Hello C Butterfield,

Solar Accounts will not calculate your personal tax on mileage payments - you must do this manually. From the HMRC website it looks like the tax relief for cars is 40p per mile up to 10,000 miles, then 25p per mile after that:

However, I'm not an expert on this - please check these details with your accountant or tax office.
