How to keep a mileage log

Trips are entered as odometer readings, so the month has to reconcile. That is exactly what an inspector recomputes.

Steps

  1. Add your vehicles

    Registration and description. The whole fleet can be pasted from a spreadsheet under “Uvoz”.

  2. Record readings, not distances

    For each trip enter the odometer at departure and arrival, the route and the purpose, and whether it was business or private. Consecutive entries then have to agree with each other.

  3. Watch the unexplained kilometres

    The vehicle screen leads with the gap between how far the odometer moved and how far the log accounts for. A month where the odometer moved 900 km and the log explains 750 has 150 km nobody can justify.

  4. Close the period

    The business share is derived from recorded trips rather than estimated. A vehicle with no trips can be removed; after its first trip it stays, because it is then part of the log.

What you get
