                        Report of Independent Auditors

Retirement Committee
Concur Technologies, Inc. 401(k) Plan

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets available for benefits of
Concur Technologies, Inc. 401(k) Plan as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the
related statement of changes in assets available for benefits for the year ended
December 31, 1999. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the assets available for benefits of the Plan at December
31, 1999 and 1998, and the changes in its assets available for benefits for the
year ended December 31, 1999, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial
statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedule of assets
held for investment purposes at end of year as of December 31, 1999 is presented
for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial
statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of
Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the
responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the financial
statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in
relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

1.  Description of the Plan

The following description of the Concur Technologies, Inc. 401(k) Plan (the
Plan) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan
document for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.

General

The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all employees of Concur
Technologies, Inc. (the Company). The Plan is subject to the provisions of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

Eligibility

All employees of the Company not subject to a collective bargaining agreement
are eligible to participate in the Plan.

Contributions

Participants may elect to defer and contribute up to 20% of their pretax annual
compensation, as defined in the Plan document, subject to approval of the Plan
administrator. Participants may also contribute amounts representing rollover
distributions from other qualified plans. Company contributions, if any, are at
the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors. The Company did not
contribute to the Plan during 1999. Upon enrollment, a participant may direct
employee and employer contributions in whole percentage increments to any of the
Plan's fund options. Participants may change their investment options at any
time.

Participant Accounts

Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contributions,
allocations of the Company's contributions, if any, forfeitures of unvested
balances of terminated participants, and Plan earnings. Company contributions
and forfeitures are allocated to participants' accounts based on participants'
compensation compared to overall Company compensation. The benefit to which a
participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the
participant's vested individual account.

                                                                               4

                   Notes to Financial Statements (continued)


1.  Description of the Plan (continued)

Vesting

Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus actual earnings
thereon. Vesting in the Company's contributions portion of their accounts plus
actual earnings thereon is based on the number of years of continuous service,
as defined by the Plan document. A participant is 100% vested in Company
contributions after three years of credited service.

Participant Loans

Subject to the approval of the Plan administrator, participants may borrow from
their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of
$50,000 or 50% of their vested account balances. Loan transactions are treated
as a transfer from (to) the investment fund to (from) the loan fund. Loan terms
range from 1 to 5 years or up to 15 years for the purchase of a primary
residence. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant's account and
bear interest at a fixed rate which is established based on the current prime
rate plus 1% at the time of the loan. Principal and interest are paid ratably
through monthly payroll deductions and the balance of the loan can be paid in
full at any time.

Benefit Payments

Upon retirement, death, or disability, a Plan participant's account becomes
fully vested and the participant may elect to receive a benefit payment.
Benefits are generally payable as a lump-sum except in the event of a
participant's death, in which case payment to a beneficiary may be deferred for
up to five years or may be paid over the beneficiary's life expectancy. All
benefits must be paid when a participant reaches age 70-1/2. A participant may
also elect to seek a hardship withdrawal as defined in the Plan document in
certain cases of financial need. Upon severance of a participant's employment
for reasons other than death, disability, or retirement, the participant may
elect to receive a lump-sum benefit payment. The Plan requires that benefits
must be paid regardless of election if a participant's employment is terminated
prior to retirement, death, or disability, and the participant's vested benefit
under the Plan is $3,500 or less.

                                                                               5

1.  Description of the Plan (continued)

Administrative Expenses

Administrative expenses are paid by the Plan unless the Company elects to pay
such costs. The Company paid the Plan's administrative expenses in 1999.

Plan Termination

Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right
under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the
Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination,
participants will become 100% vested in their accounts.

2.  Summary of Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting

The financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.

Investment Valuation and Income Recognition

The Plan's investments are stated at fair value. The shares of mutual funds are
valued at quoted market prices which represent the net asset values of shares
held by the Plan at year-end. The participant loans are valued at their
outstanding balances, which approximate fair value.

Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest
income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-
dividend date.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates that affect the
amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

                                                                               6

2.  Summary of Accounting Policies (continued)

Reclassification

Certain amounts in the 1998 financial statements have been reclassified to
conform to the 1999 presentation.

3.  Plan Amendment

On September 22, 1999, the Plan was amended for the adoption of the stock
ownership component of the Plan. The amendment gives each participant in the
Plan the right to purchase common stock of the Company as an investment option.

4.  Plan Merger

On June 1, 1999, pursuant to a Merger Agreement dated May 31, 1999 among the
Company and Seeker Software, Inc., the Company acquired all of the outstanding
capital of Seeker Software, Inc. Subsequently, the Plan was amended to merge the
Seeker Software, Inc. 401(k) Plan (the Seeker Plan) into the Plan on September
30, 1999 and, as a result, the net assets of the Seeker Plan were transferred
into the Plan on the date of the plan merger.

5.  Investments

quoted market prices as follows:

                                                              --------------
Benefits paid to participants per the financial statements       $386,609
Add: Amounts allocated on Form 5500 to withdrawn
 participants at December 31, 1999                                118,101

                                                              --------------
Benefits paid to participants per the Form 5500                  $421,748
                                                              ==============

Amounts allocated to withdrawn participants are recorded on the Form 5500 for
benefit claims that have been processed and approved for payment prior to year-
end but not yet paid.

7.  Income Tax Status

The Plan has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service
dated October 1996, stating that the Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of
the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) and, therefore, the related trust is exempt
from taxation. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity
with the Code to maintain its qualification. The Plan administrator believes the
Plan is being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the
Code and, therefore, believes that the Plan is qualified and the related trust
is tax exempt.

                                                                               9
