FLEETCOR Fuel Card Integration

Fleetio integrates directly with FLEETCOR Fuel Cards, automatically syncing fuel transaction data directly into Fleetio, saving you time and eliminating manual data entry errors. Once you map your fuel cards to your vehicles in Fleetio, the process is completely automated.

NOTE: To integrate with Fleetio, your FLEETCOR account must be set up with an AC29 file type.

 

Included Features

  • Fuel card transactions are automatically imported each day. No more manual entry of fuel receipts, and no need to download and import CSV files.
  • Metrics like MPG and cost-per-mile are calculated for each transaction. Easily analyze fuel efficiency from all angles - by Vehicle, by Location, by Vehicle Type, and more. Apply a date range to report on a specific time period.
  • Fleetio will detect invalid Meter Readings and automatically mark them as void. Receive an email notification each day for Auto Voided Fuel Entries, with quick links to easily correct them.

Import/Update Schedule

Imports occur automatically each day, but transaction dates might be delayed a few days.

FLEETCOR processing begins at 5:30 a.m. CST (6:30 a.m. CDT)

Fuelman

Fuelman transactions typically appear the next day after a card swipe. Transactions are not processed on Sundays, so card swipes on Saturday will not typically show up in Fleetio until Monday.

NOTE: Cost information for Fuelman transactions may be delayed. Transaction data, such as odometer, gallons, etc., will still be imported each night, but pricing details "settle" weekly on Tuesdays. The price per gallon and total cost of the fuel transaction may be delayed up to a week. Cost information will only be applied to existing fuel entries and will not update unassigned transactions.

MasterCard Network

Fuel cards on the Universal MasterCard network typically appear 3-4 business days after the swipe occurs.

Set Up FLEETCOR Fuel Card Integration

Have your FLEETCOR Fleet # handy when you begin this process.

Your FLEETCOR Fleet # is typically a 5-7 digit number and may contain a dash (e.g. 12345 or 1-0A5).

You can locate the Fleet # on your FLEETCOR Account Statement:

  1. Click Integrations in the Sidebar Navigation.

  1. Click My Integrations (a) in the Integrations Directory sidebar.
  2. Click the + Add Integration button (b) in the top right and select Fuel Integration.

  1. Click FLEETCOR in the Fuel Card Providers list, then click Connect Fleetcor.

  1. Enter your FLEETCOR Fleet Number and click Add Fleetcor Fuel Card Account.

  1. Complete the electronic forms. Click the GET STARTED button to digitally sign the FLEETCOR Data Release Forms.

  1. Follow the prompts to complete the process.

IMPORTANT: FLEETCOR setup may take 7-10 business days.

Your integration Status will display beside your FLEETCOR Number.

  • Online confirms that the setup is complete.
  • Pending Setup shows that you have signed the forms, and FLEETCOR is currently completing setup.
  • Awaiting Signature indicates that you still need to complete the electronic form. Click the Sign Data Release button to proceed.

At this point, your FLEETCOR integration setup will be complete, but you will not have any Fuel Cards in Fleetio. See Manage Fuel Cards below for information on how fuel cards are added.

Manage Fuel Cards

FLEETCOR automatically sends Fuel Card transaction data to Fleetio. Fleetio will recognize a new Fuel Card and add it to your Fleetio Account based on this transaction activity. Simply use your Fuel Cards to buy gas, and each card will be automatically imported into Fleetio after 2-3 days. You'll also receive an email from Fleetio listing the cards added to your account.

NOTE: You must use each FLEETCOR card at least once at the pump in order for them to appear in Fleetio.

Assign Fuel Cards and Fuel Transactions to Vehicles

Once a Fuel Card has been imported, you must associate each card with the corresponding Fleetio Vehicle so that Fleetio knows which Vehicle should receive the transactions.

Automatically Void Meter Entries

By default, Fleetio creates Meter Entries for each Fuel Card transaction, but you do have the option to automatically void meter entries from this fuel integration. These meter entries can be manually un-voided as needed.

NOTE: Voided meters on fuel entries will result in some metrics, such as MPG, not being calculated.

To auto-void meter entries:

  1. Click Integrations in the Sidebar Navigation.
  2. Click My Integrations in the Integrations Directory sidebar.
  3. Click the More Actions Button for the FLEETCOR account and select Edit.

  1. Click the Auto-Void Meter Entries checkbox.

  1. Click the Save button.

Once enabled, Fleetio will automatically void meter entries from this fuel integration with a void reason of 'Meter Source Disabled'.

If you need to unvoid a meter entry, follow the process in Meter Entry - Mark as Void, Un-mark as Void.

Archive Fuel Cards

You can Archive a fuel card to remove it from your list of Active fuel cards and stop transaction import.

TIP: Learn more in Archive Fuel Cards.

Add Multiple FLEETCOR Accounts

Some larger organizations will administer multiple FLEETCOR Accounts, each designated by a different FLEETCOR Fleet Number. Each Account / Fleet Number may be configured within Fleetio.

NOTE: Multiple FLEETCOR Accounts may be integrated with a single Fleetio Account, but a single FLEETCOR Account may not be integrated with multiple Fleetio Accounts.

Follow the same steps for adding a new account to add additional FLEETCOR account(s), noting that a separate Data Release form is required for EACH Account.

Once complete, you will see each FLEETCOR Account listed and Enabled separately, but all fuel cards will be available to view and manage by clicking the More Actions Button and selecting Manage Card Assignments.

IMPORTANT: Use caution when mapping cards from multiple FLEETCOR Accounts, as card numbers may be the same or similar.

Delete FLEETCOR Fuel Card Integration

If you no longer need to integrate Fleetio with your FLEETCOR cards, a Fleetio Account Owner or Administrator can delete the integration.

Deleting a FLEETCOR integration removes fuel cards, fuel card mappings, and unassigned fuel transactions. Deleting the integration does NOT remove Fuel Entries that have already been created for vehicles.

Select Integrations from your Account Menu. Click the More Actions Button for the FLEETCOR account, then select Delete.

In the pop-up, type DELETE in all caps, then click Delete Fleetcor Integration to confirm.

IMPORTANT: If you remove your integration, Fleetio will immediately stop importing fuel transactions. Be sure to note the warnings in the "Confirm Action" message. You will need to add all subsequent Fuel Entries via manual entry, import, or another integration.

FLEETCOR/Comdata Supported & Non-Supported Cards

FLEETCOR acquired Comdata in 2014. Together, they offer a variety of fuel cards that can be integrated with Fleetio.

TIP: Learn more in Supported Fuel Cards, or use our Fuel Card Search Tool.
