Creating a voyage charter is fast and easy. The minimum amount of details required is a vessel and a port for loading and discharging.
Open the Voyages module from the menu on the left.
On the top right corner, click the icon.
Select Create Voyage Charterer.
Fill in the details manually, or choose between using a CoA Template Cargo or an existing unallocated cargo as basis for the voyage.
Click the Create-button.
To create the voyage using a CoA template as a basis, click the Use CoA Template Cargo button in the top of the modal. This will bring up another window, allowing you to select a template from a list of CoA templates. More details can be found here: Create Cargo From CoA Template.
Using a CoA template will give the voyage and cargo the same Company and Business Unit as the CoA.
It is possible to create a new voyage and allocate an unallocated cargo by using the Use Unallocated Cargo button in the top of the modal. Clicking it will bring up another window with a list of unallocated cargos. Filter and search as needed, and select a cargo from the list.
After choosing a cargo, the create voyage modal will be automatically filled in with all the details from the cargo. Only the fields that are not coming from the cargo will remain editable.
After choosing a vessel, the previous Port on the Vessel will be set as Ballast Port. This can be overridden by entering another Port, if no Ballast Port is set then the first Load Port will be used.
Entering Stowage Factor, Quantity or Volume will automatically recalculate the others. If Commodity is selected the Stowage Factor will default from the Commodity.
