WORK VEHICLES and PERSONAL USE

Many companies allow their employees to take the work vehicle home and use them for personal use.

The problem that the employer has is how to separate the work mileage from the pleasure when claiming on their company tax returns.

In the PRE- GPS TRACKING era, we used to write down the mileage and use in a book. These LOG BOOKS were not always up to date and could easily be doctored. This meant that they basically were not an accuate accounting / log of the vehicle use.

GPS TRACKING CENTRE now has the answer. We have added another report function to our ever growing REPORTS list.

2016- Welcome in the “WORKING HOURS SUMMARY” report.

In this report section, you can pre-set the work days and hours. Anything else is Personal time.

In the report that is generated, you will get WORKING TIME and Mileage and NON WORKING TIME and Mileage, all broken down into each day of the week.

We have enclosed a screen shot of the report information that you will see:
