Preparing Route
-
Next you'll be brought to the Driver Load screen, from here you'll tap your individual loads as well as Fuel types to see which terminals you should visit first and which truck you are assigned for the day. It is important you select both fuels so you can see how many terminals you must visit for Fuel pickup
-
After arriving at each terminal tap on Pickups/Transfer then select Source Type (Terminal), Source Container, Destination Type (Vehicle) and Destination Container then record how many gallons you are picking up. Afterwards record your BOD Inventory and BOD Meter to keep track throughout the day. See below for how to Begin a Load

Next prepare route for each delivery and follow steps for Delivery View and complete each individual delivery

At the end of the day, update the EOD Inventory, EOD Meter and EOD Miles for both Fuel Types, if applicable
-
Following that, return to each terminal to return any left over fuel, then Tap Pickups/Transfer, select the source the fuel is coming from (Vehicle), The Source Container, The Destination Type (Terminal), The Destination Container and finally, record how many gallons are being transferred. These steps can also be followed if doing a transfer between other vehicles if approved
