🧳 Pack Smart, Move Smarter: How Concur Expense Is Redefining Business Travel

✈️ It’s time to celebrate—and dance! Business travel is evolving—this time with more style, purpose, and smarter ways to make “business moves!” 🎩

As someone who draws inspiration from pop culture, musical greats, and the artistry of dance, I’ve always seen movement as more than motion—it’s expression, it’s timing, it’s storytelling. And now, that same rhythm is showing up in how we travel for business.

From flight confirmations to packed calendars and freshly stamped passports, business travel is making a strong return. But this time, it’s not just about the destination—it’s about how we show up.📍

We needed new ways—more innovation, more intention, and a whole new “dance”...

🧾 Expense management can be cumbersome.

📄 Invoices can take too long.

📄 Policy compliance can feel like guesswork.

That’s where SAP Concur steps in—with solutions like Concur Expense, Concur Invoice, and SAP’s AI-powered copilot Joule, turning travel into something smoother, smarter, and more rhythmic – especially during busy periods

SAP Concur analyzed  from Concur Expense and saw an overall increase in the number of expense transactions, up 13% from 2023. Some interesting changes:

📈 “Lodging was up 17%,”

🚗 “Ground transportation was up 16%,”

🎩 "Entertainment is up 8%" 

🍽️ “Meals? Up 13%.”

As business travel increases, so does the number of expense reports. And with increased spending, more companies rely on expense policies and tools to help spot any errors or inaccuracies. “On average, 15-20% of expense reports contain non-compliant spend.” And, it’s usually not intentional fraud. It’s the little things: duplicate receipts, missing receipts, and overspending on benchmarks. These small errors can add up–and impact your bottom line. 

That’s why SAP Concur introduced solutions like Intelligent Audit and Concur Verify to catch these issues early. Powered by AI and machine learning, they run over “80 million compliance checks per month,” helping companies to stay compliant, reduce errors, and stay on track with greater efficiency.

🎩 And through it all—at every step—SAP Concur is helping manage the process without the paperwork headache. Whether it’s flagging missing receipts, syncing transactions, or keeping companies compliant, SAP Concur solutions are making business travel feel less like a hassle—and more like a well-curated experience: well-organized, well-supported, and well-equipped at every step throughout every journey. 🗺️
