Totals by Fuel Type Pane

Entering Fuel Types

 

The Fuel Type pane allows entry of the grand totals of miles and gallons (or kilometers and liters) by each fuel type, for the entire return. 

¨    Enter the two-letter fuel type code (i.e. DI for diesel) in the FT column. 

¨    Enter the total distance traveled on that fuel type for the quarter in the Total Miles column.

¨    Enter the total volume of fuel purchased and placed in the vehicles in the Total Gallons column.

¨    Divide the mileage by the gallons, and enter the result in the MPG column.

¨    Enter another two-letter fuel type code (i.e. GA for gasoline) and repeat the process to enter the data for that fuel type.

¨    Click Add More Fuel Types to add another row to the table for additional fuel types.
