Workspaces across VIP resize more responsively, and large lists guide you to apply appropriate filters to minimize load time. Voyage, Port, Security, Master Contract, and other list functions have been carried over from IMOS, making the transition to the web more seamless for clients that previously used IMOS.

Create and Run Reports with Different Output Types
In the Reports workspace, enhancements have been made to the Report Designer, a tool that enables you to design reports based on data tracked throughout VIP. For example, you can now create and run reports with any of the following Output Types: CSV, PDF, Word, XML, Excel, and (with a separate license) Reporting DB. For clients that previously used IMOS, all IMOS Report Designer report types can be viewed on VIP.

Configure Task & Alert Rule Joins, Task Attachments, and Rule Set Categories
On the Task & Alert Rule form, joins are easier to find, preceded by > (for example, > Vessel…). Rules that include joins can be configured to evaluate to true when Any, All, or No joined fields meet the specified conditions. You can also choose to Run this rule once per a joined field; for example, you can generate Tasks and Alerts for each Bunker Lifting, instead of for the Voyage.

When designing a custom form, several new options are available. For example, you can configure a form table to make Row Details (additional fields that relate to each table row) Visible When a field in the parent row has a certain value. You can also Maintain Hidden Field Positions, so that the layout does not shift when certain fields do not appear. Voyage Instructions can be set to Require Approval and, when configuration flag Enable VI Default Email Addresses is enabled, you can set default To and CC recipients when sending Voyage Instructions.

Integrate with SIS3 Vessel Data
Requires an SIS3 license
You can import SIS3 vessel details into the Vessel form or Estimate. To set this up using configuration flags, see Vessel Data Integration.
