Mileage Reimbursement is a way for employers to compensate their employees for work-related travel with a rate per kilometer/mile. Generally, this is applied for using their personal vehicles for work-related travel.
Mileage claims can be added via web and mobile. Mileage rates are predefined in the settings and based on company and government rules (the setup is done per branch/ entity).
