Describing Key Considerations

Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to describe the key considerations when working with Verify.

Review the Receipt Requirements

  • Verify will only evaluate receipts attached at the line item level.
  • Verify will not process poor-quality receipts or multiple receipt images.
  • Documentation requirements, such as requiring receipts before submission, must be handled in Concur Expense.
  • Enforce the receipt images; if the expense type does not require receipts, no check will run for it.Receipt handling configuration options in SAP Concur interface settings.

Update the Expense Audit Required field

The Expense Audit Required field is updated under User Administration. The default setting for this field is Audit required conditionally. For users who should be excluded from Verify checks, update the Expense Audit Required field to Audit Never Required. Verify checks will not apply to users with this setting.

Confirm Verify Checks works as expected

  • Configure the Traveler Name check only for travel-related expenses such as air/flight, car, rental, and hotel.
  • Configure the Duplicate Meal Claim and Unreasonable Amount checks only for meal-related expense types, including those from the Entertainment spend category. Also, Attendees must be configured by the expense administrator with the SYSEMP Attendee Type Code.
  • Ensure City is required for any expense types you want to include. For example, the Unreasonable Amount, Duplicate Meal Claim, and Duplicate Transaction checks require users to provide the location in the City field.
  • Configure expense types explicitly by meal type instead of generic. The Unreasonable Amount check is based on Meal Type. Users must select a specific meal, such as Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner, for more accurate results.
