Tank Management¶
Tanks are the physical underground storage vessels at a site. Each tank holds one product and has a defined capacity.
Adding a tank¶
- Open the site from Back Office → Sites.
- Click Add tank.
- Complete the form:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Tank name | e.g. T1, Tank 1 Diesel |
| Product | Fuel type stored in this tank |
| Capacity (L) | Nominal capacity in litres |
| Tank type | Site tank (standard) or Transfer tank |
| Active | Uncheck to decommission without deleting |
- Click Save.
Dip chart¶
A dip chart converts a stick reading (mm height) to a volume (litres). Without a dip chart, dip heights cannot be automatically converted to volumes.
To upload a dip chart:
- Open the tank detail.
- Click Upload dip chart.
- Upload a CSV with columns
height_mmandvolume_litres. - The system validates the data and shows a preview before saving.
Tank types¶
| Type | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Site | Primary storage — tracked in wet-stock reconciliation |
| Transfer | Intermediate storage used in stock transfer operations |
