CFGUseVoyageEmissionsFuelTypes should be set to Y in most cases. When setting this flag to N, upon approving an SCC form, the system checks that the fuel types used on the SCC form match those on the voyage the form is trying to update. This is unlikely to succeed, as various fuel type names are often used. Setting this to Y allows the form to update the voyage regardless of whether the fuel types match.

Remember that you can always ignore the fuel consumption and distance validation. We hope that it helps get the data entered correctly, but it does not prevent you from submitting or approving a form.

The form’s title is editable, but the system does not save the change.

If you include a comment longer than a few words in the form before using the Copy Form Link functionality, it likely will not be able to be included in the form link. A message informs you, and you can copy/paste that comment into whatever communication you’re using to send the form link.

Standard SCC fuel types and CO2 factors are used. CO2 factors can be edited.

Some standard SCC fuel types are not yet available for use in this form but will be in the future: VLSFOHighVisc, VLSFOLowVisc, Methanol, Ethanol, and Ammonia.

Once an emissions message is approved, it immediately disappears from the current Inbox view as it is filtered by status. Approving the form moves it from status Pending to Approved. If you need to find that form again, switch the Inbox status filter to Approved.

There are some errors you can ignore and some you cannot. It’s tough to tell the difference until you click Send (carrier) or Approve (charterer). Validation of values within ranges can be ignored, but required fields cannot be ignored.

When approving an emissions message, any data previously shown in Voyage Manager > Sustainability > Emissions Data is wiped out and replaced with this new data.

Remember that in-port fuel consumption does not currently have any validation against the values entered; only at-sea consumption is checked.
