# Change Voyage Status

From the Voyage drawer it is possible to change the status of the voyage by using the status chip next to the reference no at the top of the drawer.



## "Forward" Status Transitions:

### **From Estimate to Allocated**

When changing status from estimate to Allocate, **no** modal will show. The same also happens from Estimate to Unallocated. You can check out the different requirements and validations below.&#x20;



### **From Estimate or Allocated to Nominated**

When changing status from Estimate to Nominated, the following modal will show:

If it's a TC voyage with missing Laycan on the TC, **you will have to** fill in the Laycan as well. Otherwise, you will get information at the bottom of the modal saying which cargoes does not have Laycans added, but you will be able to nominate.&#x20;

As you can see, Company and Business Unit field is required. By default, what is selected on the voyage will display here, but you are free to change it. You can also add Responsible Charterer, Responsible Operator and Responsible Accountant, but these are not required.&#x20;

The same also happens when changing from Allocated to Nominated.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
The nominating process will also change the _booking status_ of all of the cargoes on the voyage to 'Clean Fix'.
{% endhint %}

You can check out the different requirements and validations below.&#x20;



### Other

There are also other "forward" status transitions, like:

* Nominated -> Operational
* Operational -> Operationally Closed
* Operationally Closed -> Invoiced
* Operationally Closed -> Closed
* Invoiced -> Closed

{% hint style="info" %}
Some customers sometimes prefers other names of the mentioned statuses.

E.g. "Operationally Closed" can be called "Sailed" or "Demurrage Checked".
{% endhint %}



## "Backward" Status Transitions:

### From Nominated to Allocated

When changing to these statuses, **no** modal will show.



### From Allocated to Unallocated

When changing status from Allocated to Unallocated, the following modal will show:

<figure><img src="https://content.gitbook.com/content/yYbNukLL3zJksOADeOR7/blobs/MvvmmQoIdJ2NqrqJvTIX/image.png" alt=""><figcaption><p>Unallocate Voyage Modal</p></figcaption></figure>

You will be given the option to select a new Vessel and/or Ballast Port to change to, but not required for unallocating.&#x20;

The same also happens when changing from Nominated to Estimate.&#x20;



### From Unallocated to Estimate

When changing to these statuses, **no** modal will show.



### Other

There are also other "backward" status transitions, like:

* Operational -> Nominated
* Operationally Closed -> Operational
* Invoiced -> Operationally Closed
* Closed -> Invoiced



## Different Requirements and Validations:

### **Missing Fields**

**Required Values Must Be Set:**

* For each cargo: charterer
* For each cargo: commodity

-> This can be seen for most "forward" status transitions.



### **Update the Vessel Code**

Vessel code must be changed from its default assigned value. Open Vessel "Internal Data" to set a new code.

-> This can be seen for most "forward" status transitions.



### Change of Ballast Port

**Warning**

The ballast port on this voyage does not match the open position of this vessel. Do you want to \<status> the voyage with the start date locked?

-> This can be seen for most "forward" status transitions.
