As part of your subscription, we include market fixtures sourced from a third party vendor daily. Keep in mind that we don’t validate this data. Every fixture that you put in remains private, including those fixtures that you change information on. |
...
The column “Source” is the entry type : Public or Private.
...
The dash icon means the source is from private (yours)
The triangle means it is a public fixture.

Public fixtures cannot be deleted but can be edited. If a public fixture is edited, the edited row is saved as a private fixture. The data that was initially public is what the other firms will see. |
Shortcut keys of “F” (add a fixture) and “E” (export) work in the Cargo and Fixture view.
2. Parsing fixtures
You can cut/copy and paste fixtures from an outside source. Start by copying the fixture into this text box, as shown below and hit Enter:
...
Once you paste the fixture you will be brought to the Cargo and Fixture pop-up with many (if not all) of the fields filled in.
...
Once you save (from the disk symbol), if there are any adjustments made, you will see this pop-up.
...
If there is something that the system did not recognize, (like firm) it will I’d this.
Make any adjustments. This is not required but will help us better interpret fixtures in the future.
3. Sorting
There is an ability to sort and/or search the entire database, or fixtures that have met your search criteria.
Example: Sorting by ‘Date’, the database will sort by entry date. The case that is showing is oldest to newest; by toggling the white up arrow to down, it will change the result from newest to oldest.
