Overview
SAP Concur is an enterprise travel, expense, and invoice management platform that automates the capture, submission, approval, and reimbursement of employee spend. It combines mobile receipt capture, policy-compliance enforcement, corporate card feeds, and AI-driven audit with connectors into major ERP and accounting systems. Now a subsidiary of SAP, it is one of the most widely deployed T&E solutions among mid-market and enterprise organizations.
The problem SAP Concur solves
Organizations with significant employee travel struggle to control spend when expenses are captured on paper receipts, submitted through manual processes, and reconciled inconsistently against policy. Finance teams hit slow reimbursements, weak compliance enforcement, and no clean path to post expense data into their ERP or GL. SAP Concur addresses this for mid-market and enterprise finance and travel teams by automating capture, approval, audit, and ERP posting end to end.
