How Mileage Tracking Works

Updoot's mileage tracking lives right alongside time cards, so employees log miles as part of the same entry they're already filling out for hours worked.

1

Log the Trip

Enter mileage directly on a time card entry, tied to the job, client, or project the trip was for.

2

Review and Approve

Managers review mileage the same way they review hours, catching errors before it goes to reimbursement.

3

Export for Reimbursement

Approved mileage exports alongside hours, ready to hand off for payroll or reimbursement.

Mileage Entry on the Time Card

One entry for hours and miles, not two separate systems.

Employee time card screen showing where mileage is entered

Instead of a separate mileage app or a paper log that gets filled out days later from memory, employees log miles right on the same time card entry where they're already tracking hours.

Each trip gets tied to the job, client, or project it was driven for, so mileage isn't just a number, it's connected to the work it actually supports.

Because it's logged in the moment alongside the time entry, mileage records stay more accurate than trying to reconstruct a week of driving from memory at the end of a pay period.

Manager Review and Approval

Mileage reviewed the same way hours already are.

Managers review and approve mileage entries as part of the same time card approval process, so there's no separate mileage report to chase down or reconcile after the fact.

Approval can also optionally be set up at the employee level, so specific employees are required to have their hours and mileage approved before they're finalized.

Because mileage and hours are reviewed together, there's one clear approval step instead of two disconnected processes running in parallel.

Mileage Reporting and Export

A clean, exportable record for reimbursement or taxes.

Admin screen showing manager approval and mileage export

Approved mileage rolls up into reporting alongside hours, giving you a clear record of miles driven by employee, job, or time period without pulling data from a separate app.

That record exports right along with payroll-ready hours, so reimbursement doesn't require a second export or a manual reconciliation step.

Whether it's for reimbursing employees or documenting mileage for tax purposes, the record is already organized and ready to hand off.

Mileage Tracking Software Built Into the Time Card, Not a Separate App

Mileage tracking usually lives somewhere disconnected from everything else, a separate app, a paper log kept in the glove box, or a spreadsheet someone updates from memory once a week. By the time it's reviewed, half the trips are estimated and the other half are missing entirely.

Updoot logs mileage right on the same time card entry employees are already filling out for hours worked. It's manual, entered by the employee at the time of the trip, and tied to the job or client it was driven for, so there's no separate system to maintain.

Because mileage and hours are reviewed together, managers get one approval process instead of chasing down a mileage report that's disconnected from payroll.

The result is a mileage record that's more accurate because it's logged close to when the trip actually happened, and easier to manage because it's part of the same time tracking your team already uses every day.
