Latest Announcements

05/31/2023

The Offices of Procurement Services and Travel Services are announcing a new feature of SAP Concur that will go live June 26, 2023. Concur Detect by Oversight is an automated auditing tool that will help both departments streamline and improve the processing of Expense Reports. As early as this week, you will begin to see a new status message on Expense Reports that says “Pending External Validation” after submission. The purpose is to make sure the audit flags and exceptions we’ve built work and to provide data into the Oversight software for trend analysis before go live. Until go live, the Expense Report will stay in this status for 6 hours before being pushed through the normal approval workflow steps. Other than this there will be no changes to how you process or approve Expense Reports. If you have questions or concerns, please contact Marcus Carlton, 972-2011.
