Automatic HMRC Rate Calculations

The Prolius platform automatically applies HMRC advisory fuel rates to relevant mileage claims, reducing the risk of manual error and ensuring alignment with current guidelines.

The system supports multiple rate structures, allowing organisations to configure rates based on engine size, fuel type or vehicle class. This flexibility ensures claims remain accurate while reflecting both regulatory standards and internal policies.

Administrators can update or override rates where necessary, with all changes logged to maintain a clear audit trail. By automating these calculations, the platform significantly reduces the administrative workload for finance and payroll teams.

Approvals and Role-Based User Management

Built within the platform, is a structured approvals process designed to give organisations complete oversight of fuel claims. Role-based permissions allow you to assign responsibilities to specific users - such as drivers, line managers, finance approvers or super admins - ensuring that each stage of the process is clearly defined and appropriately controlled.

Approval workflows are configurable, supporting multi-level authorisation where required. Automated email notifications are triggered at key stages - including submission, approval or rejection - to keep stakeholders informed and maintain a clear communication trail.

This approach not only streamlines the approvals process but also reduces delays, supports accountability and ensures sensitive data is only accessible to those with the correct level of permission.
