I'm curious. In the Quickbooks Self-Employed app for tracking mileage, if you have auto-tracking turned off, it says the start and end address is optional. Is that true?

Hey jarboe35,

 

Mileage tracking is one of the most powerful and beneficial features of QuickBooks Self-Employed. Keeping accurate logs really pays off in tax season, and ensures you're maximizing your deductions. QuickBooks is all about empowering you to take charge of your books, and is designed to simplify the bookkeeping of our small business and self-employed users. I'll be happy to help get this sorted.

 

Your observation is correct - the addresses are optional. Any trip can be saved as long as the kilometers, purpose of trip, and vehicle are entered. It's recommended to include as many details as possible for your trips, as this will make it simpler to claim the deduction, but you can easily track any trip without specifying the addresses.

 

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
