We are a mining and ready mix operation with approximately 200 mobile pieces of equipment.  In our previous fleet management system, we could download fuel tickets as either ROAD (filled up at a gas station using a card) or Company (filled up at one of our fuel locations on site that store inventory.

This was not done as a work order, but essentially a material requisition at the object level.

Is anyone aware of any capability within IFS that allows this?  We have been told that it will require work orders to be completed, just to charge fuel to an object.

We want to be able to track to the object so we can identify costs properly and trends, such as an object using more fuel than standard.

Have you tried setting up the fuel as test points and measurements? It will not capture costs but you can see if one truck is using more fuel than usual.

I will test this.  Thank you!
