Cargo Fixture Cannot be Added to Scheduled Idle Voyage
Problem
No cargo fixture has been entered and cannot be entered (and therefore also no cargo details) to a scheduled, idle voyage.
Solution
The voyage has been scheduled without a fixture to allow operations to work with a vessel which is idle. To add a cargo/cargoes the voyage must be un-frozen whilst keeping all operational data, the cargo/es added and the re-frozen.
To do so:
- Go to Modules > Booking and Operations > Booking and Operations.
- The Booking and Operations window will open.
- Select applicable vessel - its details will display.
- Go to the Voyage menu and from the drop-down select Un-freeze.
The Un-freeze Voyage - Please Select an Option pop-up will open.
- Click Keep operational/actual data and click OK.
- The pop-up will close. The voyage is once again an estimate but with operational data.
- Open the Voyage Estimate module and then applicable voyage.
- In the Port Rotation field select the Insert > After in the toolbar and add applicable load and discharge port/s.
- In the Cargoes field click Add in the toolbar. A new empty cargo row will display and and in the Main calculation field (left-hand field) the cargo panel will also empty.
- Enter the cargo and cargo details.
- Go to the Voyage menu and from the drop-down select Freeze... to re-freeze the voyage.
