Specific Fuel Provider logic

Fuel Unit Handling during Import:

Default Behavior:

For standard import sheets, we consider fuel prices to be in US Gallons (USG), except for FL3XX, FUEL AND MORE, and AVIAA sheets.

For these specific sheets, we utilize the fuel unit preferred by the operator, which may either be USG or Liters.

Currency Conversion

The import process already handles currency conversion to the operator's currency for all fuel prices.

If the template includes its own currency row, such as in Aviaa, FuelAndMore, or UAS, that currency will be used. If no specific currency is provided in the template, we will default to the operator's designated fuel currency. If the operator's fuel currency is also not specified, we will then use the operator's default currency.

Each fuel template operates under specific guidelines. To successfully upload a fuel file, it is essential that both the headers and the file format align with these guidelines. Users can refer to the template structure provided below for assistance.

Fuel&More Integration

You can upload your Fuel&More Excel Sheet to FL3XX in order to display current fuel price information here in the fuel panel, and also to use actual prices for the cost calculation of the flight.
