The board has two main areas- unallocated voyages (Commitments) on the left, and allocated voyages on the right.
Each element in the board represents either a voyage (unallocated), a voyage with cargo(s) (allocated), a vessel, a vessel open position card or a last port call card.
We call the yellow card on the vessel columns the vessel open position card. It displays the start of the schedule of each ship that is displayed on the board. You can click on the card to open the vessel open position drawer. For any scenario that is not the MASTER, you can edit the port and date of the vessel open position. This changes where your ship starts in the scenario and reschedules the consecutive voyages.
In the Commitments column, the left-most column of the board, we have a list of Unallocated Voyages with a new design:
The Allocated Voyages Card also contains a detailed timeline:
On the left side of the Voyage Card, all the arrival times are listed. The date and time listed for the Ballast Port is the voyage start date. On the right side of the timeline, the port names are listed, including the Ballast Port. The total cargo gross weight on board after the port call is listed under the port name.
Number of Displayed Ports
It is possible to change how many ports are listed at a time by using the settings. The minimum amount of ports that can be displayed is 3, the Ballast Port, the first load port and the last discharge port of a voyage. The number in the blue circle indicates how many ports are hidden.
For each vessel we have a card with information about when it is next available. This can be found after the last voyage in a vessel's schedule.
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.
You have a large variety of filters available on the board. Filtering for Commitments (left-most column) and Allocated Voyages (rest of the columns) is separate. Filtering is persisted when navigating between the boards as well as when navigating to different menu items.
You can read more about the actions here: Voyage Actions.
You can select the number of columns to show in the board either by moving the slider or by typing in a number.
You can select the number of ports to show in the port call timeline either by moving the slider or by typing in a number. The ballast, first loading and last discharging ports are always visible.
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 depends on the selected area report under account preferences.
The row grouping setting decides how the cards are grouped vertically. By default there is no row grouping. You can also select to group by month or week.

The Fleet Plans module allows you to allocate voyages and cargoes in MASTER and different scenarios without making any changes to your master Fleet Plan.
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.
Below the scenario selector, there are three tabs to access different views of the scenario schedule:
In the FAS board, we now have a 'master' filter, that will filter voyages and cargoes in both the Open Position Board and the Cargo Management Board, more efficiently. We have the filtering possibilities for Next Week, Next 2 Weeks, Next Month, Next 3 Months, Next Year and Future (meaning today and beyond). The default is set at 'Next 3 Months'.
In the Open Position Board, the Allocated Voyages are filtered with respect to the Voyage End Date field. This is the same in the Cargo Management Board (with cargoes as well), but in the Commitments column the Unallocated Cargoes are filtered with respect to the Laycan From Date field.
To select a different scenario, click the expand buttonnext to the name to open a list of all scenarios, except Budgets. The MASTER scenario is pinned to the top of the selector for easy accessibility.
The Cargo Management Board displays all allocated voyages and the cargos allocated to them. It also shows the Unallocated cargos in Commitments column. For details on the Vessel Open Positions, voyage cards and board settings, see Open Positions Board.
The Cargo Management Board displays all cargos belonging to the selected scenario. In the left-most column, we display the unallocated cargos (Commitments column), which are cargos that have not yet been allocated to a voyage. The other columns display voyage cards with the cargoes allocated to them.‌
The left-most column, Commitments, contains all the unallocated cargos. Each cargo contains the fields:
The right side of the Cargo Management Board contains all the allocated voyages and their cargos. On the right side of a voyage card, the cargo cards allocated (or dragged) to the voyage are displayed. Each cargo displays the Charterer, Gross Weight and Cargo Status, while illustrating graphically the Load Ports and Discharge Ports. These cargos can be moved by dragging and dropping between the voyages of the same Trade:
With this newer design of the cargos on the voyage card, you will be able to graphically see at what ports a cargo has its Load- and Discharge ports. You can easily track all the Port Call rows of the cargo by looking at the vertical span of the specific cargo (the blue area). It is also possible to scroll to the right to see all the cargoes allocated on the same Port Calls.
The Cargo Cards also has indication lines to help you interpret the Laydays and Arrival Windows for each cargo, graphically.‌
Laydays: indication line at the top of the cargo. Arrival Window: indication line at the bottom of the cargo.‌
Color indicator:‌
if early: blue
if late: red
if on time: normal / no color
By hovering over a cargo card or on a port call row, a tooltip can be viewed. Fields in the tooltip that contain no data are hidden:
The following fields are available within the cargo card- and port call tooltips:

The Voyages tab can be found in the Fleet Plans module. It contains a list of all voyages that can be found within a scenario. This includes voyages of status unallcoated, allocated, estimated, nominated, etc.
The following voyage information can viewed from the list:
Clicking on a voyage opens the voyage drawer and gives access to additional information and actions.
You can read more about the actions here: Voyage Actions.
There are several sorting and filtering options available for you to narrow down what you include in the list view.
The scheduler board gives users an overview of the voyages that need to be scheduled. It shows unallocated, allocated and nominated voyages. The allocated and nominated voyages can be viewed on the bottom half of the board (Schedule), while the unallocated voyages can be viewed on the top half (Commitments).
The board is based on a Gantt schema, with the column headers being dates and the row headers being COA and SPOT for the Commitments section and vessel names for the Schedule section. The red vertical line indicates today's date.
Commitment bars can found in the Commitments area and contain information about an unallocated voyage including Charterer, Laycan dates and Commodity. The ballast port and first loading port of a voyage can be found to the left of the bar, and the last discharging port to the right. The laycan period can also be viewed on top of each bar.
When hovering over a commitment bar, a tooltip will pop up with additional information about the voyage:
Scheduler bars can be found in the Schedule section and contain information about either allocated or nominated voyages, containing Reference No, Voyage Status, first Load Port and last discharge port. If the Laycan dates have been set, a Laycan indicator can also be viewed on a schedule bar. A timeline of the ballast and port calls can be viewed on top of each bar.
When hovering over a scheduler bar, a tooltip will pop up with additional information about the voyage:
More additional information on the voyage and its cargos are displayed in the voyage drawer. This can accessed by clicking on a commitment- or schedule bar.
The action bar on top of the board allows for filtering of voyages as well as selecting the period which the board will show. Commitments and schedules can be filtered separately.
It is possible to drag and drop the bars to unallocate or allocate a voyage. A scheduled voyage can be unallocated by dropping it into the commitments area. A commitment voyages can be allocated by dropping it onto an empty vessel row, or behind another allocated voyage.
You can read more about the actions here: Voyage Actions.
Inside a chosen , you will be able to create new voyages based on the vessels available. Next to each of the vessel names, there is a icon. In each of these, you can create a new voyage based on that vessel.
You can read more here to learn about the different types of voyages to create: .

It is possible to access the cargo drawer by clicking on any allocated voyage in any of the boards/lists in FAS (or outside), and then opening the 'Cargo' tab. Also, in the Cargo Management Board, you can access the cargo drawer by clicking on a commitment to the left, or directly on an allocated cargo on the right (on the allocated voyages).
Inside a chosen scenario, you will be able to create new cargoes in FAS based on allocated or unallocated voyages.
In the Cargo Management Board, next to the 'Commitment' title, there is a icon. Here, you can find all the different types of cargoes to create, and their modals. Follow the same steps as here to create a new cargo. The new cargo will be placed in the commitments column based on the given Laydays. If not given, then they will be placed at the bottom of the list.
On any allocated voyage in FAS (or outside), you can find the 'Cargo' tab at the top of the voyage drawer. Above the cargo list, there is a icon there. Also here, you can create the different types of cargoes, and display their modals. But- there is a new design here as well:
Please click on the picture to get better view of the details. The key details are the same as earlier described here, but as you can see- there is some difference in the Timeline component this time. On a voyage, we have port calls. These will be matched with the new cargo ports of the cargo you want to create. The CP/PC row marked with 'NEW' contains the new cargo ports that are added from the fields on the left-most section, meaning port calls 'Trondheim' and 'Stavanger' didn't exist before, but are now added. At the same time, we know that 'Bergen' and 'Oslo' port calls existed from before, so if you want to add a cargo port 'Oslo', it will now be directly linked to the port call (and the 'NEW' icon is not displayed). Read more about the drag and drop features and the new Create Cargo Port modal down below.
On the allocated cargoes mentioned above, you will have drag and drop options on both sides of time timeline. On the left side, you will be able to drag a cargo port to match with a corresponding port call, but they both have to have the same reason for call. On the right side, you will be able to drag the whole CP/PC row to change the order in these ports on the voyage. The same features are implemented in the new Create Cargo Port modal:
Read about the new Create Cargo Port modal for unallocated cargoes here.
