Introducing Company Tree

Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to access and explain the purpose of the Company Tree in Concur Travel.

The Company Tree

Concur Travel features two main administrative sections:

  • Company Administration: allows you to manage company-wide settings and preferences, update user data, assign permissions, set travel policies, define approval workflows, configure reporting options, and adjust travel booking settings
  • Travel System Administration: allows you to set up new companies and administer company-specific features

To access the Company Tree, go to Administration > Travel > Travel System Admin

Within Travel System Administration, you'll see a list of companies you can access; this is called the Company Tree.

Screenshot of the Travel System Admin page titled “Company Travel Configuration.” A left sidebar shows navigation sections for Agency Setup, Company Travel Setup, and Company‑Specific Configuration. The main area displays “Companies configured: 3” and a table with columns: Company/Setup, ID, Config ID, Agency Booking Config, GDS, PCC, ARC/IATA, and Travel Edition. Three company rows are listed, with the following Company/Config.: *Northerly Accounting Inc./NAI US, *Northerly Accounting Inc./NAI DE, and *Northerly Accounting Inc./NAI India. Each company linked to an agency booking configuration and different GDS (e.g., Amadeus, Apollo, Sabre), all marked as Professional. A “Show inactive configurations” checkbox appears at the top right.

Note

This feature is permission-based. To access the Travel System Administration, you need the Travel Agent permission.

The Company Tree displays each company and its associated travel configuration, making it easy to view and manage multiple organizations. Each company in Concur Travel has a unique configuration, which includes:

  • Company: SAP Concur associates every customer or legal entity with a company profile for accurate tracking and reporting
  • Company Travel Configuration(s): Each company can have one or more travel configurations which define the user experience and control the platform’s travel management functionality
  • Agency Configuration(s): Each agency configuration contains specific details about the Travel Management Company (TMC), such as Pseudo City Code (PCC), queue settings, ticketing deadlines, cancellation policies, and contact information, which can be applied across multiple travel configurations

  • Company Administration manages settings, users, permissions, policies, approvals, reporting, and booking options
  • Travel System Administration sets up new companies and manages company-specific features
  • The access to the Company Tree requires Travel Agent permission
