Ensure that you have the necessary access rights in FL3XX to perform this action. If you are unable to access the Settings menu or cannot find the Fuel section, please reach out to your system administrator for assistance..
- Go to SETTINGS / Fuel Settings
Before proceeding with the import or upload, please review the following settings:
- **Fuel Basis Airport IATA**: This setting is essential for fuel imports when your data file includes multiple price index locations. For example, if your index lists DUS, LPA, and VIE, specify the airport you wish to use for your FL3XX configuration here.
- **Replace Fuel Database**: Selecting this option will completely erase your existing fuel database in FL3XX and replace it with the data from the uploaded file.
- **Update Price in Future Flights**: This option is relevant for fuel requests during dispatch. It allows you to override previously uploaded fuel prices and any ITP FP due from the moment of upload for future flights that are scheduled to depart after this time.
- Go to SETTINGS / Fuel Providers
- Upload fuel prices: Choose File and proceed
- The import process may take several minutes, depending on the size of the file. It is important to note that FL3XX does not simply upload the data; it also reviews your existing flights, aligns them with the new information, and updates according to your specified settings. Therefore, this entire operation can take some time—potentially 20 to 30 minutes—especially if your file contains thousands of entries and there are numerous booked flights to process.
- You can access the main generic FL3XX Fuel Template here
- Please be aware that if the Currency field is left blank or if the corresponding column is absent in the generic FL3XX Fuel Template, the system will automatically use the default currency specified in the Settings under the Fuel section.
