EFS Fuel Import
Version Prerequisites
3rd Party Application Configuration Requirements
Carrier must contact EFS and ask to be setup to access their fuel in the supported file format (EFS only has these files available via FTP):
EFS LLC (TCH Platform) 110 Data File Format – Version 8
EFS needs to setup the carrier to be able to access their fuel files via FTP connection. The carrier’s IT department will need to set up the FTP client on their workstation so that they can access the EFS dat files.
