GENERAL DESCRIPTION

1.1. INTRODUCTION

This manual describes the web-based application of the SiteOmat Fleet Head Office System (hereafter referred to as the FHO) and the Fuel Management Software (FMS). The manual provides instructions on how to use the various features offered in the FHO: such as real-time gas station definition and management, data collection and distribution from/to all relevant stations, data reporting, product management and pricing. And in the FMS: viewing the fuel level of gas station/sites, monitoring fuel status alarms, making recommendations for fuel orders in stations with low fuel levels and more.
This Installation and User's Manual functionally describes three major applicat ions:
1. Administrator Application
2. FHO Application
3. FMS Application
This manual is targeted toward any authorized user of the FHO (i.e. fleet managers, head office managers or system administrators), FMS (i.e. station managers or fuel manager) and System Administrators using the Administration Application.
FMS and FHO are Web based applications where any authorized user can access it via a browser (Internet Explorer 7 and up). It uses a secured SSL connection (HTTPS).

1.2. FHO PRODUCT OVERVIEW

1.2.1. General

The FHO System is a centralized fleet management and authorization server for all fleet-oriented activity in a region.
The system uploads all fleet-oriented data from the stations and generates centralized reports per fleet, including exception and efficiency performance. Graphical reports are available to the fleet managers via web interface. Each fleet manager uses a secured link to log into the system to manage his fleet.

1.2.2. Features

The main FHO system features are:
Centralized reporting per fleet
FMS and FHO User’s Manual - MDE-4821 25
26
Secure web in ter f ace for fl eet mana gers : each manager is able to manage his own fleet and
has no access to other fleets
System administration enables control of the entire system, set up of accounts, new fleets
and vehicles
Interface to a card/tag/VIU (Vehicle Identification Unit) fleet payment and authorization of
device issuing system, according to fleet account and debit procedure settlings defined for each card/vehicle to be included in the system
Advanced authorization method, available for the fleet manager via the web, including
several rules and restrictions to be applied to each fueling authorization unit
The system works in both on-line and off-line modes, with all the authorization parameters
mentioned above. A grace period can be defined to limit the time a station can continue authorizing vehicles in off-line mode
The FHO includes a fleet credit/debit account (OBLIGO). Minimum credit must be
maintained for each fleet in order to enable refueling
Backup database – Either by system's backup mechanism or according to company's policy
Export of data to other third-party systems

1.2.3. Fleet Management

FHO is responsible for collecting and distributing information regarding the fleets from and to all relevant SiteOmat stations. The process complies with the following criteria:
Each station is connected to the FHO directly
Data is collected at pre defined time intervals
Only the changed data (delta) from last collection is captured, which reduces
communication overhead. Data collection is done at predefined time intervals. The update interval can be set for each station
Access to data is protected by username and password. The user must be defined in the
Station Controller that is connected to the FHO
All authorizations are done locally – the stations are on-line since the authorization data is
continuously updated by the FHO
A station may continue working off-line, under the constraints imposed by configuration
The FHO can only retrieve the data relevant to its fleets

1.3. FMS PRODUCT OVERVIEW

1.3.1. General

The FMS enables the user to see a complete overview of the fuel status and levels at the entire chain of stations and at each tank separately.
The user is able to view the entire picture of all stations in a table form (grid). The status of stations is presented in different colors. The user utilizes a friendly GUI (Graphic User Interface) to change the sorting filter and view all stations, only stations with alarms, stations belonging to a specific group and more.
Selection of a single station displays on-line alarms and station status screen. In this screen the user is able to see additional details related to the tanks (e.g. temperature, water level, density and more).
The FMS mechanism is based on data collection from several sources:
Fuel alarms from TLG (Tank Level Gauging) or SiteOmat forecourt controller
Fuel transactions from SiteOmat
Fuel deliveries from TLG or SiteOmat or FMS (manual entry)
Periodic fuel readings from pumps and tanks. Readings can be made every several
minutes/hours
SiteOmat End of shift data (mandatory for some of the reconciliation reports)
1.3.2. Features The main FMS system features are:
Fuel Inventory Management: FMS automatically receives all stations' wet inventory
data via web services according to SiteOmat setup in each station. There is no need to configure the system twice. The FMS regularly obtains updates from a station (e.g. new tanks, tanks with different fuel type), displays fuel level, water level, temperature and tank density per each individual tank. The software stores each tank's history and provides forecast for future deliveries
Orders and Deliveries: FMS connects orders to fuel deliveries and reconciles the
relevant amounts (order vs. TLG vs. Bill of Loading Vs. deep stick readings), enables tight data tracking designed to minimize loses and maximize the service stations efficiency
Online Fuel Alarms: FMS manages alerts for stations with critical fuel levels, leaks,
overfills and other events. All alerts can be sent to a single user group/s via email or SMS. Fuel order forms can be produced directly via the alarm screen, in cases where low fuel level alarms were activated
Reporting and Management: FMS enables the user to generate several sales, stock and
reconciliation reports at company level (i.e. amount of fuel in all stations, alarms for all stations) and at station level
The interaction between the various components of the fleet management is shown in Figure 1-1.

1.3.4. Authentication

FHO and FMS are designed to provide access to content in accordance with the user’s access level. Upon login request into the FHO/FMS web-based application, the system checks whether the user with these login credentials (username and password) exists. If the login credentials are not found in the user list, access to the application is denied. If these login credentials are validated, the application opens, with content suitable to the user’s access level.

1.3.5. Protection

The FHO and FMS Systems are protected by a special program plug (HASP), to be attached to the Head Office server.
FHO and FMS are non operational if this plug is not attached to the server.
