Automated Mileage Reimbursement Processing
Process mileage expenses in minutes instead of managing spreadsheets.
Nora tracks employee mileage submissions (via form, photo, or CSV), calculates IRS-approved reimbursement (current rate: $0.70/mile), and generates reimbursement expense entries in QuickBooks.
Sales reps and field staff submit mileage via a simple web form or photo of their odometer. Nora extracts trip details (start/end mileage, date, purpose), validates the data, and calculates reimbursement using the current IRS standard mileage rate ($0.67 for 2024). It deduplicates identical trips and flags suspicious patterns (1,000+ miles in a day). Approved mileage is batched into a single monthly reimbursement expense in QuickBooks, and a summary is emailed to HR for processing. This eliminates spreadsheet chaos and ensures compliance with IRS rules. Companies report 100% of mileage properly tracked vs. ~60% before, and 2 hours/month saved in manual entry.
