You Don't Need to Be Big to Need Automation

Lara Edwards |

“Do you have the receipt?”, “Are these expense details accurate?”, and “Was this claim approved?” are three questions no employee wants to hear and finance teams big and small are tired of asking.  

It’s not surprising then that nearly two-thirds of small to medium-sized businesses say improving employee satisfaction has become a top priority. Close behind is the desire to free employees from mundane tasks so they can focus on more strategic work. 

In other words, digitising and automating expense management processes is no longer a nice-to-have. And for a not-so-big business, it can be mission-critical. 

Will your Employee Love Using Concur Expense? 

While we can’t speak for how your employees will feel about using Concur Expense, they will have an easier time getting their expense tasks done. 

Here’s why: 

  • Whether in the office, at home, or out in the world, your employees will be able to use the SAP Concur mobile app to quickly snap a pic of their receipt.  
  • Our proprietary OCR and machine-learning technologies then automatically itemise and categorise each expense, plus flag any potential out-of-policy claims.  
  • The only thing left for an employee to do is quickly review the expense report, add any additional info needed, and press submit.  

No more lost receipts, lost hours, or lost peace of mind.  

The same goes for your managers and finance team: 

  • Concur Expense will send them a notification as soon as an expense report has been submitted. 
  • Each expense report and attached receipt photos can be then easily reviewed on a mobile phone, tablet, or laptop.  
  • All that’s left to do is press the approve button or send a message right within the app to the employee if further details are required.
