Various Rule: "Fixed Quantity"

Starting with release 8.6, a new rule named "Fixed Quantity" is now available for various cost/revenue items. When selected, a new "Quantity" field appears, allowing you to enter any positive quantity.

The amount is calculated using:

$$Amount = Quantity \times Rate$$

If you need to record a negative amount, simply use a negative rate.

For example:

$$Quantity = 500.0\\Rate=-2.5\\Total\space Amount =-1250.0$$

Updates to the Various Cost/Revenue Tab and Full-Screen Drawer

An additional Quantity column has been introduced to both the Various Cost/Revenue tab and the full-screen Voyage Drawer. See the figures below.

Important Notes About the "Quantity" field:

• When “Fixed Quantity” is selected: The quantity is based on what you enter, and is used to calculate the various amount.

• When any other rule is selected: The quantity is determined by the chosen rule, and the value is not used for the calculation of the amount.

Renamed Rules: "Percentage" & "Rate Based"

• "Percentage" is now called "Percentage on Freight".

• "Rate Based" is now called "Cargo Quantity Based".
