Post Fuel to Equipment Assigned To

This section allows you to use a set of criteria to filter the equipment pulled into the batch. You can filter by JC Co, location, category, department, and/or shop. The more criteria you enter, the more restrictive the selection will be. For example, you can post fuel usage for all equipment on a specific job, or you can restrict entries based on job, location, and category.

After you enter the desired criteria, click the Refresh button to pull all equipment into the batch meeting the criteria. You can repeat this process as needed until you have added all desired equipment. Then use the grid to enter the units, miles, and hours.
