Hey Canadiana! Have you considered FleetSharp Tracker Devices?
FleetSharp offers a variety of reports including statistics like engine diagnostics, safety reports, idling reports, route replays, and mileage! Maybe this might simplify your process without having to have your employees submit weekly reports?
I'm curious to hear from other community members as well.

Hi Julie,
We did look at Fleet Tracker and it looks great, however it looks like it only works with a device that is installed in the vehicle. However all of our employees use their personal vehicles for work and are reimbursed mileage. So the option of installing a device in their personal vehicle is not an option.
Since Jobber already tracks their timesheets with GPS tracking using their mobile phones, we were hoping there was an easier way that we can track mileage in jobber without having to use another app outside of Jobber like MileIQ.
I am curious to hear how other community members handle this as well?
Thanks for your feedback :)

Hello! I have this same situation. We have a starting location and have precalculated the mileage from the start location to the client. Also, we have mileages for client to client and back to our starting point. These are tracked and stored using an excel sheet. The employee then gets paid for their calculated travel for their work week. It is expected they start at our base location and go client to client. Pay in our state is not required if they start from another location and go to their first client. It is also not required in our state to pay mileage reimbursement. It is just something we do.
