Android/iPhone/iPad – (North American Data Centre) ** Planned Changes** Retirement of Real Time Alert for AMEX Corporate Card (Jan 2022)

ExpenseIt clients in the North American data centre using the U.S.-based AMEX corporate card in the SAP Concur mobile app will no longer have the use of the Real Time Alert (RTA) feature. This feature, which notifies the card user whenever their card is charged, displays a reminder to take a picture of the receipt for the charge.

WHY THIS FEATURE IS BEING RETIRED

The RTA feature is useful as a reminder for our clients, but adoption by users has dropped off significantly. At the same time, additional features, such as smart matching of card, e-receipt and paper receipt capture fulfill a similar business value. Additionally, retiring the RTA feature opens opportunities for additional feature work that will benefit the client in other areas of the product.

Business Purpose/Client Benefit: This feature retirement allows development of additional features for ExpenseIt in the SAP Concur Mobile app.
