When you enter travel expenses in HoorayHR, the number of kilometres is calculated automatically based on the locations you enter. The more precise the address you enter, the more accurate the calculation will be.
Entering locations
When you fill in the departure and arrival location, HoorayHR automatically shows suggestions. You can enter a town or city, street name or even a postcode with house number. The more specific you are, the better HoorayHR can determine the exact distance.
Calculating the number of kilometres
To calculate the distance, HoorayHR uses route and location data from HERE Technologies. No personal data is used for these calculations. Only the addresses you enter and their GPS coordinates (longitude and latitude) are included.
The distance shown is based on a car journey and always follows the fastest route between the departure address and destination address.
Why distances can differ
HoorayHR calculates the distance at the moment you enter the journey. If you enter the same journey again later, the number of kilometres may differ. The fastest route can change due to traffic, road closures or diversions, for example.
Tip: If the calculated distance does not match the distance you actually travelled, you can adjust it manually. Read here how to do this.
