TEVASOFT and SAP Concur: the intelligent audit your expense management was missing
SAP Concur has established itself as the benchmark for business expense management. Submission, approval, reimbursement: the workflow is well-oiled, efficient, deployed across thousands of companies worldwide. But one question remains: who actually checks what gets submitted?
Processing is not auditing
Concur is built to streamline the process. An employee submits an expense, their manager approves it, accounting processes the reimbursement. The system works well for what it is: a workflow management tool.
The problem is that this workflow largely relies on trust. A €180 dinner labeled "client meal" with no mention of the attendees? Approved. Three Uber rides on the same evening for the same route? Approved. A receipt where the total doesn't match the line items? Approved — because nobody has time to check every line of every expense report.
This is precisely where TEVASOFT comes in.
What TEVASOFT adds to your Concur investment
The integration between TEVASOFT and SAP Concur is designed to be seamless. Data flows automatically: employees, reports, entities, audit statuses. Setup takes a few weeks with minimal IT involvement.
In practice, TEVASOFT adds three dimensions missing from standard processing:
Line-by-line AI analysis
EVA, our audit engine, examines each expense line individually. It compares amounts against local norms, checks consistency with the employee's history, and cross-references the receipt with merchant data. This isn't sampling — it's exhaustive auditing.
Intelligent risk prioritization
Rather than overwhelming your controllers with hundreds of alerts, TEVASOFT ranks reports by risk level. Cases requiring human intervention surface first. Compliant reports are validated automatically. Your teams focus on what matters.
Real-time feedback
Instead of waiting for a quarterly audit to discover anomalies, alerts are generated within the existing Concur workflow. Control becomes continuous, not periodic.
From validation to understanding
Concur tells you an expense was submitted and approved. TEVASOFT tells you whether it should have been.
The distinction is fundamental. With processing alone, you have visibility on amounts spent. With intelligent auditing, you understand how that money is being spent — and you identify savings opportunities that the standard approval workflow simply cannot reveal.
A concrete example: a 2,000-employee company using Concur discovers through TEVASOFT that 8% of its expense reports contain actionable anomalies — cross-department duplicates, altered receipts, recurring out-of-policy expenses. On a €5 million T&E budget, that represents €400,000 in recovery potential.
Not a replacement, a complement
This isn't about questioning your SAP Concur investment. Quite the opposite. TEVASOFT enhances that investment by exploiting the data Concur generates in ways the management tool, by design, does not.
Concur manages the process. TEVASOFT secures it. Together, you move from processing expenses to truly mastering them.
