When a version of IMOS is released, the build contains all the ports that are currently identified. Over time, new ports are added, and older ports are updated. A monthly file of updated ports and distances is added to the Client Center. The file must be downloaded and added to IMOS, and the scripts must be run, each month. Complete instructions are with the file.
Adding a Port
If you need a port added, contact Veson to have it added. In the meantime, you can add it, but it will not have distances associated with it; the miles to and from it in an itinerary will be blank.
- To update the miles, delete the port you added and re-enter the standard port after it is added to the Distances tables.
- When you enter a port name:
- If the name is new, you are asked if you want to use the name for a new port.
- If the port already exists, its record appears. A new port with the same name as an existing port cannot be added.
