There are three possibilities to create a scenario:
create from scratch
create from master fleetplan
copy existing scenario
In the scenario list you have a button on the top left to create a new scenario. You can create a scenario from scratch or create a scenario from the master fleetplan. You can also copy an existing scenario.
When creating a scenario from scratch you follow the following four steps:
Enter scenario name
Select the vessels to be included in the scenario by clicking on them.
Select the voyages to be included in he scenario by clicking on them.
Save the scenario.
To deselect vessels or voyages when creating the scenario, click on them.
All voyages in the scenario will be commitments in the new scenario. For each vessel an open position is created.
When using the master fleetplan to create a scenario, all voyages in the master fleetplan and their allocation are copied. Thus, unallocated voyages will be unallocated in the scenario and allocated voyages will be allocated to the same vessel. The first position of each vessel in the scenario schedule is defined by the start of the first voyage on the vessel.
The new scenario is called Master Fleetplan Scenario with a date and time stamp of the creation.
To copy a scenario open its drawer in the scenario list. Select the action copy in the drawer to create a copy of the scenario.
To change a scenario, navigate to the scenarios menu item and open the scenario drawer by clicking on the respective scenario name.
You cannot use edit, delete or edit name for the MASTER scenario, since this is the on-going plan connected to all other VMS functionalities.
You have the following actions in the drawer:
view in open positions board
edit (change name, vessels, and voyages)
delete
copy
edit scenario name
view audit log
access and upload attachments
Deleting a scenario removes it from the database. There is no recycle bin or the like to retrieve a deleted scenario.
