Mileage Rules
Where we give some idea of how things work
- A completed mileage record consists of a record with a starting destination and an ending destination and a date.
- If the travel date is not entered by you, it will default to today’s date.
- The app returns an email record of completed mileage for you to review.
- If you are entering mileage one destination at a time, the app looks in the rear view for the immediately preceding entry to find its mileage record starting point. For instance, if you create a mileage record today as ‘Simon, I’m going home’, and then create a record as ‘Simon, I’m going to Wrigley Field in Chicago,’ this results in a completed mileage record from your home to Wrigley Field with a Travel Date matching the actual date when you submitted the Wrigley Field record. Go, Cubs!
t there are some other ways to build Mileage records by speaking, but this is by far the easiest and best to use.
- The lookback period for prior records is 3 days. If there is no record in that window, you have an incomplete mileage record.
- We will return the incomplete record with guidance asking for the starting point. Fill in that blank, and return the record.
- Sometimes, talk-to-text… you know, sometimes it sucks, and so you end up with a bad mileage record. You can use the fields on the review – fix start and fix end – to do just that. Provide a new and different start or end location; return the updated record.
- When you fix a start or fix an end, the related mileage record is also changed. (We’d love to show you a picture of what this looks like because we know you don’t have time for a million words. We’re working on it.)
