Adding a Personal Vehicle to claim Mileage Expense

When you want to claim mileage, the first thing you need to do is set up a vehicle.

Open your Profile (top left corner of the screen) and click on “Profile Settings”:

Then click “Personal Car” on the left-hand menu, and click the “New” button to add a new vehicle and enter the license plate no. of the vehicle:

Next, select the appropriate “Vehicle Type” depending on your requirements (below) and save:

Next, open a new or existing expense report, and add a new expense  select “Personal Car Mileage” as the expense type. Fill in the expense details:

  • Date of Travel
  • To/From Locations
  • Distance in KM
  • GST/HST Amount = 0.00

At the bottom of the expense details window, select the car that you added in the previous step. Based on the “Vehicle Type” selected, and the distance of your travel, the amount will calculate.

E.g. 100 km at the Standard MakeWay Org Rate of $0.55/km = $55

Save the expense.

Receipts are not required for mileage claims; however, you may attach back-up documentation if necessary to support your claim by clicking the “Attach Receipt” button like any other expense.
