SAP Concur - Request to be able to extract Workflow data

Answered
Bart Van Peteghem User

Which application or service?: SAP Concur

What type of connector? (SaaS, Database, File or Event Source):

SAP Concur 

Additional details:

We are currently looking into if we could use Fivetran to connect to SAP Concur. 
I managed to find the following link with the corresponding API connectors
 
In this documentation however we are missing critical information such as "Workflows https://developer.concur.com/api-reference/expense/expense-report/v4.workflows.html "

Can this be added as a connector? 

This would avoid us to roll out current Cognos reporting requiring us to buy additional licenses. 

If yes, would you be able to give a timeline for making this available. 

Thanks in advance for your feedback. 

Regards, 

Bart

    Hi Bart,

    Thanks for the detailed request. To make sure we scope this correctly - could you clarify what workflow data you're looking to extract? Specifically:

    • Are you looking to read approval status and workflow step history on expense reports (i.e., who approved, when, what step)?

    • Or are you looking to trigger/action workflow steps (approve, send back) via Fivetran?

    For data pipeline use cases like yours, the former is what typically makes sense - and that data is partially available through the SAP Concur Reports v4 API via approval status fields. The Workflows v4 API you linked is primarily an action API (approve/send back), not a read API for workflow history.

    Once you confirm the exact data you need, I can assess feasibility and proceed further.

    Thanks,

    Tom

    Hi Tom, 

    We only need the first option – statuses and workflow history. Approvals/rejections will still be done inside Concur.

    Kind regards,

    Bart
