If your company runs travel and expenses in SAP Concur and you need approvals, policy checks and reimbursements, stay on Concur. If you're a freelancer or a small team and the real job is turning receipts into spreadsheet rows, a smaller tool fits better, and that job ends in one CSV.
Here is what Concur's receipt scanner does, how it's billed, and where Slipsheet differs.
What Concur's receipt scanner is
Concur's receipt reader is called ExpenseIt. According to Concur's ExpenseIt page, you use it on the web or in the SAP Concur mobile app for iOS and Android. It picks out data like the amount, date and location, then categorizes and itemizes the expense. Each receipt picture is attached to an expense line item, so managers can review and approve the claim.
That last part is the point of ExpenseIt. The output is not a spreadsheet row. It is an expense line item inside Concur Expense, and the next step is an expense report.
How Concur bills for it
Concur prices by the expense report, not by the receipt or the seat. As of October 2026, Concur's pricing page lists:
- Base: starting at $7 per report, unlimited users, Concur Expense.
- Plus: starting at $11 per report, unlimited users, Concur Expense with ExpenseIt, User Support Desk and Reporting.
- Premium: custom pricing, adding Concur Travel and more.
Concur notes that price can vary based on monthly commitment. The detail that matters for receipts: ExpenseIt is listed on Plus and Premium, not on Base. If you priced Concur for a three-person team because you wanted receipt reading, that's the plan you'd be looking at.
Where a receipt ends up
| SAP Concur (ExpenseIt) | Slipsheet | |
|---|---|---|
| How you send a receipt | The SAP Concur mobile app or Concur Expense on the web | Upload a JPG, PNG, HEIC or PDF on the web, or forward an email with receipt attachments on a paid plan |
| What gets pulled out | Data like amount, date and location; the expense is categorized and itemized | Date, merchant, total, currency and tax, plus category, client_tag and notes you can edit |
| Where it lands | An expense line item in Concur Expense, with the receipt image attached | One row per receipt, exported in one CSV |
| What you do next | Add it to an expense report for approval | Open the CSV in Excel or Google Sheets, or import it into QuickBooks or Xero |
| How it's billed | Per expense report: Plus starts at $11, Base at $7 without ExpenseIt, Premium is custom | Per month: Starter $5, Pro $12 |
| Approvals and policy | Yes | No |

Stay on Concur if
- Your company already runs travel and expense in Concur.
- You need approvals and policy checks before money moves.
- Employees get reimbursed through the system.
- Expenses have to post into your ERP.
You need a smaller tool if
- You work solo or on a small team.
- The job is receipts into rows you can sum, filter and hand to a bookkeeper.
- Nobody approves anything; there is no report queue.
What Slipsheet does instead
Slipsheet takes receipt photos, PDFs and forwarded emails and makes one row per receipt. You upload JPG, PNG, HEIC or PDF files on the web, or, on a paid plan, forward receipt emails with the files attached. You check each row and fix anything before it goes into an export.
The export is one CSV named slipsheet-YYYYMMDD.csv, with nine columns: date, merchant, total_amount, currency, tax_amount, category, client_tag, notes, file_name. It opens in Excel or Google Sheets, and QuickBooks and Xero take it through their CSV import. Google Sheets sync is on Pro. Excel and OneDrive sync are coming soon; today Excel gets the CSV. The column walkthrough explains each field, and this guide covers the receipts to spreadsheet job in general.
If you consult for a client who runs Concur, use client_tag for the client or job. Slipsheet has no Concur import, connection or sync, so if you still file in Concur, that upload is yours to do.
What the export looks like (example data)
| date | merchant | total_amount | currency | tax_amount | category | client_tag | notes | file_name |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-04-03 | Amazon Web Services | 428.17 | USD | 0.00 | Software | monthly hosting | 01-aws.png | |
| 2026-04-14 | Adobe Inc | 59.99 | USD | 5.25 | Software | Creative Cloud | 03-adobe.png | |
| 2026-04-22 | Uber Technologies | 24.83 | USD | 2.15 | Travel | Client A | to client site | 05-uber.png |
| 2026-05-12 | Home Depot | 156.88 | USD | 12.91 | Supplies | Client B | install job | 10-homedepot.png |
| 2026-05-21 | Zuni Cafe | 148.72 | USD | 12.24 | Meals | Client A | client dinner | 12-zuni.png |
These five rows are example data. Dates, merchants, totals and tax come from a synthetic receipt test set; category, client_tag and notes are illustrative. The totals add up to 818.59, with 32.55 in tax.
What Slipsheet doesn't do
No approvals, reimbursements, card feeds, mileage or policy rules. No NetSuite connection and no two-way sync with any accounting system. One receipt is one row, and the CSV is yours.
Starter is $5/mo for up to 250 receipts. Pro is $12/mo for up to 1,500 receipts plus Google Sheets sync. Yearly plans are $50 and $120. Both start with a 14-day free trial, no card needed. Try Slipsheet.
FAQ
Does Concur's basic plan read receipts?
Not according to Concur's pricing page as of October 2026. ExpenseIt, the receipt reader, is listed on the Plus plan, starting at $11 per report, and on Premium. The Base plan, starting at $7 per report, lists Concur Expense without ExpenseIt.
Is there a Concur alternative that works with NetSuite?
Not Slipsheet. It has no NetSuite connection and no two-way sync with any accounting or ERP system; it exports a CSV. If two-way ERP sync is a requirement, that is a job for full expense management software.
Can I get Concur-style receipt capture without expense reports?
Yes, if what you need is rows. Slipsheet turns each uploaded or forwarded receipt into one row you check, then exports them in one CSV. There is no report to build or submit.
What columns do I get from Slipsheet?
Nine, always in this order: date, merchant, total_amount, currency, tax_amount, category, client_tag, notes and file_name. The file is named slipsheet-YYYYMMDD.csv.
