Basics of Payment Types

The image shows a screenshot of the SAP Concur administration interface, specifically under the Expense Settings section. The interface is divided into several sections: Settings. This section is highlighted with a gear icon; Capturing Spend: This section includes four main options: Custom Fields, Payment Types (highlighted in yellow), Expense Types for Expenses, and Mileage. An Edit button is present for each option.

Understanding payment types in Concur is critical as it clarifies the method used for each expense, aiding in tracking and reconciliation processes. It helps differentiate expenses paid directly by the company (such as company credit cards) from out-of-pocket expenses paid by the employee.

This distinction is essential in managing reimbursements, ensuring accurate reporting, and maintaining a clear and transparent financial record.

Also, the Payment Types page lets you manage company card programs and their associated data imports. Card programs can be added, removed, or modified for cards paid by employees and cards paid by the company. Each card program type can be configured with accounting information and a payment batch schedule. You can also manage the default payment type used to classify employee spending.
