    SAP Concur: Eight Key Questions to Review Your T&E Program

    SAP Concur published a blog urging finance leaders to periodically review their travel and expense (T&E) programs, offering eight key questions: whether T&E is defined consistently, whether spend can be managed in hybrid and remote settings, spend agility, fraud reduction, whether compliance protects both company and employees, whether the T&E system needs change, whether employees will actually follow the expense policy, and whether the right tools measure success. It notes employees use more payment methods and categories, and that without visibility and controls, spend data scatters, compliance slips and costs rise, citing that companies lose an average of 5% of annual revenue to fraud.

    SAP Concur published a blog on generative AI applications in travel and expense management. It cites survey data: 51% of CFOs are investing in AI technology, up from 15% in August 2023; 58% of CFOs have very little knowledge about AI and only 4% are confident they have a strong grasp of it.

    SAP Concur: Controlling T&E Spend Through Automation

    SAP Concur published an article on how companies can strengthen T&E spend oversight without adding headcount. T&E can account for as much as 10% of a company's budget, and greater employee spending power raises risks of fraud, compliance breaches and traveler safety. SAP Concur offers mobile tools that help write expense reports, automatically applies spending controls and targeted audit rules, and Concur Audit uses objective experts to review reports against internal policies and regulatory requirements. An IDC infographic shows that after implementing SAP Concur, 62% more employees followed T&E policies, lost receipts fell 67%, auditing staff was 28% more efficient, and businesses saw ave…

IDC recently conducted a study of worldwide SaaS cloud-enabled T&E management solutions and provided a vendor selection guide. SAP Concur was named a leader in SMB global T&E management by IDC MarketScape.

    Three Reasons to Adopt a Travel and Expense Management Solution: Simplicity, Safety, Spending

    A SAP Concur blog post, citing IDC MarketScape research, outlines three business benefits of adopting an app-based travel and expense management solution. First, simplicity: employees can book and manage trips via mobile, with itinerary and credit card data consolidated, reducing paperwork and boosting productivity and engagement. Second, safety: the solution collects itinerary details from every booking channel and combines them with card transaction data to locate and reach employees in emergencies, fulfilling duty of care. Third, spending: full visibility into bookings and spend helps identify savings, track budgets, strengthen supplier negotiations, and support policy compliance, regula…

    SAP Concur: Going Beyond Travel Automation to Help Businesses Go Green

    SAP Concur argues that after automating travel and expense (T&E) processes, organizations can further leverage travel data to advance sustainability. It recommends adopting booking systems that display carbon emissions per flight segment and promoting suppliers with sustainable practices. SAP Concur and its App Center partners such as Scope 5, Lyft, and auto rental companies can help track business-travel emissions, select flight or train routes based on carbon emissions, include hybrid options in car-rental selections, and provide carbon-neutral rides. Customers can also run reports to identify the travel categories with the highest carbon emissions and educate employees on reducing their…

    SAP Concur: How Global Clients Can Leverage Preferred Care Experts in Disruptive Outsourcing

    SAP Concur argues that as companies expand into international markets, their financial and IT systems become increasingly complex and decentralized, making it hard to gain the visibility and control needed to manage SAP Concur solutions. It cites Deloitte's Global Outsourcing Survey (2018, more than 500 executives) that the focus of outsourcing has shifted from traditional work transfer to upfront transformation and automation, and that organizations see 'buying' capabilities in the marketplace as generally faster and more scalable than developing them internally. It describes the Preferred Care service, which offers Authorized Support Contact training, tailored release support, product roa…

    How Smith & Nephew Eliminated Manager Expense Approval

    A SAP Concur blog post describes how global medical devices company Smith & Nephew eliminated manager expense approval. Travel and expense lead Jorge Monge says the biggest challenge was assuring managers that expenses are properly controlled and compliant. After adopting artificial intelligence technologies, the company not only completely removed the manager approval step but also increased expense reporting accuracy. Monge says Concur Detect enabled the change and positioned the company as a benchmark internally and externally. The company took a top-down approach, securing buy-in from compliance, legal, and communications stakeholders, and emphasized efficiency and compliance benefits.…

    How the Pandemic Changed CME Spend for Healthcare

    A SAP Concur blog post notes the pandemic changed how physicians approach continuing medical education (CME). A 2020 PlatformQ Health survey of 200 physicians found 9 in 10 said they will use online courses as their primary CME format post-COVID-19, while at least 22% still plan to seek most CME at in-person meetings. The article lists three CME spend management problems: manual processes relying on spreadsheets and paper receipts are hard to manage and error-prone with remote work; limited visibility makes it hard to track compliance as online and incentive-based CME grows; and budgets are hard to control without pre-approval and adjustment capability. SAP Concur customer data shows 40% of…

    SAP Concur: Corporate Cards and P-Cards for Better Insight into Employee Spend

    SAP Concur explains the role of corporate cards and purchasing cards (P-Cards) in managing employee spend. It says many organizations have done away with pre-approvals for employee spend and instead rely on organizational and departmental policies to guide spending behavior, but this reduces visibility. Corporate cards are issued by a bank or financial institution to employees and are associated with an employee name or number, aiding tracking; P-Cards are account numbers issued to an organization, accepted by suppliers through the existing credit card system, with controls such as purchase thresholds, monthly limits, and merchant category codes. It recommends combining corporate-card and P…

    Employee Needs Have Changed. Has Your Travel and Expense Program?

    SAP Concur notes that the pandemic shifted employee travel and spending behavior, such as moving from hotels to apartments or vacation rentals and extending business trips with personal vacation. These changes create significant gaps between organizations' travel and expense (T&E) programs and employees' real-life needs. The article recommends gathering and measuring employee sentiment data, combining it with operational data, assessing how policies affect sentiment, and using the data to improve T&E programs, which can enhance compliance, cost efficiency, and duty of care.

    Travel Management for SMBs: Spend Control That Belongs in the Budget

    A SAP Concur blog post aimed at SMBs argues the question is not how much a travel and expense management solution costs but how much it saves. Citing IDC MarketScape, it recommends moving from spreadsheets and manual expense reports to cloud-based T&E management software. The article stresses that employee safety is paramount: without visibility into itineraries and credit card spend, it is difficult to locate, reach, and if necessary retrieve employees, making duty of care hard to fulfill. Real-time T&E data viewable by category, vendor, cost center, team, and employee helps cut costs, spot savings, expose hidden spending, and strengthen supplier negotiations. Automation and analytics also…

    Survey: 81% of UK Finance Leaders Have T&E Spend Blind Spots

    SAP Concur published an article citing a survey of UK finance leaders, finding 81% have blind spots in their company's travel, expense and invoice spend. A typical company spends more than 10% of its annual budget on T&E. The article lists sources of blind spots: retrospective expense claims prevent cash-flow forecasting; around half of employees prefer to book independently even when the company has an online booking tool; supplier spend is fragmented across channels; more than two-thirds of finance leaders lack confidence in employee T&E policy compliance; and 77% of UK finance leaders lack confidence their business could quickly and accurately locate business travelers in an emergency.

    SAP Concur: Why T&E Management is Critical in the Financial Services Industry

    A SAP Concur blog post analyzes the importance of travel and expense (T&E) management in the financial services industry. It notes that because employees like relationship managers and financial advisors travel frequently, T&E is a major cost center after personnel costs. The highly regulated nature of the industry requires T&E systems to enhance policy compliance, prevent fraud, and meet regulatory requirements like duty of care. The article recommends cloud-based solutions to enhance data security, reduce costs, and improve employee experience.

    SAP Concur: 3 Key Factors in Achieving a Compliant, Efficient Month-End

    SAP Concur argues that paper-based month-end closing is often stressful and inefficient, and identifies three obstacles: difficulty gathering paperwork, time-consuming and error-prone data entry, and poor data quality that leaves no clear real-time view of finances. It says automation solves these problems: Concur Expense lets employees photograph receipts on their smartphones and automatically convert them into claims, while Concur TripLink captures travel plans and spend. Data flows seamlessly into the finance system, eliminating manual error, giving earlier visibility into spend for proactive decisions, and providing an end-to-end audit trail.

    SAP Concur: Automated Expense and Travel Management Is the Right Move

    SAP Concur argues that an automated travel and expense management system can help companies control costs that have historically been difficult to manage. It notes that travel and expense costs were the second most difficult cost to control in corporate settings, and that outdated budgeting systems and misplaced documents make consolidation and reporting hard. A cloud-based system lets employees track spending on the go and maintain reports in one place, and submitting spending as it occurs helps avoid year-by-year losses. Immediate tracking and consolidated reporting also improve spend visibility, helping companies better understand budgets and reallocate savings. Companies can use this da…

    SAP Concur: How Automated Expense Management Frees Finance to Focus on What Matters Most

    SAP Concur argues that manual and spreadsheet-driven processes have an even bigger impact on the efficiency and growth goals of small-to-midsize businesses (SMBs) given their resource constraints. It cites research that 41% of businesses have a paper-based expense process, 26% use spreadsheets to manage expenses, and 73% do not use automated expense management systems at all. It lists four categories of reasons SMBs have not automated, and cites AMI-Partners data that automated spending solutions deliver significant savings: improved tracking saves finance firms US$28,000 per year and retail businesses $33,000 per year; more-accurate data saves professional services firms $39,000 per year;…

    SAP Concur: Employee Well-Being Is Key to Sustainable Business Growth

    SAP Concur argues that sustainable growth goes beyond financials and means prioritizing employee well-being. It cites data that 39% of workers would be willing to work harder if they were happy in their current role or workplace, and Gallup data that 70% of employees lack engagement due to dissatisfaction, estimated to cost $450 billion to $550 billion in lost productivity per year. It uses RXBAR as an example: a surge in demand drove rapid growth, more employee travel led to a flood of expense reports, and the finance team spent extra hours compiling and reviewing submissions. By automating its expense process, RXBAR gained the insight and flexibility needed for fast, data-driven decisions.

    SAP Concur: Six Ways Automation Can Unlock T&E Savings

    A SAP Concur blog post argues that rapid changes in technology and traveler behavior are reshaping corporate travel, requiring modern solutions to control employee spend. It lists six ways automation can uncover savings, including reducing manual-entry errors, cutting management time, and gaining visibility into mobile spend. It cites a 2015 Oversight Systems study finding one in ten travelers submits at least one duplicate expense in error, at roughly $50 per error, and notes that poor mobile-contract management can mean overpaying by as much as 30% per device.
