To further streamline administration and save our customers' time, we are currently developing a new, requested solution in Flex HRM Travel. In the near future, we plan to launch an API endpoint that will enable automated updates of average fuel prices. The solution is particularly aimed at our partners, payroll agencies, and larger companies looking to enhance their efficiency.

The Goal: Less manual work and increased precision

We know that manually updating average fuel prices can be a time-consuming and repetitive task, with an inherent risk of data entry errors. Our goal in automating this process is to free up valuable time for administrators and ensure that fuel benefit calculations are always based on accurate and current data.

How it's planned to work

The upcoming solution will be useful for companies that use Average price for calculation of fuel benefit, a setting configured in the Settings > Travel > Car trips> General view.

Via the new API, external systems will be able to submit and update prices for specific vehicle types and date ranges. The information will then be updated directly in the price list found under Settings > Travel > Car journeys > Vehicle types, eliminating the need for manual entry.

Expected benefits for your business

  • Time savings: Eliminate the manual administration of fuel prices.

  • Accurate data: Reduce the risk of errors and ensure benefit calculations are always correct.

  • Efficiency: Significantly simplify management, especially for those who administer multiple companies.

Stay tuned! We are working to finalize this feature and will provide more information on a specific launch date. Technical documentation will be made available in our API Help section upon release. Keep an eye on our upcoming news articles!
