Concur Intelligence Reporting

Main Content

Concur Reporting Intelligence, powered by Cognos software, offers a comprehensive reporting solution that optimizes reporting throughout the Concur platform. It comes with pre-built general reports and also offers tailored reports designed specifically for TCU. Since the Concur platform is customized to align with TCU's needs, users may find certain general Intelligence reports less applicable to their requirements. Concur Intelligence allows users to retrieve information from Concur by running reports on-demand or accessing pre-generated reports. These reports may contain transaction data already posted to PeopleSoft Finance (FS8PRD), while others reports focus on transactions within Concur such as unassigned credit card transactions.

All Default Approvers have access to the Concur Intelligence Reporting module. However, To generate reports for a specific division or department, it's necessary to act as the respective division or department head to access all data. 

The BI Manager (Default Approver) role is designed to allow increasingly higher tiers of management a wider access to employee reporting data. The report visibility is limited to users within their hierarchy in HR. This default reporting security ensures visibility only for oneself and those under their hierarchy. For instance, consider the organizational chart below illustrating how visibility is allocated:

  • Employees 1, 2, and 3 define Manager 1 as their BI Manager, allowing Manager 1 Concur Intelligence access to Concur reporting data for employees 1-3 (plus their own reporting data).
  • Employees 4 and 5 define Manager 2 as their BI Manager, allowing Manager 2 Concur Intelligence access to Concur reporting data for employees 4 and 5 (plus their own reporting data).
  • Managers 1 and 2 define Director 1 as their BI Manager, allowing Director 1 Concur Intelligence access to their Concur reporting data, plus access to reporting data for Employees 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 (plus their own reporting data).
