What is an E-Receipt? 

The term e-receipt refers to an electronic receipt sent directly to Concur.  E-receipts provide full invoice details directly from the supplier.  Concur has partnered with most airlines, as well as major hotels and car rental companies to provide e-receipt data directly into Concur, eliminating the need for scanned paper receipts for eligible purchases. Individuals are strongly encouraged to enable e-receipts in their Concur profile before booking travel. Follow the steps below to activate e-receipts.

From the Concur Home Page:

After enabling e-receipts, in your Available Expenses you will see the e-receipt icon next to e-receipt eligible expenses. Select or hover over the icon to view the e-receipt. Your SSC will use this receipt as documentation while reconciling the expense. Even when utilizing e-receipts, it is best practice to keep copies of your receipt as backup.
