How Connexion Mobility’s Uber for Business Integration Streamlines Cost Tracking for Dealership Courtesy Transportation

Managing courtesy transportation costs can be a time-consuming and error-prone process for dealerships. Whether using loaner vehicles, shuttles, or ridehail services, tracking expenses, allocating costs, and ensuring warranty reimbursement eligibility requires manual data entry, administrative oversight, and frequent reconciliation.

With Connexion Mobility’s Uber for Business integration, dealerships can automate cost tracking, eliminate manual entry, and gain full visibility into transportation expenses—ensuring a more efficient, accurate, and cost-effective solution.

Challenges of Manual Courtesy Transportation Cost Tracking

Many dealerships struggle with tracking and managing transportation expenses due to outdated or disconnected processes:

  1. No Centralized Cost Tracking System

🔹 Costs for loaner vehicles, shuttle fuel, and ridehail services are often scattered across different systems.
🔹 Service managers manually enter ride costs, increasing the risk of errors and missed expenses.
🔹 Reconciling transportation costs takes time and delays financial reporting.

  1. Complex Expense Allocation Across Departments

🔹 Transportation costs may need to be allocated to different service jobs, warranty claims, or customers.
🔹 Without automated cost categorization, dealerships may miss opportunities to recover expenses.
🔹 Service advisors must manually determine whether costs are billable to the manufacturer, customer, or dealership.

  1. Manual Warranty Reimbursement Tracking

🔹 Most manufacturers offer warranty reimbursement for transportation costs, but dealerships often miss out due to poor tracking.
🔹 Without an automated system, advisors must manually flag eligible rides and submit reimbursement requests.
🔹 Lost or incomplete ride data leads to missed reimbursements and lost revenue.

  1. Frequent Reconciliation Headaches

🔹 Uber for Business charges daily, leading to frequent, small transactions that require reconciliation.
🔹 Loaner and shuttle expenses require separate tracking and reporting, increasing administrative workload.
🔹 Inconsistent tracking creates cost discrepancies that delay financial reporting.
