What is the use of Daily Mileage in a Fleet App?

Daily mileage is used for keeping track of the starting mileage and ending mileage of a vehicle and the start and end of a day. With this feature of Simply Fleet, you can know the distance driven by a vehicle each day.

In a Fleet Management app can I make it mandatory for my operator to fill out Daily Mileage?

Yes, you can do this from the Organization Settings screen in the Simply Fleet app. You can select a time when you would want the operator to fill out the Daily Mileage. If you’ve made it mandatory for the operator to fill this out, and he does not fill it out, the admin and his manager get a notification on the web as well as the mobile app.

Daily Mileage

With the Daily Mileage feature, the driver is required to input the starting odometer of the vehicle and ending odometer value in the app in the beginning and end of the day. Using this feature, you can easily monitor how many miles each vehicle drives per day, helping you to better plan out maintenance schedules, fuel consumption, and other important aspects of running a business. This can also be obtained with telematics integration of connected assets.

Trip logging

Using trip logging, your driver can log the start and end of a trip. He can additionally add any expenses incurred, fill-ups, income and receipt if any in the trip detail.

Increase Fuel Efficiency

Businesses aren't required to track mileage for income tax purposes. However, the IRS allows businesses that do track mileage to claim a mileage deduction, and businesses can also claim actual expenses incurred from the business use of their vehicles, which helps them save money when tax time comes around.
