GEM-Fuel is a module to quickly sell gas on-the-go.

Requirements:

Main advantages:

  • Quickly manage your fuel sales from the Point of Sale without having to quit or stop what you were doing (e.g.: buliding an estimate or work order, etc...)

From the main menu, go to [Configuration] > [General information]:

To speed up your gas sale process, GEM-CAR will use the "Walk-in customer", hence the importance to set it properly.

Make sure you have a walk-in customer in your customers list or create one in the Customer Management window. The walk-in customer is generally used to invoice counter sales, allowing you to change the customer name on-the-fly.
