This overview is designed to help our partners and prospective customers understand the CRM.COM Fleet Management Billing solution. The guide explains how CRM.COM can help a petrol company offer its commercial customers full fleet features, such as recurring post-bill or pre-paid billing, fleet control and reporting, product level authorization authorisation and commercial policy, credit control and vehicle management.
Fleet management and billing
CRM.COM is provided as a cloud service that provides all the fleet management and billing functionality to cover the needs of petrol companies. The built-in ready-made processes allow petrol companies to set up their fleet scheme and be live within weeks.
The station manager, through the station portal, can monitor the performance of their outlet for the fleet business, optionally process manually fleet transactions manually and at the end of the week, will receive an automated self-billing invoice with the amount to be credited.
Commercial Customers
Commercial customers, i.e. fleet companies, are set up an account in CRM.COM and are assigned a credit and usage limit. The drivers are identified at the station by presenting their physical card or via the OTP generated by the fleet management mobile app. The transaction is authorised based on the allowed products, credit limit and usage limit. Billing is executed every week or month (configurable), and an invoice is raised and sent to the customers.
Customer Portal
The customer portal allows the fleet owner to login log in and manage the scheme as below:
