The GreaseBook's default mode for gas produced is the total gas produced for the day. 

That said, we often find Electronic Flow Meters (EFMs; TotalFlows; FloBoss; etc) which keep a running or cumulative total of all gas produced onsite.

And, it's from this cumulative total that as pumpers we must back-calculate total volume produced in the last 24 hours.😰

That said, did you know the GreaseBook can also calculate daily volumes from the total running volumes, too? 😉

To handle this, we simply need to turn 'ON' Cumulative Gas Mode at each Battery within which an EFM resides (from which someone with Executive access needs to set up for you!)

Once Cumulative Mode is turned ON, your gas volume collection screen at the Battery will look something like this (note: Gas Cumulative Mode reads 'Active'):

Once you've confirmed Cumulative Mode is indeed activated, your daily entries a pretty straight forward...

Meter Reading is where you put your Cumulative (ie 'Running') Total.

Once you add your entry, you'll find the MCF field below it is auto-calculated for you (this is done by simply finding the difference between today's and yesterday's Cumulative Totals...)

Please note: what happens when you switch a meter from a Daily total to Cumulative Total and there's no prior Cumulative Total from which to work? Remember, while the MCF is auto-calculated for you, it's still adjustable!

You can see this in action here 🧐

Cumulative Mode comes with a couple extra features baked-in, too. 🎂

One of our favorites is the ability to average out production without having to punch in each day's production (which comes in especially useful on those wells you're not required to make each day!) 🤩
​
To see it in action, simply set your date picker several days beyond your last entry > enter your Cumulative measurement > and voila! 💫 You'll now see your production averaged out for you ✅

As you can see in the example, we skipped 3 days and input a Meter Reading with a total difference of 1,500 MCF since last Meter Reading entry, and the app spread them into 3 days of 500 MCF each, to reach the Meter Reading entered of 21,500.

Finally, every once in awhile a Cumulative Meter is reset to '0' after maintenance – that said, we've baked in a 'Reset Meter?' button.

That way, no matter the scenario we always reflect the correct total to the folks back at HQ 😎
