Amazon business account app connect to Concur Invoice

Our amazon business account is set-up for pay by invoice, could it be connected to Concur Invoice instead of Concur Expense?

@isilla I've not heard of anyone doing this, so I would have to say it isn't possible. Let's see if anyone else replies. You could also contact Concur Support and ask them.

Hi @isilla and @Mcannone - 

The short answer is, no, unfortunately. The Amazon Business integration with SAP Concur is designed specifically for Concur Expense, not Concur Invoice. However, there is an important configuration option relevant to your "Pay by Invoice" setup.


How Pay by Invoice Transactions Are Handled in the Amazon Business + Concur Expense Integration

The Amazon Business integration connects to Concur Expense (both Standard and Professional Editions) and automatically routes Amazon Business purchase transactions into employees' Available Expenses.

Importantly, the integration includes a payment type blocking feature that directly addresses your scenario:

"If the Pay by Invoice is moved to the Not Allowed payment category, transactions made on the connected Amazon Business site, where the payment type is Pay by Invoice, will not be posted to Concur Expense." 

This means that if your Amazon Business account is set up for Pay by Invoice, you have two options within the existing integration:

Option Description
Allow Pay by Invoice in Concur Expense Leave it in the Allowed payment category — transactions will flow into Concur Expense as normal expense entries
Block Pay by Invoice in Concur Expense Move it to the Not Allowed category — transactions will not be posted to Concur Expense

Can Pay by Invoice Transactions Be Routed to Concur Invoice Instead?

There is no standard, out-of-the-box integration between Amazon Business and Concur Invoice. The Amazon Business integration is built exclusively for Concur Expense. 

Concur Invoice is designed for supplier/vendor invoice management — capturing invoices from suppliers, matching to purchase orders, and routing through accounts payable workflows.  While Concur Invoice does integrate with ERP systems (SAP ECC, S/4HANA) for vendor invoice posting , there is no native connector between Amazon Business and Concur Invoice.

 

I hope this information is helpful. Let us know if you have any additional questions.
