Car Trak Personal Edition Description

Application that tracks automotive vehicle mileage Program Description: Car Trak is a Windows® application that tracks automotive vehicle mileage, maintenance, expenses, and fuel economy (MPG, L/100km | KPL, or MPL). It provides the "average" person with an easy to use interface and presents a full analysis of Fuel, Maintenance, Repairs, and Other expenses in a concise "summary" fashion, while keeping the full "detail" entries always available for examination or edits (if necessary). In other words ... you don't have to be a professional "Fleet Manager" to use and understand Car Trak and its reports! The program is available in two "flavors" --- the Personal Edition includes all features & functions but is limted to five (5) vehicles maximum, while the Commercial Edition offers an unlimited number of vehicles and reduced pricing for additional multi-user licenses. Some of the major features include: * Options to use U.S. (miles, gallons, MPG) -OR- Metric (kilometers, liters, L/100km or, optionally, Km per Liter) -OR- U.K. (miles, liters, miles per liter) measurements. * You can enter as much or as little as you want in order to track the "categories" that interest you. (For example, if you're only interested in tracking your fuel economy and expenses you can ignore the other categories and their corresponding functions.) * Any data displayed in the various 'data grids' can be exported to a tab-delimited text file for later import into a spreadsheet or other 3rd party applications. * You can easily switch between vehicles in the Car Trak system using a convenient drop-down listing. * The program's Summary tab folder will furnish you with a "snapshot" of your current expenses to date, along with key calculated and "comparative" fields which help you determine if your vehicle is developing a problem or needs service. * Scheduled Maintenance and Inspections, as well as user-defined Inspection Groups, can be set up for each vehicle in the system. Once set up the next due and last performed information will be automatically maintained by the program, allowing you to print a Scheduled Maintenance Due report (or a Work Order for your mechanic) whenever you wish. *Scheduled maintenance can be set up and tracked using any combination of dates, odometer, and/or engine hours. * The Fuel Log tab folder not only displays your individual data entry "detail" but also calculates the distance driven since the previous Fuel entry, cost per gallon/liter, and miles per gallon (or L/100km or KPL or MPL) for each item entered. Additionally, a line (or bar) graph plotting the MPGs (or L/100kms or KPLs or MPLs) for the last 10 fillups is displayed. * The Repairs/Other tab rounds out the "categories," allowing entry of non-scheduled services/repairs and miscellaneous items. Version 4 adds the ability to create your own user-defined categories as a 'sub-set' of the built-in Other category, along with the option to include (or exclude) invidual expense items in the calculated Total Operating Cost for a vehicle. * Maintenance/Inspection expense entries are simplified by letting you add the respective service items performed from a listing of the vehicle's "scheduled" items. (You can manually add a "non-scheduled" item if necessary.) * Reports include Scheduled Maintenance Due (as a report or 'work order), Scheduled Maintenance List, Fuel Log/Expense, Fuel Log Summary, Fuel Log Summary by Fuel Type, Fuel Log Summary by Month/Year, Service Log/Expense, Service Log Summary by Month/Year, Total Expense Summary, Total Expense Summary by Month/Year, Vehicle Listing, and Vehicle Statistics & Summary. New reports in version 4 include a Fuel Cost Graph and a Fuel Economy Graph. * Full print preview with user-selectable report styles, fonts, and colors. ALL reports can be output to the printer or saved to an HTML file. * A Custom Report function allows you to design your own 'search criteria' to view (and optionally print) only the data you want to see. These custom report 'definitions' can now be saved for re-use at a later time (good for 'recurring' type reports). * To help you review the various features/functions of the program a Sample Vehicle File is included. * Context-sensitive Help is always available. * Major Version registration license remains valid for all minor upgrade releases (4.1, 4.2, 4.3 etc)... see our upgrade policy on the Home page. Minimum System Requirements: * Windows 98/Me/2000/2003/XP/Vista operating system * Pentium (or Pentium-compatible) CPU (266 MHz for satisfactory performance) * 64MB of physical/installed memory (128MB recommended for satisfactory performance) * SVGA monitor with a minimum 800x600 display resolution AND 16-bit (or better) 'color depth' setting * Hard disk drive with 3.8MB of available space for installation * Windows compatible printer for 'hard copy' reports
