The Fleet Plans module allows you to experiment with voyage and cargo allocation in different scenarios without making any changes to your master fleetplan.
Board layout
The board has two main areas, unallocated voyages on the left, and allocated voyages on the right. For Cargo Management only the allocated area is visible.
Each element in the board represents either a voyage with cargoes, or a vessel open position.

Port call timeline and cargos
On the left side of the voyage card all the arrival times and port names are listed. The exception is the ballast port which has the voyage start date listed. The total cargo gross weight is listed under the port name.
If you are in the "Cargo Management" tab, the cargos on the voyage are shown on the right side. Each cargo has the load port and discharge port, charterer and cargo gross weight displayed. Cargos can be moved by dragging and dropping between voyages on the same trade.
Actions
In the open positions board you can drag and drop voyages to allocate or unallocate them, move them between vessels and change their order on a vessel.
Click any voyage card to open the voyage drawer and access additional information and actions.
In the cargo management board, you can drag and drop cargoes between voyages. When moving a cargo, you can either move it 100% or split it and just move a part of it.
Clicking on a cargo opens the cargo drawer and gives access to additional information and actions.
Selecting a scenario
At the top center of the screen, the selected scenario is displayed.
To create a new scenario follow the step-by-step guide: Create Scenario
Settings
Number of columns
You can select the number of columns to show in the board either by moving the slider or by typing in a number.
Column grouping
The column grouping decides which column a card should go into. The default setting is to group by vessel, but you can also select load area or discharge area. The area groupings may be limited if you have an selected area report under account preferences.
Row grouping
The row grouping setting decides how the cards are grouped vertically. By default this setting is off. You can also select to group by month or week.
