You will need to ask your SAP/Concur administrator on this one. Typically this question is related to how the internal accounting is setup and that’s different for every company.
Often “indirect” travel means its getting charged to an overhead account. “Direct” would mean it’s being charge directly to a client or a project. Which one it is depends on your reason for travel and how it’s getting paid.
If you can’t get a hold of an admin, you should study all available manuals and documentation first. You can also ask a trusted colleague that has traveled before. You can also try to call Concur directly but they may not know either and the’ll charge for every call.
If all else fails and you can’t wait, just pick one and send an e-mail to your SAP admins with the details of what you did and why. If it turns out to be wrong, in most cases any accounting issue can be fixed later without too much trouble.
