Documentation habits auditors like
Tax rules for business mileage change by country and entity type — this sheet is a recordkeeping aid, not tax advice. The winning habit is writing purpose the same day as the drive so you are not guessing months later.
Business % covers blended trips: estimate the work portion honestly and note methodology in Notes if an auditor asks. Rounding all trips to whole miles is fine if you are consistent.
- Carry forward closing odometer as the next row’s start to catch entry errors.
- Pair with app exports if you use both — the paper log explains anomalies.
