Multiple Mileage Thresholds
This guide outlines how an administrator can manage multiple mileage thresholds within Cezanne Expenses.
Cezanne Expenses predominantly caters for UK mileage configuration, which is guided by HMRC. When a threshold is reached, the rate reduces automatically.
It is only possible to configure one threshold against a Mileage Rate.
💡Tip
This option is commonly used in regions such as Ireland and recommended mileage rates can be found on the official Irish Revenue website here.
Mileage Key
Below is an example of the key which can be used to ensure claimants are mapped to the correct vehicle and band.
The vehicle owner, engine type and engine capacity are relative to HMRC mileage rates only but are used to ensure that the claimant is mapped correctly for each Irish Mileage threshold.

It is recommended that if you wish to capture mileage in this manner that you create your own Mileage Key for reference.
Mileage Claims
Once a claimant on Band 1 or 2 hits their mileage threshold, their rate will drop to zero. When this happens, the claimant will need to reach out to the system administrator who will then move them onto the next Band using a key like the one above.
A policy note should be shown each time the Mileage Category is selected, which will have a policy statement available for the claimant to read with details of who they should contact once the rate drops to zero.

Once the claimant hits the mileage rate for Band 3 & 4, they won’t need to be moved again until the following financial year when they will need to be moved back to Band 1.
There is likely to be a requirement for the claimant to split the mileage claim that takes them over the threshold.
For example, if the claimant only has 10 miles left until they reach the threshold, but their claim is for 20 miles, they will need to split their journey into two and firstly submit their claim for 10 miles.
The administrator will then update their Band and the claimant will be able to submit the remaining 10 miles at their new rate.
Updating Claimant Vehicle Details
When a claimant needs to be moved to a new band, the administrator can do this by navigating to Administration > Users and selecting the relevant user.
Within the Vehicle tab, the claimant can then be moved onto the next band, again using the Mileage Key.
Please note, to successfully update the vehicle details, ensure that all the claimants’ existing claims are processed.
