Hotel Expense - Itemization

[afarrington]

Hello,

I recently noticed that Concur is automatically itemizing hotel expenses. I do not want Concur to itemize each hotel charge, is this a new feature or an update of some kind? Has anyone had experience with Concur automatically itemizing an expense, even if you don't want it to? Any suggestions?

Thank you!

Is there any plan to address this? It makes no sense, why is it only the hotel expenses as it is additional taxes on the receipt and the final bill matches correctly. Only some do this in my company not all

@MW Concur auto-itemizes in two situations: 1. If the user takes a picture of their hotel receipt using ExpenseIt and 2. If the credit card used to make the purchase has e-receipts activated by the user. 

It is only the hotel expense because it is the main expense type that has additional charges that make up the total bill. A majority of our customers require hotel itemization, so we have the auto-itemize feature to help users have less clicks and save them time.

Hello Kevin,

How do I turn off the hotel itemized part as our company and as I’m finding that I am the only person get this. 

Thank you.

@MW Here is what I found below. Let me know if you have any questions. If you are not on our Professional platform and are using a Standard configuration, you would simply go to the Expense Types for Expenses screen and change the Spend Category of the Hotel expense type to Lodging instead of Lodging - Track Hotel Spend.
