Even on the basic 737 without the fuel preselect, we're really talking about 3 ON-OFF switches, one for each fuel tank. Figure out how much you need in each tank, open the required valves, close each valve 20-30kg below the desired tank quantity.

Hardly a difficult task compared to what is required to actually fly the airplane.
