Fuel Order Suggestions
Projects how full each tank will be when the tanker arrives and tells you how much to order up to a safe-fill target — flagging tanks at risk of running dry as urgent.
Shift Tracker's order-suggestions panel forecasts each tank's expected sales until the tanker arrives (from a day-of-week × hour-of-day average of recent weeks), projects the level at arrival, and gives you the 'order this much now' number to reach a safe-fill target. Enter a tanker arrival date to plan multi-day / holiday orders, and spot run-dry risks instantly. It's an estimate / advisory — the final call is yours.

Frequently asked questions
How is the order suggestion calculated?
For each tank: projected stock at arrival = current stock − expected sales until the tanker arrives. The recommended order is the litres needed to top that up to a safe-fill target (a fraction of capacity).
What is the demand forecast based on?
A day-of-week × hour-of-day average of recent weeks, so it reflects rush hours and the weekly rhythm. It's a statistical estimate, not a guarantee — accuracy improves as a new station accumulates data.
Why do I enter a tanker arrival date?
The further out the arrival, the more sales happen in that window. Entering the date grows the suggestion to cover all expected demand until then — ideal for holiday or multi-day closures.
What about a tank with unknown capacity?
Because the safe-fill target depends on capacity, the order amount isn't computed when capacity is unknown — but you still see the run-dry risk and the projected stock. Set the tank capacity and the suggestion appears automatically.
