Fuel Dispenser Setup displays all the Fuel Dispensers currently in the system. Dispensers can be Inserted (Added), Edited or Deleted and descriptions changed. Making chnages to this information will affect sales numbers in the Fuel Sales screen.
Dispensers must be set up to sell and track Fuel. Before Dispensers can be setup, Tanks and Fuel Products must be setup first.
In most cases Dispensers will be set up to based upon Fuel Grade sales.

Not all POS systems support sending hose position information back.
