What’s Happening in February

Resolve to make 2012 your most efficient year yet

A new year means a renewed resolve to make your business run more efficiently and decrease your employee spend. Automation, training and technology are a few of the ideas Concur’s thought leaders and clients are focused on to make expense management systems more streamlined in 2012.

“Let me suggest that if you really want 2012 to be a better year, now is a good time to start tinkering with a new recipe,” says Steve Strauss, business travel expert. “Brainstorm with your team, come up with a few new profit centers for your business, create a game plan, and then start testing.”

If automation is a New Year resolution, now is the perfect time to start learning more about industry trends and how Concur might be the right solution for your expense management challenges.

Check out more of our New Year tips from to see what Concur clients recommend for a successful 2012.

Your ideas implemented

Thank you for your Solution Suggestions. Here are some of your ideas recently implemented:

User can add travel or authorization request after report creation: A user can now add additional travel requests or authorization requests to the expense report after expenses are assigned to the report.

PO Matching (Non-Inventory / 2-Way Match): (Early Adopter Program) This feature helps companies authorize spend before it occurs, while retaining visibility and control. Companies can more easily put spend on purchase orders, catch exceptions, and route to owners for resolution, within a central automated system.

Exclude Rules with Lowest Logical Fare (SID6794): With this release, flights that break the rule Exclude From LLF will not appear in the travel rule violation popup. Those flights are not rule-compliant and should not be presented as an alternative to the user.
