# Create bunker order from scratch

To navigate towards the Bunker Orders module, expand the "Operations" menu and "Bunker Orders" will be located there.&#x20;

A create button is available on the top right corner.&#x20;

Once a vessel is selected, the Port Call field will be enabled. You will be able to select port calls from the vessel's frozen, open voyages. Additionally, you can search by port names or voyage reference number.

The system uses the ["Default bunker orders status" setting](/release-8.31/voyage-management-system/step-by-step-guides/setup/system-settings/general.md) to assign its initial status.

# Agent Instructions

## 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 following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.dataloy.com/release-8.31/voyage-management-system/step-by-step-guides/operations/bunker-orders/create-bunker-orders/create-from-scratch.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `build a script that syncs our docs to a CMS` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

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.
