Trips overview

Trips give you extensive search functionality for all business trips taken by your fleet. For privacy reasons, private trips will not appear in the list and business trips taken by private vehicles will not appear until the driver has submitted their digital mileage claim (aka triplog) or the driver has allowed for unsubmitted business trips to be visible to the administrator.
