Tabs

The Laytime Calculations module is divided into five tabs, Port Calls, Charter Parties (XXX), Port Call Events (XXX), Event Matrix (XXX) and Charter Parties (All Trans/Pretrans and Relets). The first four only differ in their top field, the other three are identical, with date being able to be entered at any time in any of these tabs. The Charter Parties (All Trans/Pretrans and Relets), however, only handles the calculations of all transshipments, preshipments and relets.
Note
:
(XXX) = displays the port selected in the Port Call field (Port Calls tab) within parenthesis.

Laytime calculations can be performed for both single and multiple charter parties and cargoes. This would depend on the type of charter party.
