The Dataloy Vessel Report System is a web page intended for creating vessel reports from vessels without internet connection. The only vessel computer requirements are e-mail access, an e-mail client and a web browser. The web page is distributed to vessels and stored locally on the respective vessels communication computers. When a report is submitted a pre-filled in e-mail will open in the default e-mail client and when an e-mail is sent from a vessel it will be picked up by Dataloy VMS where the schedule, bunker figures will automatically be updated and a report inserted.
In cases where the email client or browser has limitations in the mailto URL, i.e. for some combinations of web browser and email client the number of character to transfer from browser to email client is so small that it does not work for VRS. The report will instead be copied and stored in the computer clipboard and the user will have to paste the report into an e-mail message. This set-up is done per customer, so it is either on or off for all clients of one customer.

For VRS clients having Voyage reference and reason for call it is important to use the same voyage reference number that is in Dataloy VMS. The reference number is a unique combination of values which varies from customer to customer.
Three straits will appear in the Dataloy VMS schedule and vessels should therefore include them in the report: Torres, Bosporus and Maggelan. These will appear because expenses may arise.
