Move Your Business Forward with an Experienced Spend Management Partner
2020 has been an exceptionally volatile year for business.
The COVID-19 pandemic has shaken global economies in ways we have not seen for nearly a century. Some businesses have prospered while others struggle. Whatever your situation, keeping a close eye on costs and staying on top of cash flow have never been more important to long-term stability and success. In order to make quick decisions about how to mitigate challenges and maximise on opportunities, your finance and accounting teams need deep insight into every aspect of your company spend. And the only way to give it to them is by digitising the way you manage company spend.
From managing expenses and invoices to returning to travel, SAP Concur solutions and services have got you covered.
If the past year has taught us anything, it’s that business success depends on being able to operate anytime, anywhere. With record numbers of employees working remotely, manual and error-prone paper, email, and spreadsheet-based processes no longer make the grade. It’s critical to ensure your company spend management processes are integrated, automated, and accessible on any device. No more saving paper receipts, typing in data from invoice documents, and following up with managers about approvals and reimbursements. Plus, with the ability to control user actions based on your internal policies, statutory regulations, and workflow requirements, you can quickly flag noncompliant spending, identify waste, and automatically guide users to make spending choices that are good for your business.
Even if you have partially automated the way your process and manage company spend, consolidating data that is still being gathered manually and integrating data from multiple systems is time consuming for finance teams and leaves blind spots in your overall spend visibility. Not only do SAP Concur solutions fully integrate with each other, they also integrate with more than 50 of the most-used ERP and accounting systems – empowering finance teams with the holistic spend insight and control they need to drive smart spend strategy. Not only can you run ad hoc analysis on spending data by category, supplier, team, or employee, you can use that information to plan, forecast, and reforecast as sales fluctuate and new opportunities arise. And, to keep things simple, more than 200 standardised reports are available to answer the most critical and common spending questions.
In addition to unifying and automating your spend management data and processes and providing detailed spend insight, SAP Concur solutions come with our deep commitment to customer success.
