records showing yet.
There are five sections to this screen: My Information, Daily Mileage, Parking, Meals, and
Misc Expenses.

2. My Information and Daily Mileage
“My Information”-
Use the magnifying glass icon to the right of the field to look up your supervisor’s
name. A pop-up box will appear.
Use the alphabet bar at the top to find your supervisor’s name. Note: Relationals sorts
people alphabetically according to first name. i.e. To find Bryan Peskin, click on the “B” on
the alphabet bar. It takes you to a list of all users whose first name starts with “B.”
Click on your supervisor’s name.

4. Adding another record
Now you must make a new entry for each day of the week that you incurred expenses by
following the steps on the next pages.
There are three ways you can create the next day’s expense entry:
“Mileage and Expense” tab- Click on the tab at the top of your screen. If you choose this
option, go back to page one of this guide and follow the steps again.
“New” tab- Click on the drop-down list on the left hand side of your screen and select
“Mileage and Expense.” If you choose this option, it will open up a new record for you and
you can go back to page 2 of this guide and follow the steps starting from there. This is a
short cut and cuts out a couple of steps.
Note: If you had expenses other than mileage on any given day, I would use option #1or
option #2 above. However, if you only incurred Mileage, there is an even faster short cut to
use.
“Clone” button- If you click here, it will create a brand new entry exactly like the one you just
created. This is a time saving short cut. See below for how this will appear:
Note, it is the same as the screen above; however the fields are “open” so you can edit them.

Leave the fields in the red box alone; these will
stay consistent from one record to the next.

5. Adding another record
Any field not contained in the red box shown on the previous page needs to be updated
with the next day’s information. Start with step #6 on page 2 of this handout and fill in the
appropriate:
Date Mileage or Expense Occurred:
Odometer Start
Odometer End
Places Visited
Click “Save”

Use one of the three choices on the previous page for adding a new record for each day of
the week that you need reimbursement for.
When you are finished adding all of your expenses for the week, follow the steps below to
print you expense report
Printing your Expense Report
“Reports”- Click on the tab at the top of your screen, it will take you to the screen below:
There are two to choose from. If you do your expenses at the beginning of the week
following the week the expenses occurred, i.e. you’re too tired to do it on Friday at the end of
the day and you just want to go home, use the first report:
My Mileage and Expense Report – Last Week (use when printing on Monday)
If you do your expenses on Friday at the end of the day in the week they occurred and you
print your report on Friday before going home for the weekend, use the second report:
My Mileage and Expense Report – This Week (use when printing on Friday)

Note: If you cloned a record where you
entered information in any of the following
fields: “Parking,” “Meals,” or “Misc.
Expenses”, you will need to delete that
information or update it at this time!
