How do I add a trip manually?
The + Trip button in the bottom bar opens the Add manual trip form: a trip missing from your calendar is recorded in a few fields, and its miles are calculated for you.
- Click + Trip.
- Fill in the Date and the Time.
- For the Departure Location, choose My Addresses (your default address is preselected) or Manual Entry.
- Type the Arrival with autocomplete, choose the Vehicle and enter the Purpose of the trip.
- Set the Trip type: Business or Charitable. Each type has its own IRS standard mileage rate.
- Check Round Trip if you came back to the starting point.
- Click Save.
The trip appears in the list with its miles. The Manual Entry filter, in the calendar list, shows only the trips entered by hand.
The fastest way is still to dictate it: the Dicter button accepts a sentence like "Yesterday, round trip from home to Austin to see a client" and fills in the form for you.
