Groupize has
integrated with Concur's Third-Party Meetings. The simple meetings app also now
uses the Concur Travel Profile 2.0 application programming interface for
two-way data integration. Concur will discontinue its own Concur Meetings on
Jan. 1, 2018, and has advised all Concur Meetings clients to partner with an
integrated provider.
Groupize's Third-Party
Meetings integration allows joint Groupize/Concur clients to bring together a Groupize
registration site and a Concur booking session specific to that event with
single sign-on and autofill to complete bookings for travelers who have
profiles in Concur. It also offers capabilities like setting travel policy and
rules at the event level and allowing for guest travelers. Additionally, the
tighter integration enables Groupize bots to crawl Concur to find registered
attendees who have not booked air tickets and automate reminder messages to
prompt a booking.
Groupize Meetings matches attendees at the Concur profile level whether bookings were made by employees or via the travel
management company. Travel managers can track travel for all meetings, whether
attendees actually registered for a meeting or an
administrator uploaded a list of known participants. In the latter case, Groupize will automatch with
profiles in Concur and pull back associated itineraries and spend.
