NBS Amicus Fuel includes the ability to monitor and report on the flow of wet stock to all tanks, pumps and hoses. The process of a fuel shift ties with the shifts of your staff. Each time a staff member begins a shift, the tank and pump fuel volume is stored and logged. At the end of their shift they again take another set of readings to update the differences between the starting fuel volume and the fuel volume at the end of the shift.

To access the Fuel Shift screen, click on Fuel Module from the Amicus Toolbar and then click on Fuel Shift.
