What is it?

About SAP Concur

SAP Concur is one of the Spend / Cards / AP / P2P platforms BeforeQuery connects to. Once linked, the platform's data becomes a first-class source for grounded AI answers and a target for policy-gated agent actions — the same identity, approval, and audit-log guarantees every other integration ships with.

Setup

How to connect SAP Concur

  1. Step 01

    In the BeforeQuery dashboard, go to Integrations → Spend / Cards / AP / P2P and select SAP Concur.

  2. Step 02

    Sign in to SAP Concur with an account that has permissions to grant BeforeQuery the Spend / Cards / AP / P2P scopes required.

  3. Step 03

    Confirm the connection. SAP Concur is now available as a source and action target for every playbook in your workspace.

Use cases

What teams actually do with the SAP Concur integration

Auto-approve routine spend

SAP Concur transactions under the auto-approve threshold, in-policy category, with clean receipt matching auto-clear. Everything else routes to the approver with the specific policy question highlighted.

Expense report drafting

Employee snaps a receipt → BeforeQuery classifies the merchant, pulls the calendar event (client dinner, team offsite), drafts the memo line, and files the expense report in SAP Concur. Employee approves, done.

Vendor risk + duplicate check

Before every AP payment in SAP Concur, BeforeQuery checks for duplicate invoices, sanctioned vendors, and unusual bank-account changes. Anomalies escalate to finance; clean payments proceed.

Answer questions grounded in SAP Concur

Employees and customers ask SAP Concur-related questions in Slack, Teams, or the widget — BeforeQuery answers with the exact SAP Concur record shown alongside the response. No context switching, no "log into Spend / Cards / AP / P2P to check" round-trips.

SAP Concur — Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about connecting BeforeQuery to SAP Concur.

Yes, with approver check-in per your matrix. Small payments (< threshold) can be autopilot; larger require finance approver; large + first-time-vendor combinations always require step-up.
Standard OAuth 2.0 where SAP Concur supports it, otherwise API-key or bearer-token auth. Credentials are stored encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM) per workspace, never shared across customers, and rotated on request. The connection is scoped to the least-privilege set of scopes each playbook needs — you approve the scope list on install.
No. Your SAP Concur data feeds only your workspace's own agents and answers. Nothing is used to train a shared model, and nothing crosses workspace boundaries. Bring-your-own-model is available on Enterprise if you want to pin inference to your own OpenAI / Anthropic / self-hosted deployment.
Yes. Every SAP Concur integration is scoped at install time — you pick which resources, users, or record types are visible. You can further restrict per-playbook: a single playbook only touches the specific SAP Concur objects it needs. Scope changes take effect on the next sync.
Every write is logged with the acting user, the playbook that fired it, the exact operation, the target entity IDs, and the timestamp — all in the immutable audit log. Writes are rehearsable in simulation mode against a copy of live data before they touch SAP Concur for real.
