My company uses Concur and it seems that a flight goes from "green" to "yellow" when the price of the ticket is about $100 more than the cheapest flight. But, we are allowed to spend up to $200 more if it's a direct flight. We are also allowed to book in J if it's international and the flight is over 8 hours. I don't fly internationally for work though.
