When we make the mileage rate change, if someone files an expense report for a date before Jan 1, 2017 will it apply the new rate or the old rate?

Problem

When a new year with a new mileage rate occurs, how do we know if the user will be getting the correct mileage rate?

Solution

The effective rate it is based on the charge date of the expense. If the mileage rate is based on a trip in December 2016 and you have 01/01/2017 rate configured, then the system will only pick up the rate associated with 2016 because it is before the effective date of 01/01/2017.If the user’s mileage expense is on or after 01/01/2017 then it will pick up the new rate.
