OUR CUSTOMER BACKGROUND :

The company has 2,600+ employees, with offices in India & UK; manufacturing/marketing wound closure products, urology products and a range of minimally invasive solutions.

CHALLENGES :

  • Scope: One-country end-to-end Implementation including integration from and to SAP Concur and
    our customer’s SAP S4/HANA and SAP HCM systems
  • Manual Travel & Expense Management process for office- based staff without sufficient control in
    processing expense reports based on complex user entitlements
  • Objective to replace the legacy Travel & Expense Management Solution in place for field force users
  • Long pre-trip & expense report approval cycles times due to complex approval workflows
  • Difficulties in reporting travel spend on HCP attendee level to meet anticipated transparency
    reporting

SOLUTION :

FinTrans was selected as certified Concur Consulting & Implementation Partner for the end-to-end
Implementation of Concur for the India market for the following products

  • SAP Concur Expense
  • SAP Concur Request Add-on
  • ExpenseIt

FinTrans helped with :

  • Overall project management
  • Kick-off and Pre-Scoping
  • Analysis & Concur requirement gathering
  • Configuration Design and Build
  • Integration design & development
  • Coordination of the credit card feed implementation
  • Testing: Configuration validation and support in integration testing and User Acceptance Testing
  • Training and cut-over support
  • Post go-live support

VALUE ADDED :

  • After go-live and rapid stabilisation after only 2 months, our customer is now able to enjoy a fully
    automated SAP Concur solution from pre-trip request-to-reimbursement which is seamlessly
    integrated via SAP ICS and SFTP into the customer’s existing SAP S4/HANA (for cost object import,
    financial posting, and payment confirmation) and SAP HCM system landscape (for employee &
    hierarchy import).
  • The solution configuration in place after go-live respects all complexities of our customer’s Travel &
    Expense policy – in particular through the configuration of a hierarchy-based authorized approval
    workflow, travel allowance configuration & import, attendee functionality (HCP attendee types),
    DRIVE functionality for mileage, as well as numerous audit rules to manage entitlements through
    complex conditions tied to a combination of employee types/grades and departments.
  • Tangible results of the end-to-end solution implemented comprises a significant reduction of the
    turnaround time from claim-to-reimburse, policy enforcement, as well as a highly positive user
    satisfaction across all user groups.
