The Fuels Management System starts with dependable, automatic home delivery projection tied to comprehensive, centralized customer information. Accounts receivable, credit control, delivery, and service functions are all closely integrated within an intuitive user interface, where ease of use is matched with powerful access to information.

Automatic accounts receivable processing and billing, combined with detailed service invoicing, make this one of the most cost effective and versatile systems available today in the retail fuel oil industry. This powerful software provides complete automatic control of all deliveries, delivery schedules, budget customer accounts, and service invoicing.

The more than 100 reports supply the dealer with printed records of any aspect of the business, and a Report Writer with an ASCII data export facility extends information access to other applications such as word processors and spreadsheets.

Our Fuels Management System has a proven track record, continually growing and evolving to meet the real world demands of fuel oil and propane dealers for over 20 years. Working closely with our customer user group, the Fuels Management System continues to evolve, interfacing new technologies, providing the competitive edge.

The Fuels Management System operates on a wide variety of hardware and operating systems. This software currently runs under MS-DOS; Windows; Windows 95/98; DOS Networks such as Concurrent DOS, Novell and LANtastic; SCO UNIX/XENIX; IBM's AIX operating system, and Windows NT.

The Fuels Management System places information from print tickets, credit reviews, pricing, delivery, work orders (with up-to-date customer site information), and management reports, at your customer representative's fingertips. By getting the right information to the proper employees in a quick and efficient manner, our system allows your employees to make the correct decision in a prompt and cost efficient way.

We do this by providing a highly integrated package with the strongest Inquiry in the industry. From this hub, employees can rapidly access information affecting a customer's background, billing address and contact information, accounts receivable, credit control, product, delivery, service, service history, LP gas, best cost purchasing, point of sale and more! Calculations are based upon true aging rather than month-end bucket aging to provide more accurate totals. The current balance reflects all current payments, deliveries, and miscellaneous postings.

Depending on the operating system that you use, you may be able to multi-task, which allows you to have more than one screen of information to work with.
