Adding Mileage

I recognize your need to enter the job number or client name for efficiency when entering mileage, hgivler.

With the advanced mileage tracking experience, you'll select the job number or client name instead of entering them directly from its designated field. Therefore, I recommend sending feedback directly to our product engineers. They will collect your ideas and potentially integrate them into upcoming updates to ensure that the product can cater to various business requirements in the future.

Here's how: 

1. Proceed to the Help option, then select Send Feedback Online.
2. Choose Product Suggestion and enter your product insights when the pop-up window displays.
3. Click Send Feedback.

Moreover, the pop-up message about copying existing data will appear if you already have mileage data, which can be gone once you've signed in to your Intuit Account. For more information, refer to this article: Set up mileage tracking in QuickBooks Desktop.

On the other hand, you can generate and customize various mileage reports to gather insights from your mileage expenses for each vehicle or job you have.

I'm here to help if you have any other concerns in the future regarding entering mileage in QuickBooks Desktop. Consider notifying me by leaving a reply below.

The update to the mileage tracking is horrible. The other thing I noticed is when you add mileage manually, it automatically approves it. If you make an entry error you can't correct it. Not every business approves mileage in advance. We are a service company. Emergencies happen. We have a process that works. QB has done a fabulous job of making my job worse.

I have sent feedback to QB. I have in the past. They don't do a thing about it or respond. I don't foresee this issue getting resolved any time soon. Nor will I hear back from anyone. I regret upgrading to 2024. It has more problems than it was worth.
