IFTA Fuel Tax Reporting demo
The quarterly IFTA return as a worked sheet, challenged as the state’s auditor would read it before two people sign. 1:24
What the demo shows
Works each quarter’s IFTA fuel tax return from ELD miles and fuel records, for motor carriers
Seven agents build miles by jurisdiction from GPS trip records, match every fuel card, yard tank and receipt line to its state and gallons, and fill the return state by state. A challenger reads the draft as the base jurisdiction’s auditor would, catching reefer fuel on a tractor card, charges missing required receipt details and GPS gaps after a device swap, while agents ask the fuel-card provider and vendors in fixed fields and rebuild gaps from bills of lading, labeled. The fuel tax specialist steers the run, for example to take out a sold truck, and signs, and the assistant controller opens the sheet and any rebuilt trip, co-signs and files.
