Correct a mileage projection
Goal: bring the vehicle's projected mileage back in line with the real odometer reading without logging a fake service record.
- Open the vehicle from the Vehicles page.
- Open the vehicle's menu and choose Mileage Adjustment.
- Enter the current odometer reading.
- Save.
What you should see #
A mileage-only record is added to the vehicle's history. The Projection recalculates from the new data point, and mileage-based reminders and service schedules re-anchor to the corrected mileage.
When to use it #
Use Mileage Adjustment when you've been driving without logging records and the projected mileage has drifted from reality. It keeps the Projection accurate without cluttering History with a fake service entry.
For ordinary service events, use a regular record instead - records carry context that Mileage Adjustment does not.
Notes #
The mileage-only entry is hidden from History by default. It still feeds the Projection. To make it visible, enable Show mileage adjustment records in the vehicle's preferences on the Edit screen.
