Fuel Data Load (Automated Fuel Tickets)


The Fuel Data Load tab enables you to define and process an upload from an automated fuel system and review the number of transactions accepted and rejected during the processing.

Detail View Header

The field in the top section of this tab defines the data that displays.

Run ID

The sequential identification number assigned to each fuel transaction upload. The run description displays in the field to the right of the ID.

Detail View

Data in the fields in the bottom section of the tab define the upload of fuel data and display the results of the upload process. Unless otherwise indicated, these fields are required.

Run description

Enter a unique description of the run, or file upload. Using the date or other identifying information may be beneficial for identification purposes.

Use hyphens (-) and not slashes (/ or \) to separate the date elements. For example, MM-DD-YYYY.

User ID uploading

The User ID uploading field defaults to the currently logged in user.

Enter or select a different user ID, if needed. The user name displays in the field to the right of the ID.

Fuel file name and path (Required)

Enter the fuel file's name and file path. This name is loaded into the database. This field allows up to 256 characters.

You must include the drive location (ex. "C:\") and directory path (ex. "...\<deployment>\<folder>\<file name>" if the file is not stored on the current drive and directory. The file must also be accesible to the Application Server. The file name CANNOT have the same name as another file used by the Application. To avoid naming conflicts, it is recommended to add an extension of "AFD" (Automated Fuel Dispensing) to all files to be used by this screen. An example of this naming convention, using a location and date for the file name, would be "<location name>MMDD.AFD".

This display-only field contains the date and time the upload began.

This display-only checkbox will be checked if processing has begun for this Run ID.
