Travel and Expense

Facing a Challenge? The SAP Concur App Centre Can Help

Lara Edwards |

Need your ERP to work better with your SAP Concur solutions? Want to help employees make more cost-effective travel choices – and think rewards might help? Want to accelerate reimbursements – and cashflow accuracy – by simplifying receipt capture and expense submittal? 

Many companies like yours have found “yes” answers to those and other business questions from the ever-growing SAP Concur App Centre. Available to customers using our travel, expense, and invoice management solutions, the app centre is the place to find apps and services to fuel savings, increase efficiency and productivity, and take aim at priorities ranging from compliance to sustainability.  

The options include payment providers, carbon emission trackers, trip planners, duty of care providers, mileage calculators, tax-recovery tools, ride sharing, dozens of ERP connectors, major hotel chains, airlines, car rentals, and more.

Different Apps for Different Needs

Some apps are ones we created, like ExpenseIt - SAP Concur's mobile app for expense management. Or TripIt - our free travellers app for managing travel plans on the go all in one place. But the great majority come from our wide range of partners, including apps endorsed after undergoing rigorous review.  

The apps come in two broad types: user connections and business applications. Fee-free user connections are, as the name applies, for travellers and other end users in your business, who can download and link them to solutions on their own.  

Enterprise applications, which are fee based, are tools administrators of SAP Concur solutions can enable for use by the company and its employees. 

How Businesses Are Helped 

No matter the category or the partners, the apps are intended to fill needs and solve problems. Here are some examples of customers who used apps in the SAP Concur App Centre to solve their challenges and how it's helped them: 

  • A live entertainment production company, for instance, sought to control travel costs, a sizable part of its operating expenses. It saved 36% on travel spending with the Rocketrip app, which estimates the appropriate amount a trip should costs and splits savings between the company and the employee who made choices to beat the budget. Motivated to book in advance, fly early, rent smaller cars, and more, travelers earn points they can redeem for rewards from cash cards to charitable donations.  
  • With a combination of Concur Expense, ExpenseIt, Wipfli ExpenseConnect, and other solutions, a cybersecurity software provider cut 16 days off its expense reimbursement window. 
  • Bogged down by the time and tedium of manually inputting expenses into its ERP, an animal nutrition company used WIPFLi ExpenseConnect to link SAP Concur solutions and the ERP, turning an 8-12-hour process into a 30-minute one. 

 

Making the App Centre Work for You 

With 300-plus apps, there is much to consider and explore within the SAP Concur App Centre. To narrow your options, you can tighten your focus by searching in a dozen major categories, including air & travel, cars & trains, finance & HR, compliance, sustainability, duty of care, and ERP integrations. 

Many of the broader categories are broken down into subcategories. You can find apps that work with our travel, invoice, and expense solutions or with specific ERP systems. Or by country or region in which the app is available. Whatever path selected, the common denominators you’ll find are solutions that fill needs and extend the value and utility of SAP Concur solutions.
