Coming October 1: Improved Travel Allowance Experience in Concur

September 19, 2025

UA Concur Users:
Starting October 1, UA will launch an updated Travel Allowance experience in SAP Concur. Travel Allowance is the feature that determines how per diem is calculated and populated.

What's Changing?

• A more user-friendly Travel Allowance interface.
• Requests will now use a Travel Allowance Itinerary to populate per diem, aligning the process with how it works in Expense Reports.
• When you create an Expense Report from a Request, the Travel Allowance Itinerary will automatically transfer and populate per diem in the Expense Report.

Helpful Guides
To help you navigate the new experience, here are two quick reference documents:
