Transfer Cargoes

A cargo transfer is a type of transshipment where a cargo transported on two voyages. The cargo is transported on the first voyage to one port and then further transported on a second voyage to its final port.

You start with a cargo with a load and discharge port which represents the first part of the cargo's journey (on the first voyage). From a system perspective, the action "transfer" creates a new cargo for the second part of the journey (on the second voyage). The two cargoes are synchronised such that e.g. the cargo quantity on the two is always the same.

Transfer cargoes are listed at the bottom of the cargo drawer under "Relets and Transshipments".

The voyage schedule section will show an icon next to the days in port, indicating whether the port calls of a transfer is scheduled at the same time. If the vessel handing over the cargo is set to arrive later than the vessel loading the cargo, the transfer is indicated as "broken".
