Overview
The Mileage Tracker for Quicken Business & Personal makes it super easy to track your mileage for both business and personal purposes. This can help you stay prepared for tax time!
How Does It Work?
There are two methods for logging miles:
Trip details: Log individual trips by entering the start and end locations and the distance traveled.
Miles only: Enter your total miles driven in one simple step — perfect if you’ve been tracking miles elsewhere.
Once miles have been logged, you will be able to see a list of all entries, along with a running total at the top.
You will also be able to see the total distance for all of your trips.
You will see totals per business or for personal.
The totals are calculated using the current IRS mileage rate.
You can filter by business or personal to focus on the miles that matter.
You can use the time period filter to focus on specific time ranges.
