a company with one unit, the manager sees what's happening. In a company with five branches, without a centralized system, the manager doesn't know what's in progress at each one — and each branch discovers its own solutions to the same problems, creating operational inconsistency.

Process automation in multi-site environments solves two problems at once: it standardizes the process across all units and provides centralized visibility for management without requiring manual reports from each branch.

## How to scale automations to multiple branches

- **Centrally standardized process:** headquarters defines the workflow, rules, and automations — each branch executes within the same structure
- **Independent queues per branch:** each unit has its own task queue within the shared process
- **Automations with branch context:** the approval goes to the correct branch manager, not a general approver
- **Consolidated dashboard:** headquarters sees the volume and performance of all units in a single panel
- **Permissions per unit:** each employee accesses only their branch's data

## Common challenges in multi-site automations and how to solve them

- **Different authority levels per branch:** the local manager approves up to $X; above that, it escalates to headquarters — configurable by condition in the flow
- **ERP data per legal entity:** Jestor supports multiple ERP accounts at no additional cost per entity
- **Onboarding a new branch:** standardized processes are replicated for the new unit in hours — without reconfiguration from scratch

## Why Jestor was designed for multi-site operations

- Billing per active users — no additional cost per number of branches or legal entities
- Multi-account integration with Omie ERP without middleware — works for holdings and franchises
- Granular permissions that separate data by unit in the same instance
- Clients like Rumo and The Coffee operate Jestor across multiple units

## Frequently asked questions

**Is it possible to have approval flows with different authority levels per branch in Jestor?** Yes. Conditions in automations allow defining different approvers and limits per branch. See at [jestor.com](https://jestor.com/?ref=blog.jestor.com).

**Can headquarters see the performance of all branches in a single dashboard?** Yes. Jestor consolidates data from multiple units in configurable dashboards with filters by branch.

**Does opening a new branch require reconfiguring all processes in Jestor?** No. Standardized processes are replicated for new units — the new branch inherits already-validated automations and workflows.
