Quick Fuel Entries

Basic Info

Information on manual entry is provided below. For more information on using these options, contact RTA Tech Support.

Step by Step guide

Select Fuel > Fuel Entry > Quick Fuel Entry (FFQ) from the RTA main menu.
At the prompt for Posting Method, the “Fuel and Miles” button will be selected by default. Select the “OK” button.
The Quick Fuel Entry screen will be displayed. Use the Tab key to navigate through the data fields. The cursor will start in the “Vehicle” field. Enter the Vehicle number, or press “F1” for the lookup list. Enter the “Date” and “New Meter” reading for the fuel transaction. As you navigate from the “New Meter” field, RTA will calculate the miles travelled since the last fuel transaction for this vehicle and display the trip mileage in the “Miles” field, located just below the date. In the “Charge #” field, you can enter a reference to a fueling ticket (optional).
As you continue to tab through the fields in the Quick Fuel Entry screen, you can enter the state abbreviation into the ”State/Prov” field (optional). If using your own pumps and tanks, enter the “Pump #” (the Price will automatically be pulled from your Tank Record). If not using your own pumps and tanks, enter the unit cost for fuel in the “Price” field. Enter the amount of fuel dispensed in the “Qty” field. The total fuel cost will be calculated and displayed. If you are tracking vehicle utilization, you can enter the number of days the vehicle was used since last fueled in the “Days Used” field. If you are using “Alternate Meters” for this vehicle, select the “Post Alt Meters” button to update the “Alternate Meters”. When finished, select the “Post” button.
