# What Automation Tools Connect a Service Desk to an ERP?

Automation tools that connect a Service Desk to an ERP let tickets with a financial component, a purchase request submitted as a ticket, flow directly into the same approval and ERP entry structure as any other financial process. On **Jestor**, Service Desk and ERP integration share the same underlying platform.

Not every Service Desk ticket needs ERP involvement, but the ones that do, hardware purchases, software subscriptions, should not require switching to an entirely separate system just because they touch finance.

## What breaks when Service Desk and ERP stay separate

- A ticket needing a purchase requiring the requester to start a completely separate process
- No connection between the original support ticket and its resulting expense
- Manual tracking of which tickets are still waiting on financial approval
- Duplicate data entry between the ticketing system and the ERP

## How connected Service Desk to ERP automation works

- A ticket requiring a purchase can trigger a connected approval request
- **Alcada** rules route the financial component the same way as any other expense
- Once approved, it enters directly into **Omie** or **Conta Azul**
- The original ticket stays connected to its resulting financial record

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- Service Desk and financial approval share the same underlying structure
- No separate system needed for tickets that happen to require a purchase
- Native ERP integration removes manual reentry at the financial step
- The requester sees one continuous process, not two disconnected systems

| Ticket type                           | How ERP connection helps              |
| ------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------- |
| Hardware or software purchase request | Routes directly to financial approval |
