Cause

Informational

Resolution
  • The department being used needs to be set as either posting To Inventory or Both in order to reduce the QOH of your fuel inventory item

    • This is globally set in Asset Maintenance Settings.  If a particular department needs to have a different posting setting, that can be set in Department Settings.

  • The department listed on the work order needs to be setup as a Purchasing Department 

  • A fuel work order needs to be created with your asset as the subject of service

  • Fuel inventory item(s) need to have quantity on hand (QOH)

  • Fuel Type(s) need to be created in the Fuel Type program (Setup Center > Miscellaneous Codes > Fuel Type)

  • In the Fuel Usage Import program, under the WO Mapping button, link each asset to its WO number

    • Cannot map an EAM asset if it is linked to a CIP (Posted) Capital Asset

    • CIP (Posted) asset must be converted before EAM linked asset can be mapped
