Top Considerations for Integrating SAP Concur Solutions

A SAP Concur blog post outlines key considerations for integrating its spend-management solutions, including four integration methods: on-demand manual login, Secure FTP overnight import/export, Web Services via RESTful APIs, and pre-built connectors. It also stresses data security and compliance audits, future scalability, and says over 48,000 companies connect their financial systems to SAP Concur, with SAP's ecosystem offering more than 21,000 connected partner solutions.

Impact and considerations

For IT and finance teams evaluating or migrating spend-management platforms, the integration method directly affects data update frequency, manual effort and compliance audit capability, and should be chosen based on existing systems and data-handling requirements.

Key points

  • SAP Concur software offers four main integration methods: on-demand, Secure FTP, Web Services and pre-built connectors.
  • The on-demand method requires a manual resource to log in and make changes; it suits companies with limited IT support but is not fully integrated.
  • Secure FTP provides a dedicated directory for data import and export, with approved expense reports and invoices generated through an overnight process.
  • Web Services leverages SAP Concur RESTful APIs to integrate data with middleware or in-house solutions, allowing data updates multiple times per day.
  • Pre-built connectors enable near real-time data connections, and the App Centre offers hundreds of third-party connectors.
  • SAP Concur says over 48,000 companies connect their financial systems to SAP Concur, and SAP's ecosystem includes more than 21,000 connected partner solutions.
