Work with fuel interface batches  

1. At the EMMS main menu, select Maintenance | Fuel Island | Work With Interface Batches.
   • The Work With Fuel Interface Batches display screen appears.
2. To work with the transactions in a batch:
   1. Right-click on the batch and select W/W Trans.
      • The Work With Transactions display screen appears.
   2. Check the Sts and TypSts and Typ of each transaction to determine if any need to be changed; a batch with errors cannot be posted.

      Sts is the status of the transaction. To bypass an error transaction in order to let the rest of the batch be posted, the transaction can be deleted here, but should then be entered manually into the Fuel Billing system as the need exists. Possible values are:

      • R - received;
      • D - deleted;
      • P - posted.

      Typ is the transaction type. Values can be:

      • F - fluid (fuel or oil);
      • C - other charges;
      • M - meter reading.
   3. To change a transaction:
      1. Right-click on the transaction and select Edit Transaction.
         • The Edit Transaction Page 1 change screen appears.
      2. Make any corrections required.
         • If the interface type is COMDTA2, you will not be allowed to have a blank Billable Flag; the error "Value required" or "Billable Flag Not Valid" will be sent.
      3. Click Enter to save the changes.
      4. Click Exit twice to return to the Work With Fuel Interface Batches display screen.
3. To post an error free batch:
   1. Right-click on the batch and select Post.
      • The Confirm Post Request screen appears.
   2. Click Enter.
      • The defined information transactions are posted: metrics to EMMS; as directed to Fuel Billing if installed; as directed to memo work orders.
      • The Fuel Billing postings will be in Processed status.
