eBiz – Set up Concur Default Cost Center
Objective
The purpose of this document is to guide CFAOs and planning unit staff through the process of managing default cost centers in Concur for individuals in their planning unit.
Default Cost Centers within the Concur application allow users to have the same cost center populate in the header of reports each time. If the user needs to use an alternative cost center, they are able to change that within their Concur report.
