How to set Mileage Reimbursement Rates

There are two places within Expense IT where the mileage reimbursement rate is accessible.

The first place is within the preferences, and is accessible via the front screen by selecting the menu button->More->Preferences->Reimbursement Rate.  This field is currently defaulting to 0.555.  The setting within this field will be the default reimbursement rate for all jobs created in the future.  It is important to note that existing jobs will not be impacted by this change, only future jobs.

The second place is within each individual job.  If you long press on a job within the job list (main screen), you can select “Edit Job” to arrive at the job editor.  Here, you will see the actual “Mileage Rate” that is going to be used to calculate the value of the mileage recorded within that job.  Setting the value here will have no impact on other jobs, but will change the mileage rate that is applied to all existing and future mileage entries for that job.
