MileIQ CSV upload issue self-employed

Hi,

 

I've been having an issue for a while trying to upload my MileIQ files to quickbooks, I've been through agents on quickbooks and mileiq and still not much help.

 

So I get my monthly report of my tracked miles through MileIQ which is sent as a XLS file then I have to convert it to CSV for Quickbooks which doesn't upload and I get the https://uk.selfemployed.intuit.com/secure/mileIq/import: 400 OK error

then I got sent a format from the Quickbooks agent which uploads successfully but doesn't include any of my destinations and when I try to add different dates for my different monthly reports it removes half of them as duplicates.

I tried speaking to MileIQ to see if they can send me a straight CSV format for Quickbooks but apparently that is only available to US customers. So I'm pretty stuck on what I can do here any advice would be appreciated.

 

Cheers

Hello there, jacksalvage.

 

Our product engineers are currently investigating about the 400 OK error when importing miles into QuickBooks Self-Employed. They are working to identify the cause and looking for a resolution to this issue.

 

I'd suggest getting in touch with us again so we can add your account to the notification list. Updates are sent via email. To contact support, check out this link.

 

Meantime, you can add your miles manually. Let me show you how:

  1. Select the Miles menu and click Add trip at the upper-right.
  2. Enter the distance in the Add miles field.
  3. Add the details and select Save.

Thanks for your patience while we are continually working on resolving this issue. If there's anything else that you need help with you can always mention me in your reply. You take care!

Agreed. I do not want to manually enter the journey history retrospectively. I might as well not have an auto tracker if im doing that. Please share a working example of a CSV file.

Hi, I am going around in circles sadly. I have deleted and re-loaded acrobat as asked. I am told that UK customers ONLY get an .xls from MileIQ so that may be a problem. Is it not possible to let me have an example .csv sheet that I can use to manually populate my mileage? If this is not possible, I will need to leave quickbooks as I need a holistic service, not one that causes me extra work...

I am sure you understand.


I hear you, @The Emporium. I share details about your mileage data.

 

As of the moment, there isn't a CSV file format to create a list of your mileage. With this, let's consider letting our product developers know about your request by sending feedback.

 

To do so:

 

  1. Sign in to your QuickBooks account.
  2. Select the Help (?) icon.
  3. Scroll down to select the Contact Us button and follow the prompts.
  4. You will be able to request a callback or start a live chat with an expert.
