SAP Cloud Platform Integration to Concur FTP Server

[former_member221910]

My customer wants to use SCP PI to send the encrypted employee data to Concur FTP server after extraction from the HR system. Has anyone done it before?

Hi Majed,

Yes I have integrated SAP HR with Concur Travel profile. For that we have built a custom program in SAP HR, which was generating text file in 350 format. Then generated file was picked up by middleware and uploaded to SAP Concur FTP server.

You can probably build that on webservices as well, but effort was significantly lower to do it via text file, so we decided not to implement it via APIs.

Dear Way,

Which HR system are you using? SAP HR? In that case you can use Native integration to generate 305 record (for that you don't need to go through FTP) and if you use travel you will need to have a program to generate 350 record. In that scenario you can use CPI to either generate the file or integrate with Concur APIs directly.

This blog post gives a little bit more details about custom development in CPI for Concur:

Hi Julius, was wondering if you have successfully integrated SAP HR with SAP Concur travel profile (350)?

If yes, would appreciate if you can share the approach you went with. Thank you.
