| SAP | Legacy | SAP Concur Expense | Expense Management | ERP | n/a | 2020 | 2020 |
In 2020, Rolls-Royce implemented SAP Concur Expense as its Expense Management solution. The deployment targeted supplier, contractor, and employee expense workflows and established SAP Concur Expense as the canonical system for expense reporting within the company.
The SAP Concur Expense configuration emphasized standard expense reporting and approval workflows, with a specific Guest/Visitor function enabled to handle Category 1 contractors who hold an Employee ID and are loaded into Workday. Expense submission rules require reservations to be paid with an individual credit card and appropriate travel insurance to be provided by the traveller's employer, and the system was configured to reflect those payment and documentation requirements.
Integrations and operational coverage align explicitly with Rolls-Royce travel sourcing. The implementation references Amex GBT as the Rolls-Royce Travel Service for bookings, and Workday is used to identify contractors with Employee IDs, informing how users are provisioned into SAP Concur Expense. Policy guidance routes most supplier and contractor travel bookings through Amex GBT rather than direct claims in SAP Concur Expense, and some contractor booking flows require Amex GBT profile creation prior to reservation.
Governance was codified in supplier and contractor travel guidelines, separating contractors into two categories with distinct booking procedures and enforcing duty of care responsibilities with the traveller's employer. The travel policy also requires adherence to Rolls-Royce IT Security Policy for any traveller issued company IT equipment, and the supplier portal documentation preserves the right for Rolls-Royce to charge associated booking fees back to the employee or supplier.
