In Carrier TMS, you can import all your Fuel Card Statements into the system with just a few steps. The import feature allows you to add transactions from any existing Fuel Card provider into the system through a .CSV file, even if it’s not a partner provider.
You will need to fill out a template file with your statements information and import the data to Carrier TMS via .CSV upload.
