Concur: September 2024 Update

The Concur system for travel and expense management launched on Thursday, Aug. 8. Starting Oct. 1, employees must use Concur for all travel completed. Paper-based travel processes will be retired on Oct. 1. Below is what administrators, delegates, approvers, travel arrangers and travelers need to know.

What you need to know

Transition Details

Once the transition to Concur is complete, employees will use Concur to process travel requests and expense reporting (travel and purchasing cards). Important dates to remember:

• For travel completed on or after Oct. 1, travelers who previously created a paper Travel Authorization need to create a new Travel Request in Concur to match it to the Expense Report in Concur once travel is completed.
• For travel completed before Sept. 30 and submitted prior to October 30, employees who travel can submit a paper Travel Reimbursement & Expense Report or attach a previously approved paper Travel Authorization to a Travel Expense Report in Concur.

First Time Users

If you are new to Concur, please reference the Concur launch announcement for access instructions, required employee actions, and support and training options. Additional details and resources are available on the Concur project page.

Non-employees & Students

Non-employees (e.g., job candidates and speakers) and students will use the current paper forms to handle their expenses until this population transitions into Concur later. Some forms will be modified to closely match the current process and naming conventions. Graduate assistants were loaded into Concur as employees during the initial launch.
