Comp Flt Pln: APU fuel and Taxi in fuel

Hi,

our company CFP doesn't have APU fuel nor Taxi in fuel,

we have only the Taxi out fuel which is defaulted at 200kg for the A320.

another question i would like to clarify is on the first sector est arrival fuel for example 7000kg, then the next sector fuel required will be again 7000kg.

so once we taxi in and use the APU for the transit, we are already short on fuel required by at least 200kg.

any suggestions?

some commanders are taking more fuel to account for this case.

our CFP total fuel consist of (trip fuel,cont 5%,altn,rsrv"30min",taxi"200kg" and extra).

the thing that it confusing me is the arrival fuel and the next sector departure fuel are the same !

thanks
