Track mileage

Open this in Talisk HQ

Keep a CRA-ready record of business driving:

  1. Go to Ledger › Expenses › Mileage and use Log a trip.
  2. Enter the date, distance in kilometres, and purpose (and, if it's for a job, mark it billable to that job).

Talisk applies the CRA per-kilometre rate for that year (including the lower tier once you pass 5,000 km) and totals your deduction. Export it as a CSV for your accountant, or bill a job's trips onto an invoice.

Mileage is a logbook, not a ledger posting: it feeds the CRA report and your job billing, but it doesn't create a journal entry, so it won't show up on your Profit & Loss. Once a trip has been billed to a job, it's locked from editing.

Good to know: Mileage is a CRA per-kilometre logbook: it does not post a journal entry, so trips won't appear in your P&L or general ledger. The deduction comes out through the mileage report and CSV, and a trip billed to a job can't be edited afterward.
