Dunno about the 777, but a certain amount of difference between fuel summation unit and uploaded fuel is permissible. On our 737 up to 300kg, everything above that required a dripstick reading which in itself is a messy and failure prone process. Now, we cannot load nearly as much fuel as a 777, so i would expect quite bit more margin on the big beast.
