    General info

    The Bunker Stock list can be found in the Voyage drawer under the tab called Bunkers.

    Freight Rate Tiers

    In the Freight Rate Tiers tab, you can create, edit and delete different freight rate tiers for the cargo. It is also possible to choose between a tiered and a volume rate model.

    Tiered: In tiered pricing, the per-unit freight rates are assigned to quantity-based ranges (tiers). When calculating the total freight, quantities are purchased from successive tiers, starting from the lowest. Example: In the below example, a cargo of 8000MT would have a freight rate of 11 USD for the first 4999MT and a freight rate of USD 12 for the remaining 3001MT. The freight rate will show as a weighted average on the cargo.

    Volume: Here too, the freight rate is quantity-based. However, the per-unit freight rate is dependent on the range within which the total quantity falls. So, under this model, you would define the quantity ranges and the per-unit freight rate for each. Example: In the below example, a cargo of 8000MT would have a freight rate of 12 USD for the entire quantity.

    If a cargo has one or more tiers in this section, the Freight Rate and Rule field in the

    Opening Balance

    Each list starts with the opening balance of the stock. The opening balances displays the balance of the bunker stocks at the beginning of the voyage and are generated based on the previous fixed voyage. When creating voyage estimates the opening balances are generated based on the last fixed voyage on the vessel.

    Opening balances can be updated on voyages with status Estimate or Unallocated to be able to do quick calculations. Once a voyage is fixed, the opening balance will be recalculated based on the previous fixed voyage and will no longer be editable.

    Opening balances are also editable on voyages where the voyage start date is fixed.

    Edit opening balance

    To edit an opening balance on voyages where this is enabled,

    • click on the opening balance row and a modal with the editable values will appear

    Voyage Comparison

    A functionality to compare voyages' values to each other to get the best overview.

    The comparison button can be found as a primary action in the Voyage drawer:

    Comparison functionality in the Voyage drawer

    This will open a new page where you will be able to see a overview of the voyages to compare, copy the voyages you want to compare and/or open the Voyage drawer of the voyages:

    Voyage Comparison view with highlighting of differences compared to the base voyage
    Voyage Comparison with only differences shown

    For the initial release version of this tool, you'll be able to see and modify details on your vessel, cargo and voyage. Some fields may be greyed out, for the same reasons you might not be able to modify them in the voyage or cargo drawer normally.

    In the top left you will find two buttons; Highlight Differences and Show Only Differences, which will enable or disable the respective features. By default, Highlight Differences is turned on.

    The top header shows the voyage reference number, and a button to copy and remove the voyage from the comparison. Clicking on the voyage reference will open the voyage drawer. From here, you can make all the changes you are used to, and the comparison will update accordingly.

    To the right of the rightmost voyage, you'll find a big grey button that when clicked, opens a dropdown menu. Here you can add an existing voyage to the comparison, or create a brand new one.

    The comparison sections

    The Vessel section of the comparison allows you to choose and edit many values that can change your result. Want to see how another vessel would perform on a given voyage? How much difference will different speed orders or bunker prices make? Make a change, and see how it affects your result and TCE.

    The Cargo section displays information about one cargo at a time. In the event your voyage has multiple cargos, click on the Reference dropdown to see and select another cargo.

    The Cargo Ports row shows you the first load and discharge port for the cargo. If you have a longer schedule, hover over the row to see the entire schedule as a tooltip.

    Changing any of the fields here behaves as if they were changed from the Cargo drawer. For instance, setting a high freight rate will automatically update the rule to Lumpsum, and the calculations are being carried out as such.

    In the Voyage section, you are only able to set the start date of the voyage. Like the Cargo Ports row in the Cargo section, the Schedule row only shows two ports. Hovering your mouse over the row will bring up a tooltip showing the entire voyage schedule.

    Overview

    The voyage drawer is also split up in different sections; Vessel, Cargo List, Cargo (the Performance Cargo), Schedule, Profit/Loss Summary and Speed & Consumption.

    For a TC voyage, the drawer has the Time Charter Contract section instead of the Cargo section.

    Drawer Actions

    On the left hand-side, we have the vessel name chip, which is clickable and will forward you to the linked . The number is the reference number of the voyage, and to the left we have the status. The statuses are within a dropdown menu which you can :

    Transfer Cargo

    A cargo transfer is a type of transshipment where a cargo is transported on two voyages. The cargo is transported on the first voyage to an intermediate 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 cargoes 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 original cargo will receive cargo type "Has Transfer", and the new cargo will receive cargo type "Transfer."

    The following fields are synchronised:

    • cargo quantity and measurement unit

    • commodity

    • discharge rate + terms of has transfer cargo = load rate + terms of transfer cargo

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

    Transferring a Cargo

    1. Open a cargo drawer.

    2. At the top right in the cargo drawer, click More and select Transfer.

    3. Fill in the form fields:

    The discharge port of the original cargo will be the load port of the transfer cargo.

    Various Grid

    Various costs and revenues are now accessible directly from the voyage drawer in addition to the existing Various Cost/Revenue tab. This change reduces the steps needed to view and modify the variouses connected to the voyage.

    Figure 1: Various grid

    Filtering

    Along with the base filters available in the grid, the Various grid includes quick filtering options. These quick filters allow you to filter variouses by type, such as cost or revenue, and by the source type, such as Voyage or Cargo. Details of these options are shown in Figure 2.

    Figure 2: Various grid quick filter

    Selected Cargo and Port Call

    The Various grid and Cargoes grid are linked through the selected cargo. When a specific cargo is selected and "Cargo" is chosen in the type quick filter, the Various grid will show only the entries associated with the selected cargo, rather than all cargo-related variouses in the voyage.

    To display all cargo variouses, de-select or clear the "Cargo" option in the quick filter.

    This behavior also applies when selecting a port call in the Port Calls, when done, the Various grid will display entries for the selected port call only.

    Note: Voyage variouses are not affected by these selections and will continue to display unless excluded through the filter options.

    Creating a new Various

    To create a new Voyage Various, click the blue plus sign in the column header. This opens a modal where you can specify the type of various to be created.

    Voyage Schedule

    A section in a Voyage drawer that visualizes the schedule and port-call-related information.

    The Voyage schedule visualization may be found on the right-hand side of a voyage drawer.

    This section is highly customizable: e.g., you may change the voyage start date, lock it, edit the Voyage's speed, update the port call sequence, and much more!

    Voyage Schedule section

    The Schedule Timeline is a fully interactive module. Each port represents a draggable block - if you reorder the blocks, you will update the port call sequence on the opened voyage correspondingly:

    Voyage Schedule - reordering the Port Calls sequence

    Next, each Port Call block is clickable, and it brings up a Port Call drawer.

    The small ovals inside of each Port Call block includes a piece of related information: Days at Sea + Extra Days at Sea, Actual Speed, and Distance between Ports. Every oval is clickable and allows editing corresponding sea passages.

    Moreover, the Port Call blocks include a small functions tooltip that provides the following actions on the voyage schedule sequence: show Port Cost history overview, create new Port Call to the current schedule, edit the selected Port Call, or delete the Port Call.

    Edit Port Call

    To edit a port call in the schedule, click the pencil icon in the functions tooltip. A popup modal then shows where main details of the port call can be changed.

    Creating, editing and deleting in the grid

    Changes to the grid, such as editing fields, adding new rows, copying data, or deleting entries, are applied across the system in real time, ensuring data consistency. Updates made in the grid will automatically reflect in all related drawers and pages, and vice versa.

    Main differences

    The full-screen drawer is designed to make it easier to make modifications to the voyage. This was done by replacing the different collapsible sections (Figure 1) with corresponding grids (Figure 2).

    The as well as the Vessel Section remains the same with the exception of an additional collapsible section for TC Out Contract.

    Map

    The map has also been moved to the left side of the drawer, and when expanded will appear in the center of the drawer (see Figure 3).

    Alternative routing and system preferences

    A key addition to the drawer is the ability to display an Alternative Route tab, controlled by a system preference. This setting can be enabled via the. When activated, the routing tab appears next to the map, providing easy access to alternative route options (see Figure 4).

    Press the menu iconto download the chart as an image (SVG or PNG), or a text file (CSV) that can be imported into spreadsheet software.

    The allocation dialogue is a three-step process. Once you have selected a vessel, a list of all the voyages on the vessel will appear. Sort and filter the list to find the exact voyage you want, select it, and a preview of the voyage schedule will appear, with cargo ports on the left, and port calls on the right. The scheduler will attempt to link the existing port calls on the voyage with the cargo's cargo ports. If no port call exists, a new one will be created at the end of the voyage. These are denoted by a blue "NEW" chip. You can re-arrange the port calls by dragging and dropping.
    A vessel has been selected, and the voyages on that vessel is displayed
    A voyage has been selected. The cargo port Trondheim will be linked to the existing Trondheim discharge port, while new port calls for Rotterdam and Bergen will be created.

    When allocating, the cargo will also have its company and business unit changed to the voyage's company and business unit. You can edit the cargo's company and/or business unit after the allocating if you want it to be different from the voyage's.

    Click Allocate to allocate the cargo. Any new necessary port calls will be created on the voyage.

    Voyages & Port Calls

    In the "Voyages & Port Calls" section of the vessel drawer, you will find the most important information about a vessel and its voyages.

    Vessel Details

    The "Vessel Details" section shows some key data points about the vessel such as DWT, Cubic Capacity, Draft and more. Click Expandto show more details and contact information for the vessel.

    Collasped Vessel Details section
    Expanded Vessel Details section

    Voyages

    This is a list of voyages on the opened vessel sorted by newest first. Clicking the icon will bring up a modal to customize which columns are visible. If there is an ongoing voyage in the list, it is indicated with a blue marker on the left side.

    Below, you will find a list of either Port Calls or Bunkers, and a button to toggle between the two different views.

    Port Calls

    While in Port Call view, clicking on a voyage row will list all port calls of the selected voyage, as well as the port calls from the previous and next voyage, if they exist. The port calls from the previous and next voyage will be in a slightly lighter colour, such that it is possible to tell them apart. Clicking directly on the reference number of the voyage will open up the Voyage drawer.

    Clicking on port calls in the list opens the corresponding port call's drawer where you can make can changes:

    The Port Calls list will display up to 30 items, and includes a separate scrolling functionality. By hovering over each of the "headers" (such as Voyage, Port, Reason for Call, etc.), you can also see an sorting array which will make you able to sort that specific column in either an ascending (ASC) or descending (DESC) order.

    Bunkers

    The Bunkers view removes the list in favour of up to three collapsible sections for the voyages. Similarly to the Port Calls view, clicking on a voyage row in the voyages list will select/open up the corresponding collapsible section, and fetch the data for the previous and next voyage:

    The top band of the section displays 4 columns; the reference number of the voyage, Opening Balance, Consumption and Closing Balance. Each of the latter three will show amount and price for up to 4 different bunker types, depending on which bunkers are actually being used by the vessel.

    Expanding the collapsible section will give you a table overview of each port, with reason for call, distance, speed etc., as well as a detailed breakdown of the bunkers consumed. Only the bunkers actually used will be displayed here.

    Resequence Voyages

    The resequence feature enables re-ordering the list of voyages assigned to a vessel. To utilize the feature, click the icon in the top right of the voyages list. This will bring up the Resequence Voyages modal.

    The user can now drag and drop the voyages to re-order them into the desired order. For example, the screenshot below illustrates voyage 7, which is being dragged down. It is expected that the item will have replaced voyage 6 after release:

    Any voyages that will have their sequence number changed, will have their previous old sequence number parenthesized.

    Clicking the Resequence button will update the fleetplan.

    Resequence Port Calls

    Port calls can also be resequenced to a different position within the previous, current, or next voyage. To resequence a port call, click the resequence symbol in the top right corner of the port calls list. A popup modal will then show and the port call can be dragged and dropped in the desired position (see screenshot below). Note that only one port call can be moved at a time. Also, only port calls after the last Arrived, Berthed or Departed port call can be moved in the list:

    Data grid

    This page outlines the basic functions of the new grids and provides examples to enhance your workflow.

    Base functionality

    The table below lists the base functions available in the grid header. With a a few exceptions, these functions are consistent across the different grids. The order matches the column headers in Figure 1.

    Figure 1: Column header base options
    Option
    Explanation

    Additional functionality

    Each column includes a built-in menu, accessible by clicking the vertical ellipsis icon (see Figure 2).

    Expanding the menu displays a list of options for the column (see Figure 3), including sorting, pinning the column's position, and column management options. Basic sorting can also be performed by clicking the arrow that appears when hovering over a column or by clicking the column header itself (see Figure 2).

    Modifying header position and width

    You can adjust the header's width by placing your cursor at the intersection between two columns and dragging to resize. To change a column's position, click and drag the column header.

    Row-modifications

    Each row in the grid includes a vertical ellipsis menu for row-specific options, typically located in the right-most column (see Figure 4). The menu's contents and available options depend on the grid type.

    or through the menu will directly impact the system data. For instance, selecting the delete option will remove both the row and its associated data.

    If the grid supports insertions, you can insert a new row before or after the currently selected row, as seen in Figure 4. However, this option may not be available in all grids. Some grids also support copying a row, along with its associated object.

    Opening existing drawers and modals

    The grid includes a column for opening the associated drawer or modal, located in the left-most column by default (see Figure 5). When clicking the icon, the results will be displayed on top of the full-screen drawer. As seen in Figure 6.

    Filters

    You can use the grid's filter option to create custom filters. Some grids also offer, which are not customizable, unlike the base filters in the column header.

    Column aggregation

    The new grid allows you to apply aggregations to numerical columns. This option is accessible via the vertical ellipsis menu that appears when hovering over a column. Figure 8 shows the menu and the result of applying the "sum" option to the distance column.

    Suggestions on how to use grid efficiently

    This section offers tips to help you become familiar with the new grid and use it effectively to enhance your workflow.

    Keyboard shortcuts

    Using keyboard shortcuts is a powerful way to boost efficiency when working with the grid. Below are general instructions for using the grid, while Figures 9–11 list available shortcuts along with brief descriptions.

    • To change the value in a cell you can start typing when it is highlighted, or double click/press ENTER to go into edit-mode of that cell

    • When in edit mode of a cell with select menu, SPACE opens the menu showing all options, and you can select options with ENTER.

    • ESC exits edit-mode of a cell and discards the changes made.

    Create Cargo

    Steps:

    1. Open the Cargoes module from the menu on the left.

    2. In the top right corner, click Create .

    3. Select Create New Cargo.

    4. In the modal, you can fill in the required fields and add any additional information about the new cargo.

    5. Click Create.

    Required fields:

    • Load Port

    • Discharge Port

    • Counterpart

    • Commodity

    New design:

    The new Create Cargo modal has a new design to increase the productivity while creating a cargo, is more user-friendly and has more useful features altogether. Click on the picture below to get a better view of the details:

    New Create Cargo Port modal:

    Similar to the design above, we now have a new Create Cargo Port modal:

    This modal has the same features as the Create Cargo modal, listed below. To create a new cargo port on a cargo, there is now a simple icon at the top of the Cargo Port Timeline section of the . However unlike the Create Cargo modal, Reason for Call is set to 'Loading' by default and is limited to only 'Loading' and 'Discharging' for cargo ports.To change the order of ports, you can use the drag and drop features inside the modal. To edit or delete an existing cargo port you can, in the Cargo Port Timeline section, look for the grey icons on each of the cargo port rows, to specifically focus on a cargo port of choice to make the changes. Read more about the features below.

    Features:

    • With the new multiple value component in the Create Cargo modal, you are now able to add multiple Load- and Discharge- cargo ports to the new cargo.

    • The fields are divided into 2 sections, while the 3rd section displays the Timeline component of the cargo ports that are added. In the Create Cargo Port modal, there are 2 sections, in which the 2nd one contains the Timeline.

    • It is possible to drag and drop the ports in the Timeline component to change the order of the cargo port rows, in both of the modals.

    Speed & Consumption

    1. Open the Vessels module in the core menu in the top left corner.

    2. Find your selected vessel.

    Access "Speed and Consumption" data in the top tab menu. This page provides tools for precise vessel consumption configuration:

    • Indicate the consumption of Boilers and Generator for Main and Auxiliary engines.

    • Overwrite the default consumption for a bunker category during Ballast or Laden passages.

    • Identify default Ballast and Laden speed and consumption.

    • Specify bunker categories used by the vessel.


    Example of vessel configuration:

    Ballast and Laden Passages:

    The top two cards identify Ballast and Laden speeds along with their corresponding fuel consumption for the selected vessel. These cards also allow specifying different consumption for any bunker category. This configuration will be used as default for all vessel's voyages, but may be adjusted for each voyage in the voyage module. A new passage configuration can be added by clicking the + icon. The added options will also be available in the voyage module for all vessel voyages. For example, the vessel in the screenshot from figure 1 has the following configuration:

    • Ballast

      • 8 MT/day @ 12 knots for any bunker category during, but the consumption for the bunker category LS MGO is 6 MT/day @ the same speed (selected). The figure 2 illustrates how the Ballast Passage speed and consumption is configured in the create modal.

    • Laden

    Boilers Per Day and Generators Per Day

    These sections specify the default parameters for extra consumption in port or at sea passages by FO and MGO. The defined consumption will be used for voyages created with this vessel but can be overridden for each voyage in the .

    Bunker Categories

    You can customize the default categories used by the vessel and determine the order in which the categories are utilized. Important Notice: Changes to vessel bunker categories will affect all vessel voyages. This means that unless the selected vessel categories align with the current voyage consumption data, consumption categories and emission calculations will change. Modify vessel bunker categories carefully, and keep in mind the linked voyages that will be subject to update.

    For example, for an Open Loop Vessel it is allowed to use FO, FO LS, and LS MGO in North America. If the vessel has no specific configuration, Dataloy will prioritize FO as the first pick. However, this can be changed by specifying Vessel Bunker Categories, assigning LS MGO priority 1 and FO priority 2*. In this case, Dataloy VMS will compare the allowed categories in an area and select the highest priority matching vessel bunker category – in this scenario, LS MGO. In the event that the vessel is configured without a bunker category allowed in a specific area, the first priority bunker for that area will be used

    The bunker category priorities can be changed via the 're-sequence' function, which is located in the top-right of the Bunker Categories section.

    Air Emissions

    Allows specifying Carbon Dioxide, Nitrogen Oxide, Particulate Matter, Sulfur Oxide, and Carbon Monoxide emission factors for bunker categories. The determined factors will be used during emission calculations for all vessel's voyages.

    Maintain Voyages

    The details of a voyage can be edited in the Voyages module.

    When you have located the voyage, click it and the details will show in a drawer or panel on the right hand side. Field values can be edited directly.

    Change of vessel and ballast port

    Vessel and ballast port can only be changed when the voyage status is "estimate" or "unallocated".

    Edit estimates permissions

    With the preference 'Share voyage' you can indicate if estimate voyages can be edited by anyone or only by the creator and administrators

    • If 'Share voyage' is set to true, estimate voyages and template voyages is editable by all users

    Tiles

    Tiles show the key values like TCE, Days Total, Distance Total, Bunker Consumption, EEOI, Days In Port, of the voyage.

    Conditional information:

    • TCE Excluding Offhire (only shown when there is at least one offhire day)

    • Offhire days (only shown when there is at least one offhire day)

    FAQ: Why is Excl. Offhire higher than TCE?

    TCE is calculated as: Contribution divided by Total Days of the Voyage TCE Excl. Offhire is: Contribution divided by (Total Days of the Voyage - Total Days Offhire)

    'TCE Excluding Offhire' will display the TC Equivalent using the remaining total days after excluding/subtracting the days offhire. As a result of dividing by a smaller number, it will always be a higher number than regular TCE.

    Sections

    Sections are used to show the most important information about a sub-item of the voyage. Some sections have an Openbutton to open the section's item in a new drawer.

    Voyages on a time charter will have a "TC contract" section, while all other voyages will have a "Performance Cargo" section instead.

    Create Cargo From Existing Cargo

    To efficiently create a cargo, you can create a cargo based on an existing cargo.

    Steps:

    1. Open the Cargoes module from the menu on the left.

    2. In the top right corner, click Create .

    3. Select Create New Cargo From Existing Cargo.

    4. In the modal, select a cargo to create the new cargo

    5. Click Create.

    The modal:

    The modal can also be found in:

    • Voyage drawer, cargoes tab

    • Voyage drawer, cargoes list

    Voyage Edit Schedule

    Voyage drawer

    The Voyage Edit Schedule segment may be found on the right-hand side of the Overview tab in a Voyage Drawer.

    (Fig. 1) The Edit Schedule Tab is at the top right of a Voyage Drawer

    The edit schedule tab includes a complete list of Port Calls for all the Voyage's cargo.

    There are three core elements involved: Selected Port Calls, Selected Cargo, and the rest.

    • Selected Port Calls: these objects are highlighted by the blue background and a small blue line on the left of the Port Call port (see figure 2). The selected port calls display data for the respective selected Cargo.

    • Selected Cargo: the currently selected cargo can be chosen inside the select cargo modal, which can be invoked by clicking the expand cargo button (triangle facing down inside the left section, see figure 3). The selected cargo will be the subject of the Edit Schedule list. The Port Calls contained in the list correspond to the selected cargo, and the related values change dynamically if another cargo is chosen.

    • The rest: the rest can be considered all the grey options inside the list. These options are also expandable and can be edited, but they don't belong to the selected cargo and, thus, are not the focused elements (e.g., Kristiansand Port call in Figure 2).

    Each list item is interactive and can be collapsed or expanded. When the selected cargo is changed, the corresponding cargo ports expand and get visually highlighted, the corresponding values are updated.

    Moreover, the collapse button can expand Port Calls related to the selected Cargo, Expand all Port Calls, or Collapse all. The button may be found on the right over the first PortCall (see figure 3).

    Next to the Port Call port name, there is a Reason For Call specified inside of parentheses - L means Loading, D - discharging, and C - canal passage.

    If a port call using Handling Cost from Service Orders, then the bottom row will not be editable as shown on figure 5.

    Cargo

    This tab shows a list of the cargoes and fixtures on the voyage.

    Cargoes

    The Cargoes list shows a list of all cargoes on the voyage. The list can be filtered on Port (the list displays the first Load- and Discharge Cargo Port, but the filter works any Load- and Discharge ports on the Cargo), Charterer and Commodity by using the quick-filters in the top right.

    On the row at the bottom of the list, you can see the Total Amount of cargo quantity on this Voyage:

    Clicking the -icon will bring up a dropdown menu for choosing between creating a brand new Cargo, or a new Cargo from a CoA template.

    Invoices

    In the "Invoices" tab in the voyage drawer, you can efficiently see and manage the Pending Receivable/Payable document lines, as well as the Invoices connected to the voyage. The tab is only visible to voyages that do not have status "Estimate".

    In the top right, you will find two buttons for printing the Owner and Charterer Statement. Below them, in the middle of the drawer, you will find a two or three-way toggle-button that allows you to switch between the receivable, payable and hire payable invoices (only if the vessel is on a TC In). Switching between these options will change both which pending document lines are displayed and the assembled invoices.

    Pending section

    This section show you a list of all document lines that have not yet been assembled. Clicking on any of them allows you to edit some of the fields. Selecting one or more document lines will allow you to assemble them into a Document.

    Modal & List Features

    Click on each tab below to read more about the different features:

    Fixtures List

    You can see the Total Amount of all number fields, such as Cargo Quantity, Freight Rate and Freight Amount Currency, at the bottom of each table.

    See the expanded/collapsed features below.

    Create Fixture Modal

    By clicking at the Create icon, you will be able to create a fixture containing cargoes of the same Counterpart.

    The Cargoes list at the bottom is empty by default until you have chosen a Counterpart.

    Selecting a Counterpart will show all cargoes connected to the Counterpart, allowing you to select the ones you want within the fixture.

    The selector is also limited to the existing Counterparts on the voyage cargoes.

    You are not able to create until you have selected a Counterpart and at least one cargo from the list at the bottom.

    Note that these features act a bit different than on the Edit Fixture Modal!

    Clicking the Edit icon will open up the Edit Fixture modal, where you can change fields and select more or de-select cargoes.

    The cargoes list at the bottom has pre-selected cargoes of the Counterpart you want to edit, by default. All cargoes connected to the Counterpart selected will show up in the list, along with the pre-selected ones. This gives you the opportunity to either add more cargoes to, or remove from, the selected fixture.

    Another feature is that you can override the Counterpart. Then this change will reflect on all the selected cargoes. The Counterpart selector is not limited this time around.

    You will also be able to edit the Fixture Reference in this modal, which is a running number by default.

    Fields on the Fixtures

    One fixture is equivalent to the blue area that wraps around the cargoes within it, and containing fields in the section header. Here is a list of them:

    • Counterpart

    • Fixture Reference

    • Fixture Date

    • Fixture Form

    • Total Quantity

      • sum of the cargoes' weight on a fixture

    • Total Freight Voyage Currency

      • sum of the cargoes' freight, plus the fixture lumpsum, on a fixture

      • the currency is for now always shown in Voyage Currency

    Extra Features

    The fixtures list has a separate button to collapse/expand the cargo list of all the fixtures with one click as shown below:

    Expanded View

    Invoices section

    The invoice-section shows a list of all assembled invoices, or their line items. When in the toggle-button is set to Receivable or Payable, only the invoices connected to the voyage are shown. However, when set to Hire Payable, all invoices associated with the TC In contract are displayed, and an additional column for Voyage Reference is added that indicates the voyage(s) billed within each invoice.

    Clicking on an invoice will open a Document drawer, showing more details and allowing you to print them.

    In the top left corner of the section, you will find a "View Line Items" button. Clicking it will change between displaying the assembled documents and their data, and displaying each individual document line. This may be useful if you are looking for a specific item, but don't know in which document it was assembled. The line items list has filters specific to this mode. Clicking one of the document lines will open the Document it belongs to in a new drawer.

    Use the filters to quickly narrow down your selection. Depending on whether you are in Receivable, Payable or Pending Payable mode, as well as Document or Line Items view, the available filters change.

    Create Cargo by Importing from Excel

    Import Button

    From this version, you can now can create cargo(es) by uploading/import straight from an Excel worksheet. In the Unallocated cargoes list, you can click on this import button:

    Unallocated cargoes list with the Import button

    Import Cargoes from Excel

    Then, you can follow these steps:

    1. Click on the Import button displayed above

    2. A modal (or "dialog box") will pop-up:

    All the fields are disabled until you upload/import a supported file (only .xlsx and .csv files). You can only import one file at a time, but one file can consist of many cargo rows!

    1. You can proceed by clicking the blue Upload File button.

    2. After choosing a supported file from you computer, you can view the filename to the right of the Upload File button, along with a "preview screen" below all the now-enabled fields:

    All the required fields (*) must be filled in this step. As you go along with choosing the different fields from the dropdown menus, the "preview screen" will mark with a light-blue highlight on the fields have been selected. Meaning, you could upload your own customized Excel sheet with various header- and cell values, but you can then in the modal pick-and-choose which fields you actually want on the cargo, when creating it.

    Tip: it might be a good idea to change/create Header values in your Excel sheet by matching them to what we display in the above modal. E.g. Counterpart, Commodity, Cargo Quantity, Load Port, etc.

    Remember that only the first row of your Excel sheet are the Header values! The rest are the cell values within their respective columns.

    1. After choosing the different values into the fields, and you are full-filling all the below, then you can go ahead and create the cargo by clicking Import

    2. You should now be able to see your newly created cargo at the top of the Unallocated cargoes list

    Validations before Creating

    We have two different types of validations in this modal. Either one, or both, of them will show up at the bottom of the modal, if encountering any inconsistencies while uploading:

    (1) One is yellow-colored, and shows inconsistent data types in the cells of your Excel sheet:

    This particular validation highlights the "Planned BL Date" column, and detects that two or more cells has inconsistent values within this column. E.g. one cell is read as a number value, while two cells are read as date values. In this case, the number-cell should be changed to a date value, so that the modal can read it properly as a date value. Make the change in your Excel sheet, and then re-upload the file.

    This validation can highlight multiple columns with inconsistencies in data types, and not just one at a time.

    (2) The other one is red-colored, and shows Reference or Master Data inconsistencies, i.e. data errors in your Excel sheet:

    This particular validation highlights the "Commodity" column, and detects that "Row 2" within this column has a commodity named "Bananas" that does not exist in the system. In this case, you have two options:

    a) replace "Bananas" with an existing Commodity in your Master Data, in your Excel sheet, and then re-upload the file

    b) create a new Commodity "Bananas" in your first, and then re-upload the file.

    This validation can highlight multiple columns and rows with inconsistencies in Master Data or references, and not just one column and/or row at a time.

    Requirements for Importing

    Before actually creating a cargo by importing from an Excel worksheet, these requirements must be full-filled:

    • A supported Excel file must be uploaded/imported (only .xlsx and .csv files)

    • All required fields (*) must be filled in with supported values

    • No data types inconsistencies

    • No Master Data inconsistencies

    Once all of these requirements are full-filled, the Import button will be enabled, i.e. blue-colored, and you can then go ahead and create the cargo!

    Relet Cargo

    A relet can be defined as the act of sub-chartering a cargo to other owners to transport. A relet always covers the entire voyage of a relet cargo.

    Relets are listed at the bottom of the cargo drawer under "Relets and Transhipments".

    Relet a Cargo

    1. Open the Cargoes module in the Core section.

    2. Click a cargo in the list to open it in a drawer.

    3. At the top right in the drawer, click More and select Relet to Another Owner.

    4. Fill in the "Owner" field and click Confirm.

    Reletting a cargo will create a copy holding most of the same data of the cargo to be relet in the system. This new cargo has cargo type and thus it is has a freight cost instead of a freight revenue.

    Delete a Relet

    1. that was relet.

    2. Find the relet listed under "Relets and Transhipments" in the cargo drawer and click to open it.

    3. At the top right in the drawer, click Moreand select Delete.

    Synchronisation

    Editing the cargo quantity, measurement unit, commodity or the planned BL Date of a relet cargo or its connected cargo will trigger an identical change on the other cargo to keep them synchronised on these fields.

    Maintain Cargoes

    To maintain the cargo click the cargo in the list. The selected cargo will be opened in a cargo drawer where you can edit fields, copy cargo, create a pdf from the booking and so forth. Click the cargo drawer page here to see more details.

    Voyage Bunkers

    This page gives an entail into the tab 'Bunkers' inside the Voyage module.

    The Bunker module is split into three parts: 1. Bunker Indices; 2. Bunker Stock Summary; 3. Bunker Stock Details.

    Yet, the Print EUA Statement button is always visible. This function generated a descriptive report of consumed per port, specifying the percentage used in calculations, and associated consumption per leg.

    1. Bunker Indices: this section helps to have a better overview of bunker indices even when the fuel types FO and LS MGO are not consumed by a vessel. By default, the section is collapsed, providing information regarding the bunker indices. Once expanded, the indices can be altered. Refer to Figure 1 for example:

    The Bunker Stock Summary contains cards associated with the respective consumed fuel type. The core idea is to provide a brief overview of consumed bunkers and derived costs (Ref. Figure 2).

    (Fig. 2) Appearance of the Bunkers module (Summary).
    1. Bunker Details serves the same idea as Bunker Stocks Summary but provides more detailed and specific information. The table items can be filtered to show only the Consumption or Bunkering rows (ⓘ interact with the filter options in the top right of each table card).

    KPIs

    KPI Tiles in Cargo Main Details tab

    At the top in the main details you will find the KPI-cards.

    • First tile: Cargo quantity is the actual quantity, and booked is the booked quantity.

    • Second tile: Gross freight is the total freight for the cargo.

    • Third tile: Commission and various costs.

    • Fourth tile: Net Fio is all cargo related revenue aggregated and then deduct all aggregated cargo cost - divided by the quantity of the cargo.

    Main Cargo Details

    Below the KPI tiles is the Main Cargo Details section on the left side:

    Stowage

    Below Main Cargo Details section, there is a section for inputting fields and checkboxes regarding the stowage values of the cargo:

    If the optional preference SF_INTAKE_CALCULATION is enabled on your company's system, stowage factor will change from being System Volume Unit / System Weight Unit, to Cubic Feet / System Weight Unit

    Cargo Port Timeline

    Below the KPI-cards on the right side is the Cargo Port Timeline together with LayCan dates. Laytime used is the estimated laytime allowed. The date fields are validated and if the validation fails the date field that needs to be corrected is highlighted in red and there is a short message under the date field indicating what is wrong.

    To add a cargo port, click on the -icon in the top right corner. To edit a cargo port or delete a cargo port hover one of the cargo ports in the timeline and the below view will appear:

    Editing a Cargo Port will give you access to a few more fields, for instance Handling Cost, Laytime Terms and related fields.

    If the Vessel Type of the Vessel used for the Voyage has "Free Despatch" ticked off, any newly created Cargo Ports will have "Free Despatch" ticked off as well.

    If the Port Call for this Cargo Port has 'Use Handling Cost from Service Order' checked off, the handling cost related fields will be disabled.

    Bunker Adjustments

    On the right side, below the Cargo Port Timeline section, you can create/edit and view a list of Bunker Adjustments on the cargo:

    You can create a new Bunker Adjustment by clicking the -icon at the top right of the section, which will bring you to the Create-modal. Or you can click on one of the rows to edit the selected Bunker Adjustment, which will open the Edit-modal. If you choose the Adjustment Type to be set to "Freight", you will only see the Adjustment Factor field below. But if you have chosen "Consumption", you will only see the Agreed Consumption field below (the invisible field is not editable and does not affect the calculation). The Freight type is chosen by default.

    For both of these options you will be able to choose the bunker types: DL (LS MGO), DO (MGO), FL (LS FO) or FO. You can also input/edit the other fields, such as: Min Price, Max Price, Adjustment Factor/Agreed Consumption and Price. The Price field is still editable even though the input of the Min-/Max Price fields calculates the average price.

    The total adjustment is calculated if the price is outside the minimum/maximum range, i.e:

    • Min range: 500, Max range: 550, Price: 600 => Positive adjustment

    • Min range: 500, Max range: 550, Price 400 => Negative adjustment

    This calculation you can see as the price value in the second KPI tile by the last field called Bunker Adjustment:
