When your Purchaser buys oil from you, many times your pumper isn't available to oversee the transfer of the crude.
​
And, while we trust our Purchasers, it's still good practice to verify them, too. πŸ˜‰
​
Fortunately, given a few key ingredients (like Observed API, Observed Temperature, BS&W and the like), the Greasebook can auto calculate Corrected Barrels for you and your operations! πŸ™†β€β™€οΈ

To enable the Corrected Barrels feature, simply go to Settings > Company > Settings > and Click Yes on the drop-down menu to enable this feature for the Company, like this:

Now, this feature can be enabled for each transport company that you will need it for, so, also in Settings > Transport Companies > like this:

⭐️Pro Tip: unfortunately, not all your Purchasers will give you the variables required on your run ticket to calculate your Corrected Barrels. πŸ˜• So, please review your run tickets from each Purchaser before turning on the feature for a given Transport Company. If not, you'll have an upset pumper on the line because the app won't let your pumper save a ticket without them! β˜ŽοΈπŸ‘¨πŸ»

Now, with the Corrected Barrels feature enabled for a given Transport Company, all required variables to calculate the volumetric correction will be displayed to your pumper when logging the ticket in the field:

Next up: do you have gotchas / variables in your operations which you wish the Greasebook would simply auto-calculate for you?

For example, maybe you'd like to add a bit of simple math behind a Sales Meter and Buy Meter to auto-calculate the true production of a lease?

This is precisely why you should be aware of our Logic Variables feature and how they can be applied to your operations...
