Question

I'm having issues with CSV file for MileIq importing incorrectly? The dates are swapped. If its a drive I made on June 12 2024, it shows the drive as Dec 6.

It's crucial to display the correct date when importing mileage data from MileIQ to QuickBooks, theinnovative. I'll share a few options you can use to correct the format.
 
First, download the CSV file from QuickBooks to have a reference of the correct format. To proceed, go to the Mileage tab, select the Add trip drop-down menu and choose Download my trips. After that, open the downloaded file and overwrite (copy & paste) with the trip data from MileIQ. Save it then upload through Import trips.

 

Additionally, you can convert the MileIQ file to CSV via an online converter or app, then compare the format accepted by QBO before importing. Look for one by following the steps below:
 
  1. Go to the Apps menu.
  2. Select the Find apps tab.
  3. Type any keyword in the search bar or click the Browse category dropdown menu to explore various programs.
 
Alternatively, you can manually add your trips using the following steps:
 
  1. Go to the Expenses menu and select Mileage.
  2. Choose Add trip.
  3. Enter the trip date, distance, starting and ending points, purpose, and the vehicle you used.
  4. Tap Save.

 

If you haven't, you might want to explore QuickBooks Online mobile app to track business miles for one or more vehicles. Here's an article for complete details: Automatically track mileage in QuickBooks Online.

Thanks. This doesn’t solve the issue. The mileIQ csv has a start and end date.

 

the info I download from QuickBooks does not. 

the issue is that QuickBooks is picking up the day and swapping it for the month when it is uploading into the system.
