SAP Concur credentials
Network uses OAuth2 to connect to SAP Concur Connector.
When you create a Concur credential an activation code is generated. Add the code to SAP Concur to connect it to your Network instance.
Note: The credentials are specific to each Network instance, so this must be done on all your Sandbox and Production instances.
Migrating existing Concur credentials
The SAP Concur Connector was updated to use OAuth2 authentication in version 22R1.1. The Network Concur Connector uses an API for Veeva OpenData downloads that SAP Concur is decommissioning on June 30, 2022.
Existing customers aree automatically migrated to use OAuth2 authentication. On the Concur Connector configuration, the Concur Credential displays the OAuth2 authentication credential.
Audit
When the migration to OAth2 occurs, it is automatically logged in the System Audit Log.
To review the migration in the log, look for ConcurOAuth2Migration in the Event Description column. The New Value is 10 the Old Value is 1.
