Discrepancy in Miles Calculation Between Oracle Maps and Google Maps for Expense Reports

in Expenses 1 comment

We’re facing an issue with miles calculation in Oracle Expense Reports. Oracle uses its internal mapping system to calculate travel distances, but the results often differ significantly from Google Maps—which most users rely on during their actual travel.

To address this, we enabled the "Fastest Distance Calculation" profile option in Oracle, hoping it would bring the mileage closer to Google Maps. However, even with this setting, the calculated miles are still noticeably different and not aligned with what users expect based on Google Maps.

This discrepancy leads to confusion and potential inaccuracies in expense claims. Is there any way to configure Oracle to match Google Maps' distance calculations, or integrate Google Maps as the source for mileage data?
