Change Paid By or For Account to TCI Owner or TCO Charterer on Bunker Liftings 
Requires configuration flag CFGEnableNonOperatorBunkerPurchases

​​​​Previously, when toggling Paid By and For Account fields on a record linked to a Bunker Purchase, the system defaulted to Operator for each Bunker Lifting record. Now, you can change Paid By or For Account to either TCI Owner or TCO Charterer and the record will stay linked with the Bunker Purchase, when configuration flag CFGEnableNonOperatorBunkerPurchases is enabled. Bunker Invoices paid by TCI Owner/TCO Charterer cannot be invoiced.

Account for TCTO Voyage Ballast Legs in Time of Delivery (ROB) Calculations
This is an additional solution and requires a separate license. You must have the General Trading Module Right selected. Access to other forms and actions also requires specific Module Rights. Your configuration might differ from the information shown.

To help you get the most accurate bunker exposure information, you can apply the “Include TC ROB Bunker Exposure” profile flag in the Trading Profile to have the TC in ROB calculation account for TCTO voyage ballast legs until TC out has been delivered.

This feature requires updating imosmsg to the latest version and updating standard Veslink forms with the Update Forms button (in Veslink Classic > Forms & Vessels > Forms).

The tag APRAdvancePayment has been added to the xml for "Veson Offline Port Disbursement". You can now submit Advance Payments when the status is "APR" by adding a value to APRAdvancePayment, which translates to "APR Advance Payment" in the form.

When enabled, an index-linked Time Charter contract that is scheduled with a fixed-rate short contract will remain in exposure and the exposure will be based on the Market Value Rate defined on the voyage for that contract instead of the contract rate.

View Berth Information for Specific Port Calls 
Port call berth information has been added to the v1/agent/portcalls/{companyCode}/details Veslink API endpoint, allowing you to view berth information for specific port calls.

By Counterparty: 
Select the counterparty to make the Estimated Demurrage calculation per charterer rather than per voyage. With no charterer entered, the calculation represents all charterers of the voyage without a charterer-specific Estimate. CFGAllowEstLaytime must also be enabled.
By Port: Estimated Demurrage records can be linked to specific port calls within a voyage. Only ports where the selected counterparty’s cargo is handled will be available for selection. When an Estimated Demurrage record is linked to a port call, its description in the Voyage P&L will note as much, and it will be superseded as appropriate by actual demurrage entered via Laytime Calculations.

February 2021: New in IMOS v7.11.18372

New Controller Filter Added to TC Schedules

The Ballast days and bunkers will be automatically captured at the contract level from the Benchmark Estimate.

New Check Box Added to TC Contract and Trade Routes Form to Define Calculated Route as a Split Route 
Requires the Trading module
A new check box has been added to the Trade Routes form to define a calculated route as a "split" route. When a route with the check box selected is used to define the exposure details on a TC contract then the TC exposure will be split across the routes that are defined in the formula for the calculated route. This split will be both for the Exposure Days and the Exposure amount.

Additionally, the check box has been added to the Exposure details on the cargo form so you can de-select this on trades that you do not want to split.

You can now change P (Passing), C (Commencing), and T (Terminating) port functions to F (Fueling) on the Bunker Planning form for non-cargo handling port functions.

New Fields Added to TC Out Contract Exposure Tab to Account for Ballast Days
CFGTCOutBallastExposureCaptuthremust be enabled
When enabled, several new fields are added to the TC Out contract's Exposure tab to record the Net Daily TCE, Benchmark Estimate, Ballast Bunker Exposure, and Ballast Days. When populated, these fields will update the TC Out contract exposure to account for the Ballast Days required to get to the delivery port. The new value will become the Net Daily TCE and the Ballast Bunker Exposure will be displayed either in addition to the delivery exposure or separately if the ballast period is different. 

Support Added for Multiple Lumpsums per Booking in Freight Calculations
A new “On Booking” column has been added to the Extra Freight Terms form in the Data Center. When enabled, it allows a Lumpsum type code to apply to a booking instead of individual cargoes, so new lumpsum on booking terms can be configured and applied together, both in extra freight terms and in Advanced Pricing on COAs. Previously, only the LB code could be applied as a lumpsum on booking.

Estimate Received Fuel and Price Fields Added to the Report Designer
Requires IMOS database schema 30.6 or higher
The “Price” and “Received Qty” fields from the Bunker Planning form have been added to the Report Designer under the Estimate Itinerary > Estimate Itinerary Bunkers table.

...

September 30, 2020: New in IMOS v7.11.16275

Set Start of Ballast Leg as the Exposure Basis Date for Cargo Contracts
Requires the Trading & Risk module
A new check box called "Use Est. Ballast Days For Exposure Start Calc" has been added to the Trading Profile. When selected, the Trading P&L Summary and Details List will take into account the estimated Ballast Days required to move a cargo, and will calculate an updated start of exposure based on the start of laycan less these days. 

Additionally, the Trading Profile "Select Basis to Calc Ballast From Other than Min" check box can be used to select the laycan window's mid or max to deduct the Ballast Days from to calculate the start of exposure. If "Select Basis to Calc Ballast From Other than Min" is not selected, Ballast Days will always be deducted from the start of the laycan window. 

Show Miles in ECA Zone
On the Voyage Manager and Voyage Estimate itineraries, an "ECA Miles" column has been added to the Port/Date tab to view the ECA distances between port calls. In addition, an “ECA Distance” column has been added to the Route Selection modal. 

New Trading Profile Form Tabs
Requires the Trading & Risk module

You can now update the Bunker Itinerary information on Voyage Itineraries for upcoming ports, allowing you to plan and manage your voyages more effectively by updating arrival/departure ROBs. Once edited, the field will be colored blue to indicate a manual override. Actualized ROBs and commencing ports are not editable. 

Ignore Duration Basis from the TC Contract & Always Account for Min
Requires the Trading & Risk module
A new check box called “Use Min Duration On TC Contracts” has been added to the Trading Profile. When selected, the duration basis on the TC contracts displayed in the Trading P&L Summary and Details Lists will be ignored and, instead, the contract will be evaluated against its min duration. The min/max period defined on the contract will then always be assessed as an optional period. 

Link Trades on a Quantity Basis Instead of Just a Period Basis
Configuration flag CFGLinkPaperTradeQty must be enabled
With appropriate configuration, paper trades can be linked to physical trades on a quantity basis within a period, providing a more granular level of linking and allowing for one paper trade to be linked across multiple physical contracts within the same period.

Added ECA Zone in South Korea
New ECA zone was added for the South Korean ports: Busan, Incheon, Yeosu/Gwangyang, and Ulsan.

July 31, 2020: New in IMOS v7.11.15015

Select “Min Excl Option” Duration Basis on TC Contracts

Help Save the Planet – Emissions Calculator
Feature Board suggestion
On Voyage Estimate and Voyage Itineraries, a new “CO2” column enables you to capture CO₂ emitted per leg. When evaluating voyage options, you can minimize the EEOI impact of a voyage by choosing the lowest estimated CO₂ emissions.

Trading Profile Option: Display ROB Exposure Based on Future Scheduling
Requires the Trading module
On the Trading Profile form, the logic behind the “Display ROB Exposure Based on Future Scheduling" option has been updated to better handle TCTO voyages, specifically the delivery exposure and capturing the net between that and the leading TCOV ROBs.

Optimize Ballast and Laden Speeds for Maximum TCE
On the Voyage Estimate details menu, click “Apply Max TCE Speed” to pull in ballast and laden speeds from the vessel's defined speeds that will result in a maximum TCE result. These speeds will update in the voyage itinerary.
