Your ELD provider probably has a way to download your state mileage records for the quarter. Wouldn’t it be great to automatically import those into Q7 where you already have your fuel purchases? Enter the State Mileage Import.

Whether it’s a month or three months of data, using the state mileage import to fulfill IFTA requirements takes you less time than it does to order a pizza. Gone are the days of endlessly sifting through mileage reports, spreadsheets, and receipts. Importing data saves time and reduces the chance of human error.

Increased Efficiency and Accuracy

  • Save hours of manual data entry. Back in the day, trucking companies needed to track the beginning and ending odometer reading for each state. That meant that the home office needed to sift through dozens of reports a week in order to capture this information.
  • Data entry mistakes are eliminated. The ELD units are capturing the total miles per state automatically. Most can even capture toll miles, which means you can have thorough mileage reporting. When a human enters mileage figures day after day, the likelihood of transposing a number increases.
  • Mileage data coming directly from the truck is more accurate than mileage software.
  • Eliminate third-party fuel tax preparation services. Frontline Q7 trucking software is capable of combining fuel and mileage data with current IFTA tax rates in just a few seconds. Simply file your quarterly IFTA and move on to other things.
  • Works with most major ELD providers.
