Operations Manager I: Fuel Tax Module


The Fuel Tax menu is a complete system in and of itself. It has everything you need to calculate and report fuel taxes—miles driven in each state, fuel purchased in each state, each state’s tax rates, etc.
Before you start processing fuel taxes, you must enter the tax rates for the states that your trucks go through in the State Rate Maintenance screen. Miles for loads that were entered, loaded, and delivered on the Operations Manager system flow through to the Fuel Tax module. You simply process the miles for each truck using the Create Mileage Transactions screen. (Note: this function requires PC*Miler Connect.) Any fuel purchases that were entered or downloaded into the system on the Settlements menu automatically go to the Fuel Tax module as well. They are processed in the Create Fuel Transactions screen. Miles and fuel purchases that were not recorded in Operations Manager can be entered manually in the Fuel Tax Transactions screen. The Fuel Tax Menu is where you can enter fuel purchases and calculate state miles to calculate your fuel taxes.
Once the miles and fuel purchases have been processed, the Print State Summary report shows the amount of fuel taxes due for each state. The Print Truck Summary report shows the amount of fuel taxes due for each truck. (This is especially helpful if you have Owner-Operators that are responsible for their own fuel taxes.)
