SAP adds new automation features to Joule in SAP Concur solutions:

• A new integration between Joule and Microsoft 365 Copilot integrates travel and expense management tasks directly into common work tools. Employees can use it to create and submit travel expense reports, upload receipts, book travel, and receive travel policy alerts in SAP Concur solutions without leaving Microsoft applications. The solution is now available.

• Two new Joule agents simplify travel expense compliance and reporting.

• The Expense Automation Agent creates and fills travel expense reports automatically. Employees just have to check, adapt and submit them.

• The Expense Pre-Submit Audit Agent checks receipts before employees submit their travel expense reports and immediately points out any discrepancies. This means that invoices are rejected less often and refunds are paid out more quickly.

• Both agents are available through the SAP Early Adopter Care program. General availability is planned for later this year.
