Fuel Surcharge Entry
Accessing the System Fuel Surcharges:
Select Data Setup -> Rates -> Fuel
Entering A New Fuel Surcharge:
- Fuel %: Sets the fuel surcharge percentage you would like calculated on the shipments.
- Fuel Per Mile: Sets the fuel surcharge you would like calculated per mile on a mileage table when used.
- Effective Date: Sets the effective date for the fuel surcharge. This allows for the entry of fuel surcharges in advance, rather than waiting until the day it is to take effect.
-
Expiration Date: Sets the expiration date for the fuel surcharge.
- Example: If you are going to increase your Fuel Surcharge next week, you would enter the date you would like the old Fuel Surcharge to expire and enter a new charge to take effect thereafter.
