How to track average daily fuel cost to identify vehicles with above-normal spending?
In Jestor's fleet management app, a chart shows daily fuel cost over the last 30 days, along with the amount of liters fueled, letting you calculate the average and quickly spot where spending is above what's expected.
Why track cost per day instead of just the monthly total?
A monthly fuel total hides important variations: a single day with spending far above average can go unnoticed within an overall sum. Viewing cost day by day makes it easier to spot unusual peaks and investigate whether a specific vehicle is consuming more than it should.
How to track this indicator in Jestor?
- Every fueling event is logged with the amount spent and liters fueled.
- The dashboard shows total fuel cost for the last 30 days, along with the daily cost chart.
- When registering a vehicle, its fuel consumption per liter is marked, letting you calculate the expected average spend for that specific vehicle.
- Comparing actual spend against the expected average lets you spot where consumption is above normal.
