Warnings
Forecaster Console update warning
As of V. 2018.3, the Forecaster Console in Inventory Services no longer uses Common Volumes to calculate order quantities. Now, it uses Trailer Compartments to maximize gallons and fit orders to specific trailer compartments. The V. 2018.3 update requires a simple setup process to forecast to trailer compartments. We have included a mass update tool in the ClientCenter download to ease this transition. Instructions on using the tool are provided in the Inventory Services 2018.3 release notes.
Social Security number encryption warning
Starting in version 2020.4, Social Security numbers you enter in the Driver profile are encrypted in the database by default.
Having encrypted Social Security numbers could interfere with third-party applications accessing the data. This happens because the data is encrypted when transferred. The third-party application would not have the ability to decrypt it.
You can set up the system so that the Social Security numbers you enter in the Driver profile are not encrypted in the database. To do so, set the DataEncryption General Info Table setting’s String1 field to N.
The Data Conversion Administration Utility allows you to encrypt/decrypt a group of Social Security numbers in your database. Contact your Professional Services representative to obtain the DataConversionAdministrationUtilityInstall.msi. Access and usage of The Data Conversion Administration Utility should only be provided to a system administrator. That utility provides access to all highly sensitive data and should only be used in the explicit instance of needing to encrypt or decrypt the driver profile. |
ALK warning
In very limited circumstances, your system could generate incorrect mileages when using PC*MILER version 32 with any of these products:
-
TMW Operations version 2018.2 or lower
-
TMW Back Office version 2018.2 or lower
-
Fuel Dispatch version 2018.2 or lower
-
TMWSuite version 2018.2.0.0275 or lower
This problem is associated only with systems that have one of these options set in their TTS50:
-
[MileageInterface]ExOptions[x]=I
-
[MileageInterface]ExOptions[x]=X
Having either of these options set will cause Practical mileage to be computed as Shortest, and Shortest mileage to be computed as Practical.
This will not affect mileages previously retrieved and stored in the mileage table.
The issue is fixed in the next general release, such as 2018.3 for TMW Operations.
A temporary workaround to bypass the incorrect code is to do any of the following:
-
Use an additional ExOption in conjunction with the I or X option.
-
Remove the I or X option entirely.
-
Install an earlier version of PC*MILER.
Requirements
-
TMWSuite®
You must be using TMWSuite V. 2019.2 or later. -
Microsoft® .NET Framework
Install or upgrade to the latest version of the Microsoft .NET Framework on your system. At a minimum, you should have V.4.6.2 installed.The framework must be installed on the FuelTMS applications server, client, and administrator systems before you install FuelTMS. If it is not present, the system displays an advisory message during the installation. Install the framework before running the application.
-
Microsoft® SQL Server®
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 or later -
You must be logged into the system where you want to install the FuelTMS applications, and have administrator rights for that system.
Like most applications, FuelTMS applications can be installed locally on a user’s system. It is also possible to install FuelTMS applications on a network drive. To do so, you must be logged into the system where the drive is physically located, and have administrator rights for that system. -
SQL Server System Administrator rights are necessary.
The installation of FuelTMS applications includes the manual application of a SQL script to the TMWSuite database. You must have a SQL Server administrator login and password to apply it.
Enhancements
Card Planner and Planning Worksheet
Show Earliest and Latest Pickup Dates (FS-201031)
You can now add/remove fields that show the Earliest and Latest Pickup Dates for a pickup stop in the Card Planner’s trip cell layout and the Planning Worksheet’s trip assignment grid.
Cell layout topic: Designing the cell layouts for the Shift and Assignment Plan panes
Grid topic: Displaying and hiding columns with Field Chooser
Integrations
Fuel Order Import/Export into Fuel - Splash Blend Components (TSI-176 and TSI-72)
Previously when importing splash blended orders using Fuel Order Import/Export, the system did not display the splash blend commodity (also known as Parent commodity) in the CODOE window. The CODOE window only displayed the sub-commodities that made up the splash blend commodity.
Now when users import splash blended orders using this tool, the parent splash blend commodity is displayed in the CODOE window, along with the sub-commodities that make up the splash blended commodity. The system identifies this parent commodity by selecting the SB checkbox.
Tank Model Maintenance
Import Tank Model and Tank Strapping values (FS-201153)
At times, you may need to update tank model information and strapping measurements in the Tank Model Maintenance window. Adding updates manually on a daily or weekly basis can be time consuming. Now you can use the Import Tank Straps feature to upload this information electronically.
