If you need to manage your trips to submit a business mileage claim – you can do this all very quickly from the ‘Trips’ menu in the app.
Open the ‘Trips’ menu in the Driver app.
The trip list will show all trips driven within a certain period by you in your vehicle listed most recent first – You can filter the list using the calendar in the top left or the Filter icon.
Each trip will contain the start and end location, the time, the distance and whether the trip is business or private.
Note: Trips are privacy compliant. The general rule is:
When driving a car owned by the company, your trip list is visible to your admin.
When driving a privately owned car your trip list is not visible to your admin until you have submitted a business mileage claim – after which only your business trips will be visible to them.
When managing your trip list, you want to ensure all business and private trips are marked accordingly. You can change them in several ways – press the ‘Edit’ button, tap the B or P, press and hold the trip or click to open the trip on a map.
To be tax compliant, a business trip must contain a purpose. If the purpose is missing, it will be highlighted in red. You can add or change a purpose the same way you switch from business to private.
