Question

Can deadfreight be included in a laytime calculation, thus enabling extra time allowed? If so, how?

Answer

Yes. Deadfreight can be added to allow for extra time in a laytime calculation by overriding the "Laytime Quantity". To do this, utilise the Laytime Quanity Option.

To add deadfreight to a laytime calculation:

  1. In the Laytime Calculations module open applicable voyage - its detalis will display
  2. Enter the total quantity (Qty & Deadfreight Qty) in the extra quantity column called Laytime Qty located next to the Quantity column in the Cargo Ports field.
    Note: The row fields under Laytime Qty remain blank until data is manually entered.

    Example:



  3. Click Recalculate.
  4. The entered quantity under Laytime Qty entered will override the data stated under Quantity for the applicable port and continue to apply until manually removed.
