Those of you who use an older version of Concur as your expense client may discover a bug when your manager travels internationally. Once you’ve entered an expense type and entered a city in another country, a box will come up on the right asking for the amount in local dollars and the exchange rate (you can get this with a little math and the actual credit card charge. It will vary by posting date).
The rub comes when you have local expenses to enter. If you’ve already entered an international expense, the exchange rate box will appear and Concur will insist that your city is international. It’s easy to get caught up in it being wrong and miss the forest for the trees, so: you don’t need to do separate reports, or worry about entering the local charges first, or even learn to speak French. Just enter “1″ for the exchange rate. It won’t mess up your accounts payable department at all.
The latest version of Concur has–mercifully–repaired this bug.
