I can see how challenging it can be when your mileage tracking suddenly stops working, Richard. I am here to help you get back on track. Let’s go through a few steps to troubleshoot and resolve this issue quickly.
Here are a few steps you can take to resolve the issue:
Check Auto-Tracking Settings:
Open the QuickBooks Online mobile app.
Tap the Menu ☰ icon.
Select Mileage.
Ensure that Auto-track your miles is on and that location access is allowed.
Review Location Settings:
On iOS: Go to your device’s Settings > QuickBooks > Location and select Always. Ensure Motion & Fitness, Background App Refresh, and Cellular Data are on.
On Android: Ensure QuickBooks has permission to run in the background and access your location all the time.
Clear Cache:
If you’re using the desktop app, clear the cache by selecting Help > Reset app data, then fully close and re-open the app.
Check for Interference:
Third-party apps or antivirus software can interfere with mileage tracking. Make sure QuickBooks is allowed to run without restrictions.
Update the App:
Ensure you have the latest version of the QuickBooks mobile app installed. Updating the app can fix and improve functionality.
If the issue persists, I highly recommend contacting QuickBooks support for further assistance. Their experts can provide tailored troubleshooting to your account and device setup, ensuring a swift resolution.
