Outcharter Voyages

The Demurrage Time Bar Task logic considers an OVOV or TCOV voyage to be Outcharter if the counterparty on any voyage cargo is an external company.

A cargo counterparty is considered an internal company if the Internal Address check box (not the Internal check box) is selected on the counterparty's Address Book record. If the Internal Address check box is not activated by the configuration flag: CFGAddBookInternalAddressText in the Address Book, the voyages are never Outcharter and the below logic does not apply.

Info

The Voyage is not an Outcharter if the configuration flag: CFGUseCargoCounterpartyInTimeBarTask is enabled even if the internal address check box is not ticked.

Outcharter Voyage rules apply:

  • For voyages: OVOV, RELT, TCOV, or VCOV
    If the counterparty on any voyage cargo is external ("Internal Address" check box in the Address Book entry is NOT SET)

  • For voyages: SPOT or COAS
    - If the counterparty on any SALE cargo is external

Info

For SPOT or COAS, if there is any SALE cargo with the "CoL" checkbox in the Voyage cargo grid - the voyage is not an Outcharter.

The Outcharter information is available in the Demurrage Time Bar Task List under the Outcharter column.

Voyage Type: COAS
