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. 2022.1.

  • 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

    Note: SQL Server 2014, SQL Server 2016, SQL Server 2017, and SQL Server 2019 are supported. Trimble Transportation recommends using the latest service pack of whichever version you use.

  • 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

Auto Complete Orders

Exclude Company from Auto Complete (TTESUITE-201923)

The Auto Complete Dispatched orders feature will auto-complete Dispatched or Started orders. Now, you can exclude orders for a company from being auto-completed. You use the Auto Complete Orders checkbox in the Company Tank Setup window. The checkbox is selected by default. You clear it to turn off the feature for the company. You access the Company Tank Setup window in the Inventory Services application.

Forecast window views

Do not forecast tanks excluded from Forecast views (TTESUITE-40464,TTESUITE-202531,TTESUITE-202532)

In the Inventory Services application, you can identify tanks you do not want forecasted. You do this in the Order Forecast Review window by selecting Do Not Forecast This Tank in the Mode field. Before, some windows showed these tanks with tanks that were forecasted. Now, tanks that are not forecasted are not displayed in the grids views in these windows:

  • Dispatch Dashboard

  • Forecast Order Review

  • Forecast Order Site Review

Instead, they are shown in the Set to Do Not Forecast column.

Resolved issues

Application Help menu

  • TTESUITE-201710
    Going to Help > Content in the application took you to the Learning Center homepage. It should have taken you to the application online help.
    Note: If you want to access the Learning Center homepage, go to Help > Learning Center.

Company Relations Profile

  • TTESUITE-200053
    In the Company Relations Profile window, you can set up a consignee to use tanks or commodities. You make your entries on the window’s Tanks and Consignee Cmds tabs. If you made entries on both tabs, importing readings generated an error. Now, if you have already made entries for a consignee on one tab, you will see a warning if you try to make entries on the other tab.

Fuel Order Import/Export

  • TTESUITE-202059
    Incoming orders with a tank number that had double digits were being marked as a splash blend by the system. This caused import errors that prevented the order from being created properly.

Performance Improvements

  • TTESUITE-201784, TTESUITE-201500, TTESUITE-202523,TTESUITE-202524
    Now you can retrieve, assign, and save an order more quickly. The changes apply to these windows:

    • Card Planner

    • Planning Worksheet

  • TTESUITE-202438
    When you made a change to a store (site) and saved your changes, it could take several minutes to save the record. This happened in these windows:

    • Dispatch Dashboard

    • Forecast Order Review

    • Forecast Order Site Review
