How do I reimburse an employee for mileage using the QBO mileage tracker? The mileage all gets tracked, no problem. But reimbursement isn't obvious at all....

Hello rock3, 

I know how important it is to be able to reimburse your employees for any costs they incur as they conduct their daily duties. Mileage is a common reimbursement that employers will give out, and it's important that this is recorded properly. I'll explain how you can record an employee reimbursement, and how this relates to the Mileage Tracking feature. 

You won't reimburse your employee using the Mileage Tracking feature. Instead, you're going to use the data that you've tracked with the Mileage tool in order to issue a reimbursement by setting up your employee as a supplier, then creating a billable expense. 

Follow the steps in this article to record a reimbursement: Reimburse an employee. This article will explain how to pay back your employee for a business-related expense. 

If you have any other questions, please feel free to reach out to our tech support team. 

Cheers.

I see what you mean now. I agree and I think this feature would add so much convenience to the Mileage Tracking feature. For now the feature is just used to keep track of your miles, and doesn't come stocked with any reports. 

I'm definitely going to be passing this along to our product development team, because I think it's an awesome idea! I'd encourage you to submit the feedback on your end as well, by clicking the Gear icon > Feedback. We're always trying to innovate and improve.
