Worked example

Three trucks, five months of receipts.

This is what HSLedger shows a contractor after a season of entering pump receipts. Everything below is calculated by the product itself — the same code that runs for a paying customer — from the fuel, repairs, tires and insurance of the yard in the table.

This fleet is invented. Three trucks, their fuel and two invoices, made up so the screens have something in them. No contractor's real records are shown here, and nothing on this page can be edited — it is a photograph, not the app.

The number nobody guesses

Plow 1 · 2017 Ford F-350 with plow costs $0.93 a kilometre to run. Truck 1 · 2019 Ford F-250 costs $0.57. Same yard, same season, a $0.36 gap per kilometre — which is the difference between a route that earns and one that quietly does not. A single fuel total for the whole fleet cannot tell you which truck is which.

Six fields, typed from the slip: date, truck, litres, price per litre, odometer, total. The litres and the price are already printed on a pump receipt — the only number your driver has to add is the odometer. There is no photo scanning and no magic; everything above is arithmetic on those six fields.
