The Division of Financial Affairs (DFA) hosted a "DFA Conversations" event February 28, at which they featured SAP Concur, Cornell's new travel system.

The Internal Revenue Service has issued the 2019 optional standard mileage rates used to calculate the deductible costs of operating an automobile for business, charitable, medical or moving purposes.

Marriott Hotels & Resorts has announced that its guest reservation system has been compromised, potentially exposing guests’ personal information. The data breach affects Marriott’s Starwood reservation system, which includes St. Regis, Sheraton, and W Hotels.

A new feature of Concur called Expense Assistant is designed to improve and accelerate your expense reporting experience. Expected to be released to Cornell users later this year, Expense Assistant automatically adds your Available Expenses to an expense report for your trip.

First, ExpenseIt, the mobile app used to submit receipts with optical character (text) recognition (OCR) technology, will be integrated with Concur Mobile in July, streamlining the Concur mobile app experience.

If you’ve been looking for a way to minimize flight hassles and simplify trip reporting, TripIt Pro is worth your time. Once you’ve experienced the power and convenience of its mobile app, you might not want to leave home without it.

A lot has happened with the Concur Travel System project since the last general update in April, when the Phase 0 Pilot kickoff occurred. Phase 0 marked the first time any Cornell traveler used Concur.
