Expense Transactions Managing Expense Types
If your company uses the Expense features of Concur's mobile app, your users can
create, edit, and delete mobile expenses. By default, all of the expense types that
are available in the Web-based version of Concur are available on the mobile device.
Since that list may be cumbersome, consider abbreviating the list of expense types
to those that are more appropriate for use on mobile devices.
To do so, contact Concur Client Support.
Clearing Data on a User's Device; Lost Device; Reset PINs

Minimal information is stored locally on the mobile device, for example, information
entered off-line is stored until the app reconnects to the Internet and syncs with
Concur. Credit card information is never stored on the mobile device.
If a user loses a mobile device (with Concur's mobile app installed), the user should
immediately change his/her mobile PIN using the Web-based version of Concur. To
do so, the user accesses Profile > Mobile Registration, enters and verifies the PIN,
and selects Update/Create Mobile
PIN.
In addition, the company's User
Administrator should wipe the data
off the mobile device. If the
Remote wipe mobile device flag
is set, the next time a user logs in
to the mobile app (either through
manual login or auto-login), all
mobile data will be cleared from the
device.
Administrators can also use this
option to re-set a user's PIN.
