eFuelsite F.A.Q.
|
|
How do I get started? (top) |
|
To get started simply call (800) 681-8177 and one of our sales representatives will
be more than happy to get your free trial started immediately. |
|
What do I need when I call? (top) |
|
When you call, a sales representative will need to gather a few pieces of information,
such as: Contact, Company, Address, City, State, Zip, Phone, Fax, Email, Display
Company Name for the site, Display Web Address for the quotes, and Display Phone
Number for the quotes. |
|
What will happen after I call? (top) |
|
You will be assigned a customer number, an empty database will be created for your
data, and you will be sent a CD containing "Price Upload" software. |
|
What is the "Price Upload" software, and what is it used for? (top) |
|
The "Price Upload" software is an application that you load on a PC in your office.
This application will enable you to send your DTN prices directly to your pricing
site.
|
|
What are the requirements of the PC for the "Price Upload" software? (top) |
|
Your PC will need to be running Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows NT,
Windows 2000, Windows XP or a later version of Microsoft Windows. In addition, the
PC will need access to the internet and access to the export file created by your
DTN software. |
|
Can I download the "Price Upload" software from the web? (top) |
|
Absolutely, if you want to get started before the CD arrives in the mail, simply
click here. |
|
How do I install the "Price Upload" software? (top) |
|
Simply put the CD in the CD-ROM drive of your computer. Click Start, Run, and select
setup.exe from the CD. |
|
Where do I get the information the "Price Upload" software is asking for? (top) |
|
You should have received a FTP Username, FTP Password, and FTP Server information
once your pricing site was created. If you didn't get this information, simply email
pricing.support@carsley.com along with your customer number and request the information. |
|
How do I create the export file from my DTN software package? (top) |
|
Start DTN's Electronic Commerce software, click Utilities, click Export Prices,
select Fixed Length Net w/o SFund, Set the path and file name of the export file
to be created, and click OK. If this does not work, DTN may have updated their software,
so you may have to call DTN to get the latest instructions on creating an "export
file". |
|
What if my DTN terminal is not connected to my PC? (top) |
|
You can order a Y-cable (7 feet long) by calling DTN at 1-800-779-5775. |
|
What if I have a package other than DTN Electronic Commerce? (top) |
|
If you can create a file of exported prices, we can work with you, and in most cases
we will be able to import the prices into the pricing system. You can always install
and run DTN Electronic Commerce in addition to your current package if you are unable
to create an export file. |
|
How do I seamlessly link the pricing site in to my existing web site? (top) |
|
Simply link to http://www.efuelsite.com/default.asp?company=YourCustomerNumberHere where CustNo
will be replaced with the customer number assigned to you. We can help your web
administrator setup this link if assistance is needed! |
|
How do my clients/prospects find my pricing site if I don't have a web
site? (top) |
|
You have a couple of options: (1) Simply tell us a domain name that you would like
and we will register it in your name and point it to your pricing site. Then simply
give your domain name out. (2) Provide your clients with the above link and have
them bookmark it. (3) Have your clients go to http://www.eFuelSite.com and enter
your customer number. Option 1 would be the most professional method. |
|
How do I log into my site the first time? (top) |
|
Once your pricing site was created, you should have been emailed a username and
password. If not, please email us at pricing.support@carsley.com.
|
|
How do I set up my pricing site? (top) |
To get started you will need to enter some basic information.
NOTE: It will be much easier to setup product codes and products if you make sure
you successfully run and upload prices with the "Price Upload" software first.
You will want to go into each of the following links to set up information specific
to your company:
- Terminals

- Trucks
- Tax Jurisdictions
- Product Codes
