20. Concur Online Booking Tool
Travel Request
Condense Spending and Reduce Costs
Travel Request is designed to help businesses manage travel more effectively. Once an
employee starts to plan a trip, managers and approvers can approve, reject and request
modifications during the process. Gain visibility into flights, car rentals, hotel rooms, rail and
other expenses. This gives you greater insight into pre-planned and actual expenses, allowing
for more accurate forecasts of travel costs.
Optimize Booking Integration
When integrated with Concur's Travel solution, employee-entered travel requests are sent for
approvals. Employees can use Concur's travel booking solutions to automatically create a travel
request. Meanwhile, agencies can book travel for employees based on notification after
approvals.
Improve Control and Efficiency
Thanks to a greater level of pre-trip control and approval, unnecessary and wasteful travel is
eliminated. You'll also be able to ensure more reliable travel policy compliance. Altogether,
Travel Request helps keep your management process efficient and organized. Talk about
serenity.
