Overview

SAP Concur is an enterprise travel and expense (T&E) management platform for mid-market and enterprise businesses, owned by SAP SE. It covers expense reporting, travel booking (via Concur Travel), invoice management, and spend analytics. Pricing is entirely quote-based; there is no published per-user rate. SAP has an established Dublin office and Ireland is a named market, providing a degree of local account management for enterprise customers. An EU data centre deployment is available, though the default hosting can vary - businesses should confirm EU-only residency in their contract. VAT on expense receipts can be captured and categorised, including for Irish multi-rate scenarios. Settlement flows back to the customer's ERP (typically SAP S/4HANA or a third-party ERP), so SEPA Direct Debit is not a feature of Concur itself but of the downstream ERP. Receipt images stored in Concur satisfy Revenue's 6-year digital retention requirement per eBrief 09/15. Not suitable for SMEs - the implementation cost and complexity are pitched at companies with dedicated finance teams.

Editor's verdict on SAP Concur

stamped 2026-06-08

SAP Concur is the de facto standard for Irish enterprise finance teams that already operate within a SAP ecosystem. The Dublin office gives Irish enterprise customers a local point of contact, and the platform handles Irish multi-rate VAT on expenses reliably. Receipt images stored in Concur satisfy Revenue's 6-year digital retention requirement per eBrief 09/15. That said, it is not a credible option for Irish SMEs - the quote-only pricing, lengthy implementation cycles, and complexity of the platform are sized for companies with a dedicated finance function. Businesses below 50 employees should start with Pleo or Soldo.
