Vehicle File

A vehicle file is provided for the user to enter vehicle information. Every vehicle in
the file may be configured as to whether or not the system will calculate
MPG/HPG and execute a reasonable odometer/hours check on it. If the feature
is disabled for a vehicle record, the system will continue to update the total
gallons and odometer/hours entries, but MPG/HPG will not be calculated.

MPG File
Information

MPG/HPG software computes fuel efficiency two ways: per transaction and
averaged over a period of time (usually a month). To use the MPG/HPG option,
the user enters information on each of his vehicles into a vehicle record. These
records are stored in a vehicle file. The MPG/HPG option uses the vehicle data
you enter plus calculated values to provide total MPG/HPG information. The
vehicle information for MPG is different than that for HPG; both types are shown
below.

MPG vehicle file fields:

VEH

3- to 6-digit vehicle number

B ODOM

up to 6-digit beginning odometer reading

E ODOM

up to 6-digit ending odometer reading (last recorded)

GALLONS up to 8-digits for total gallons for period

MILES

6-digits for miles driven

MPG

3 digits before and one after the decimal point for MPG value.

STAT

a record status code indicating MPG comments (for more on
status flags, see the Operation Manual)


HPG vehicle/equipment file fields:

VEH

3- to 6-digit vehicle/equipment number

B HOURS up to 6-digit beginning hours reading

E HOURS up to 6-digit ending hours reading (last recorded)

A HOURS up to 6-digit new accumulated hours

GALLONS up to 8-digits for total gallons for period

HPG

3 digits before and one after the decimal point for HPG value.

STAT

a record status code indicating HPG comments

Transaction
Printout

The transaction printout, in addition to standard transaction fields, lists the number
of miles/hours since the vehicle’s last transaction, and the per transaction
miles/hours per gallon. A sample MPG transaction printout is shown in Figure 2-
18.
