# Cargo Management Board

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](/release-6.7/fleet-allocation-and-scheduling/getting-started/fleet-plans/open-positions-board.md).

## Board Layout

The Cargo Management Board displays all cargos belonging to the selected scenario. In the left-most column, we display the Unallocated Cargos, which are cargoes that have not been allocated to a voyage yet. The other columns display Voyage Cards with the cargoes allocated to them.‌

### Unallocated Cargos‌

![Fields of Unallocated Cargo in Commitments Tab](/files/YFhTomj96ykwjdXiqgO4)

The left-most column, Commitments, contains all the Unallocated Cargos. This column displays all cargos with status "Unallocated" that belongs to the currently selected scenario. Each Cargo contains the fields:

<table><thead><tr><th data-type="number">Reference</th><th>Fields</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>1</td><td>Charterer</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>Cargo Booking Status</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>Trade</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>Cargo Ports</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>Commodity</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td>Layday- and Arrival Window dates</td></tr><tr><td>7</td><td>Quantity and Measurement Unit</td></tr></tbody></table>

### Cargoes on the Voyage Card‌

The right side of the Cargo Management Board contains all the Allocated Voyages and their cargoes. On the right side of a Voyage Card, the Cargo Cards allocated (or dragged) to the voyage are showing. Each cargo displays the charterer, gross weight and cargo status, while illustrating graphically the load ports and discharging ports. These cargos can be moved by dragging and dropping between the voyages of the same trade.

{% hint style="info" %}
With a newer design of the cargos on the Voyage Card, you will be able to graphically see at what ports a cargo has its loading- and discharging ports. You can easily track all the Port Call rows of the cargo by looking at the vertical span of the specific cargo card (the blue area). It is also possible to scroll to the right to see all the cargoes allocated on the same Port Calls.
{% endhint %}

### Laydays and Arrival Window Indicators

![Indicator Lines](/files/-Ma7y-KZhccSINKWTG2i)

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:**&#x200C;

* if **early**: blue
* if **late**: red
* if **on time**: normal / no colour&#x20;

### Tooltips

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:

## Actions

In the Cargo Management Board, you can drag and drop cargos between voyages. When moving a cargo, you can either move it 100% or split it and just move a part of it. It also possible to drag and drop cargos to and from the Commitments column in order to unallocate or allocate it.

By clicking at the **Create**<img src="/files/-M23aB95JDSUt7kYOdWo" alt="" data-size="line"> in the top right corner, you will be able to create a cargo, or create a cargo from a budget or CoA template (see [Create Cargos](/release-6.7/voyage-management-system/step-by-step-guides/cargoes/create-cargoes.md) for more information). The modals require fields such as Load port, Discharge port, Charterer and Commodity.&#x20;

Clicking on a cargo opens the [cargo drawer](/release-6.7/voyage-management-system/step-by-step-guides/cargoes.md) and gives access to additional information and actions.

## Filtering

![](/files/TIzgJq3N0GNxzn21Jg5k)

You have a large variety of filters available on this board, as well. Filtering for Commitments (left-most column) and the Allocated Voyages and cargoes (rest of the columns) is separate. Filtering is persisted when navigating between the boards as well as when navigating to different menu items.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.dataloy.com/release-6.7/fleet-allocation-and-scheduling/getting-started/fleet-plans/cargo-management-board.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
