Computer system of control and account

Computer System of Control and AccountThe Computer control system provides control over the filling stations equipment, gas-filling stations and gas-filling compressor stations for retail sale of petroleum products, liquefied and compressed gas, record of delivered petroleum products, account of sales of related products and services provided

Computer control system for  filling stations

The system has a wide spectrum of service functions:
  • Management and control of petroleum products
  • Compilation of accounting documents
  • Automatic printing of receipts and fiscal reports
For the normal functioning of the system it is necessary to have:
  • Personal computer with a class no lower than Intel Atom 1,8GHz and RAM at least 2 Gb
  • PTS controller

On the customer request it is possible to connect a system for measuring the level in reservoirsVEEDER ROOT, STRUNA, Start Italiana, etc.), a system of cashless payments on the basis of smart-card systems and other terminal equipment of filling stations.

SUPPORTED COMMUNICATION PROTOCOLS


Fuel dispensers communication protocols

Baud rate is configured for pump channel in PTS controller independently on the used communication protocol.

Some dispensers may demand using interface converter boards to RS-485 interface (depends on electronics of used pumphead in dispenser).

MODES OF NAFTAPOS SYSTEM OPERATION


Taking into account that in different countries there are different particularities of petrol stations operation like:

  • the way the customers are serviced (order amd payment is given at pump or to cashier in petrol station office)
  • the way how the management of petrol station is done (operation of cashiers in working shifts or without)
  • the way how sales and remains of fuel are calculated (using automatic tanks gauge system, pump total counters, inventory reconcilation)

NaftaPOS software is designed to make it possible to flexibly configure and adjust a required way of operation and allow customers to make it work as their local rules demand.

One of the commonly used methods of NaftaPOS operation is when control over fuel dispensers is made by fuel attendants, who service customers. Fuel attendants operate dispensers and receive payment from customers. Fuel attendants control the fuel dispensers as if those worked in a standalone mode (administering starts automatically when the dispensing nozzle is lifted and trigger is pressed). In this mode it is possible to make fuel order preset (in volume or in money amount) from the dispenser preset keyboard. At this moment NaftaPOS software monitors all the transactions being performed and writes all the information to its database. Also cashier at any time can see activity of every fuel dispenser and in case of necessity can stop any of them and receive reports on operation remotely from NaftaPOS software. Receipts can be optionally printed after each dispensing.

Also in this mode third-party applications are able to use NaftaPOS software database as a storage of all transactions and sales performed (locally or remotely) – then this third party software can find total data on all sales and transactions from NaftaPOS database. NaftaPOS can be set to work without any working shifts and automatically start at launching PC so that it was possible to start operation with dispensers:

(click on images to enlarge)

Another popular way of NaftaPOS operation is when control over fuel dispensers is made by the cashier, who logs in NaftaPOS under a working shift (using his personal login and password) and is responsible for all sales performed at petrol station. Money are to be directly paid to the cashier, each customer after the sales performed receives a receipt:

WEB REPORTING SYSTEM AND ONLINE MONITORING


NaftaPOS system has a web-portal to provide:

  • formation of reports on operation of petrol stations in various views for analytics and statistics of petrol stations activity to provide decisions for optimization of petrol stations operation;
  • online monitoring of each petrol station activity (fuel dispensers operation, remains and parameters of fuel in tanks, current working shift operations) to provide control over personnel at petrol station and security;
