The open positions board gives an overview of the allocation of voyages that need to be scheduled. It shows commitments in the leftmost column and all allocated voyages in the other columns. There are several settings to refine the view located in the top right.
1. Vertical grouping options: None, Week, Month
2. Column grouping of allocated voyages: Vessels, Areas
3. Show one column further to the left or right
4. Filtering
5. Switch to Gantt Board (Schedule view)

#### Filtering 
You can filter which voyages you would like to see by using the button in the top right corner
You can separately filter commitments and allocated voyages (open positions) by many different criteria. If you select several options in one criterion, an OR filter is applied. If you filter by different categories at the same time, these are combined using the operator AND.
