Fuel/Fluid - Receipts


The Receipts screen for fuel enables you to view and record information about the receipt of fuel into tanks for future dispensation to equipment units. If the date of a fuel receipt or transfer is earlier than an existing tank adjustment, then only the value is adjusted, not the quantity.
