What is Concur?

  • Concur Travel and Expense Management

    Concur is an automated, integrated online solution for expense management.

    All university employees are able to use Concur Expense for:

    • Reimbursement of any business-related expenses, in addition to travel expenses. Instead of manually completing separate request forms, employees will log into Concur to file all expense claim requests.
    • Tracking and reconciliation of MasterCard expenses.

    By leveraging Concur’s Expense platform, employees will benefit from time-saving and efficiency features such as:

    • receipts upload
    • simple approval process
    • status tracking

    Concur Expense offers a quicker turnaround on processed expense reports, with reimbursements direct-deposited into employee bank accounts in approximately three to five business days after approval. This means the employee will have access to their money faster; time and process efficiencies will also improve for both parties involved in the transaction.

  • Payment confirmations now available - August 2023

    The Finance department has added a new feature to Concur. Expense reports for out-of-pocket expenses since April 1, 2023, now have a new payment status of Payment Confirmed.

    The payment confirmation file is loaded weekly on Fridays, and the status of your expense report will change to Payment Confirmed if the payment was processed by Accounts Payable.

    Reimbursements are paid via direct deposit in five to eight business days after finance approval.

    To receive email notifications when the status of an expense report changes, ensure you have enabled Email Notifications in Expense Preferences under Profile Settings

    Employees, delegates and approvers can review the payment details of Expense Reports in Concur. You can find payment details in the Report Details dropdown under Report Payments.

    The Finance department looks forward to implementing more user-driven features in the future.

  • New Concur User Interface - January 2021
