Load Options and Discharge Options grids: Each potential load and discharge port and the terms that apply to the port.
When you add a Port to an Options grid, the Berth defaults to Quay.
When you select a Port and Berth combination in the Itinerary that matches a Load or Discharge Option line, that information automatically populates. You can change the ports and/or terms on the
VIP - Cargo form; manually overwritten values appear as blue text.
To open the Port form, for example to update berth details, right-click a Port or Port/Area row and then click Port.

Pricing GridTo adjust pricing, do any of the following: Add one row for each possible combination of Load Port(s), Discharge Port(s), and Cargo. Multiple load and discharge ports can be manually entered per row; the order of the ports is relevant to picking the correct row. To use Advanced Pricing to create configurable rules for pricing contracts, select the Advanced check box. To enable Top-off, select a type of top-off: Regular: Cargo loaded at multiple ports with varied rates, offloaded at one discharge port Reverse: Cargo loaded at one port, discharged at multiple ports
Note: The Veson IMOS Platform does not support Top-off or Reverse Top-off in connection with Interservice Cargoes. To enter a VAT No. and VAT % specific to a row, right-click the row and then click VAT; otherwise, the default entered above is used. In the Freight Type ( Frt Frt Type) column, select Flat Rate, Lumpsum, Daily Rate, or one of the following: Index Table: Uses an Index Table to price your freight based on Index values. The index table is not an available option for the freight type if configuration flag CFGEnableGeneralUnpricedComponent is enabled. Scale Table: Uses a Scale (Rate) Table, defined in the Data Center; select the table in the Table column. Worldscale: Uses Worldscale; WSC% is in the Amount column; the WSC Flat rate is determined per Cargo, according to its itinerary.

Use Symmetrical BAF
CFGUseSymmetricalBAF | | | Implement Symmetrical Bunker Adjustment Factor (BAF) on a Cargo Price Matrix (with options determined by configuration flag CFGLockBunkerSurchargeOnFix). The Bunker Adjustment Factor can be allocated on a per cargo basis, and each freight adjustment can be based on a specific market, with an individual adjustment as required. Bunker exposure associated with a confirmed Cargo is derived from the Estimate Matrix tab and reflected in the Exposure report. On the Cargo COA, VC In COA, Cargo, and VC In forms, the Bunker Surcharge field is replaced with Bunker Market. Note: The setting of this config flag determines which result is available on the Pricing Rule form: N: Bunker Surcharge Y: BAF
| Lock Bunker Surcharge on Fix
CFGLockBunkerSurchargeOnFix | The Bunker Adjustment Factor can be used to adjust the Freight Rate based on the bunker price, rather than using a Bunker Market table on the Cargo form. On the Pricing tab, under Bunker Adjustment, select a Symbol and enter a Quantity, Price, and BAF. When the voyage is fixed, the price is frozen, based on the market curve, based on the Laycan From Date. The BAF is also used in exposure calculations before the voyage is fixed. Options for the Symmetrical Bunker Adjustment Factor (BAF) for the Price Matrix: N = A Cargo with BAF has Extra Freight Term ZR for the Bunker Adjustment when the Cargo is fixed, which varies with the bunker market rate. Y = A Cargo with BAF has Extra Freight Term BR, whose value is locked when the Cargo is fixed.
The Extra Freight Term for BAF is only created if a bunker surcharge exists at the time of fixing the cargo. | Enable COA Planning Period
