Synchronizing Events and Deductions

Describes how you can synchronize events and deductions for Relet & Spot cargo pair in laytime calculations

It is now possible to synchronize events and deductions (not to counts) between a relet, internal, and the corresponding spot cargo.

This reduces the manual effort needed when reletting a cargo since you no longer have to copy the events and deductions manually.

Functionality Availability Criteria:

  • Minimum of two Laytime Calculations required.

  • Cargo ports must belong to the same port call but be associated with different cargoes.

  • Cargo types should differ, categorized as SPOT, Relet, or Internal.

How It Works

When synchronizing the relet, internal, or spot cargo, all laytime events, as well as the "not to count" events, will be copied from the corresponding cargo.

For example, if you click 🔄 'Synchronize Events & Deductions' on a SPOT (ref. figure 2), all events from the Relet cargo (ref. figure 1) will be copied to the SPOT (ref. figure 3).

Synchronizing Events and Deductions

To synchronize a relet with its corresponding spot cargo, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Related tab in the Voyage Drawer.

  2. Expand the Laytime Calculations to access the Cargo Port Panel List.

  3. In the Cargo Port Panel List, a Synchronize Events and Deductions button will be available for all relet, internal and corresponding spot cargo ports.

To make it easier to identify which cargoes are relet and connected to a spot cargo, a chip has been added to the section header. See the figures below.

To prevent accidental overwrites, a confirmation modal will appear with a brief explanation. You must confirm your choice before synchronization. See Figure 7.

If there is only one cargo port to synchronize from, it will be preselected. If multiple cargo ports are available, a dropdown menu will appear, allowing you to choose which cargo to copy from.

Deletion of Cargo

Deleting either the relet or its connected spot cargo does not affect the other. Synchronization only occurs when you manually click the button and confirm the action.
