Configure pumps, nozzles and meter readings
Each nozzle must point to the tank that physically supplies it. Meter readings stay in the totalizer’s native unit and precision; FuelOps derives litres for operational reporting. A pump brand/model describes the equipment and does not establish an automatic connection.

Who this is for
Authorized station managers/owners setting up equipment.
Before you begin
Inspect the physical totalizer. Record unit, decimal places, whole-digit counter width and current reading for every nozzle.
1Add a pump correctly
- Open the station detail and choose Add pump. Give it a recognizable label; record brand and model when available.
- For each nozzle, select its supplying tank. Check the fuel grade instead of assuming every nozzle on a pump uses the same tank.
- Choose litres, US liquid gallons or imperial gallons to match the display. Enter the number of decimal places and digits before the decimal point.
- Enter the current initial index exactly as shown. Use the configuration preview and maximum reading to check your choices.
- Confirm that you inspected the meter configuration, save, and compare each saved nozzle with the physical equipment.
Nozzle volumes can be calculated using a verified meter configuration.
2Handle a lower closing index
- First check a typing error, wrong nozzle or wrong unit. Do not automatically treat a decrease as a rollover.
- For a genuine counter wrap, use the declared-rollover workflow and the organization’s metering policy. Preserve the evidence and sequence.
- A replaced meter or manual reset requires the maintenance/reset request workflow. Do not change old readings to make the new display fit.
- The owner can review metering policy at organization or station scope. Follow the explanation shown for the selected policy; it is not permission to omit evidence.
Rollover, replacement and ordinary readings remain distinguishable.
A practical example
A display 12345.67 with five digits before the point and two after it is entered as 12345.67, precision 2, width 5. Closing 12845.92 represents 500.25 displayed units, not necessarily litres when the unit is gallons.
If something goes wrong
I cannot confirm the setup
Complete every nozzle’s unit, precision, width, tank and index. Ask the equipment technician if the display is unclear.
The wrong tank supplied an old shift
Report the affected shift to a manager. Changing today’s mapping does not establish which tank supplied historical fuel.
