Key things to check that can affect your FTC figures.
Make sure your vehicle register is setup correctly.
Verify the FTC On-Road status for your fleet (Yes for heavy vehicles, No for light vehicles). This setting is important as it directly impacts your FTC calculations—heavy vehicles qualify for on-road claims, while light vehicles do not.
Ensure your vehicle category is correctly set or close to actual category, especially if using Prism’s estimated fuel figures, as this can impact the total fuel calculations for the month.
Reviewing your off road activity
Audit Reports feature on the home page of Prism contains reports that detail high concentration of driving and idling vehicle activity on public and non-public roads. These reports help users identify mapping errors(if any) and ensure locations are captured correctly.
