WARNING 

In your reports, be sure to add the "Cost" field to display the cost per trip and the total.



ADJUSTMENT FOR MILEAGE ALREADY DONE BEFORE USING TRIPLOGIK.

The rate change is calculated from all trips included from January 1 to December 31 of a calendar year.


If you have already made trips before using the Manager, within the current year, you must adjust the second rate based on what already have accumulated in terms of business mileage ( from your old registry method)


Ex, 

You start using the TripLogik only from February 1st 2020

Your business trips between January 1 and January 31, 2020,  is equal to  1 500 Km 


Calculate:

5 000 km - 1 500 km = 3 500 km 


Since you have already accumulated 1500 Km of the 5000 Km base, your rate will change after the Manager total 3500 Km of new business trips.


For this example, you would enter 3500 Km in the "Applied after:" field

1 500 Km Not in the Manager  +   3500 KM of business trips in the Manager = 5000 Km at the base rate
All other KM in the Manager , after will use the second rate.
