If Bill By is set to CP Qty, the freight will always be calculated basis the BL Qty.
If Bill By is set to Bill Qty, there are two potential calculations:
If an itinerary is not defined for the cargo, or if L/D Qty is blank in the itinerary for the cargo, freight will always be calculated basis the CP Qty.
If an itinerary is defined for the cargo, and L/D Qty is populated in the itinerary for the cargo, freight will always be calculated basis the BL Qty (L/D Qty).

Cargo Tab
The Cargo tab includes information about the cargo for each port.
...
Exp Details Tab
Configuration flag Enable Cargo Expense Details adds an Exp Details tab to the Itinerary grid.
...
For companies that typically manage voyages on a discharge-to-discharge basis, but for some contracts are able to charge a netback on the shipping cost, this tab shows cost allocation by leg. Because the netback is on a load-to-load basis, the leg cost allocation is used to accurately calculate the amounts to charge back to the trader.
Draft/Restrictions Tab
The port calls, as on the Cargo tab, with the Max Lift for each berth, based on the vessel, its Deadweight Table, and the API/Specific Gravity of the cargo, as well as the weight of bunkers and everything on the vessel.
...
If you have the list of Low Sulfur Community ports loaded into the Veslink database, the Estimate sets low sulfur port days (LS PDays) to be equal to port days (PDays) while in one of these ports (without considering Laytime Terms).
Low sulfur port days (LS PDays) and low sulfur sea days (LS SDays) will be calculated for ports and routes that fall within an ECA zone.
Charterer Tab
When configuration flag Enable Voyage Estimate Charterer Itinerary is enabled, a Charterer tab appears as the default tab on to the Itinerary grid.
...
This tab consolidates high-value information such as vessels vessel particulars, cargo and routing details, and bunker breakdown information.
Port/Date Tab
The Port/Date tab includes the parameters for each port call that has a function, with one line per cargo, like a cargo itinerary.
...
Custom Tab
When the configuration flag Enable Voyage Estimate Custom Itinerary Grid is enabled, a Custom tab appears as the default tab on the Itinerary grid.
...
On this tab, you can view extra sea days (XSD), fuel type arrival ROB, and fuel type departure ROB fields, along with the same columns available in the Charterer tab.
When the configuration flag CFGEnableEditableLaytimeFactor is enabled, Webhook support is added to update laytime termsFactor via the estimate mutation.
Port/Date Tab
The Port/Date Group tab is a collapsed view of the Port/ Date view tabincludes the parameters for each port call that has a function, with one line per portcargo, like a vessel cargo itinerary.

Displays the Rate Unit (RU) column in the main Itinerary grid in the Cargo tab of Estimates, for easy view/editing alongside the L/D Rate column values.
...
Changing the vessel on an estimate or fixture note will update any canal costs in the itinerary with the defaults as specified in the selected vessel's routing prefs. Any canals which occur between delivery and redelivery in a TCO Estimate will not be updated, and any canals which do not appear in the routing preferences of the selected vessel will likewise be unaltered.
...
SHEX factor will not be applied to turntime when estimating total days in a port.
...
- Selects the Use estimate cost in P&L check box by default for all newly created voyages.
- Estimated port expenses in the Voyage Manager will be Provisional by default.
...
An additional constant representing a default ending bunker quantity (Ending Bunker ROB Margin on the Vessel form) will be added into the Estimate maximum lift calculation in cases where the initial bunker quantities are not specified in the Estimate.
...
The Estimate/Voyage Fixture will not default the laytime terms at ports to SHINC - for L/D ports, having no terms will cause a validation error which will prevent the user from fixing the estimate with such errors and/or prevent the user from saving a fixture with such errors.
...
Enables the Cargo Volume field on the Port/Date Group tab. This field displays the change in cargo ROB for all cargo handling lines at both load and discharge ports.
...
Enables the Charterer field on the Cargo and Port/Date tabs. This field displays the charterer for the Cargo associated with that load or discharge line.

For voyages and estimates with Vessel Type L, enables you to select how LNG will be consumed for the purposes of estimating in-port bunker consumption for LNG carriers:
- In the Port/Date Group tab of the voyage itinerary, the Fuel Cons Mode column is renamed to Sea Mode.
- A new column, Port Mode, is added. This column represents the fuel consumption mode while in the port.
- Dual Fuel is not an available choice for Port Mode.
- The Port Mode drop-down menu includes an additional option, Per Table. This indicates that the pre-existing behavior for in-port fuel consumption is to be used, where all fuel types in the In Port Consumption table on the Vessel form are to be consumed in the quantities indicated in the table.
- Port Mode is defaulted and updated based on the value entered in Sea Mode, with these exceptions:
- If Sea Mode is Dual Fuel, Port Mode defaults to LNG Only.
- If a different value is entered in Port Mode, it will turn blue and no longer be updated by changes to the Sea Mode. To relink the fields, set Port Mode to Automatic.
...
When importing a Cargo contract, new ports for cargo loads will be added to the itinerary immediately after the last existing load port. Likewise, new ports for discharging will be added after the last existing discharge port. This behavior will not apply if M ports are present in the itinerary.
...
When enabled, Estimates can be created from an in-progress, ballast voyage. When fixing and scheduling, the in-progress Estimate will be merged back into the original voyage.
...
If enabled, when selecting a vessel on an Estimate, if that vessel's latest-dated scheduled or commenced voyage has no cargoes (and the Dry Dock check box on the voyage is not selected), the In Progress check box on the Estimate is automatically selected, and the voyage itinerary is copied to the Estimate. Also, the prohibition against editing in the Estimate any of the itinerary lines copied from the Voyage is relaxed to allow editing of itinerary lines with no operational data (arrival, etc.). Requires CFGEnableInProgressEstimating to be enabled in order to take effect.
...
When enabled, the "Charterer" tab is visible and the default tab on Estimate details. This tab shows itinerary information and bunker lifting quantities and prices.
...
The CP Terms grid in the Estimate, Voyage Fixture, and Voyage Manager will have an ID column that displays the Cargo ID for the cargo linked to the CP Terms.
...
The Estimate/Voyage Fixture will show the trade unit ID of the cargo associated with the given itinerary line.
...
On Estimates, sets the default cargo unit for the Quantity/Units field.
...
To globally configure the default Freight Type for Cargoes newly added to the Estimate, Voyage Fixture, and Voyage Manager. Enter the letter code for the default freight type: F = Freight Rate, L = Lumpsum, W= World Scale, D = Daily Rate, A = ATRS. Note that this configuration only affects Cargoes that are created via the Estimate, Voyage Fixture, and Voyage Manager. Cargoes that already exist and are imported into these forms are not affected, and records created directly from the Cargo form always use the default set in the flag.
...
Enables Unit of Measure Conversion for MT, BBL, and M3.
- Group defaults can be overridden at an individual grade level on the Cargo Name form or on the Estimate/Voyage Fixture/Voyage.
- With this option, several additional columns appear on forms:
- Cargo Groups: CP Unit, Lift Unit, Alt Lift Unit, and Convert
- CP Terms Details: Alt Qty and Alt Unit on the Itinerary tab of the grid
- Estimate, Voyage Fixture, and Voyage Itinerary grid: Alt Qty and Alt Unit on the Draft/Restrictions tab
If there are a value and a unit of measure for L/D Qty, a unit of measure for Alt Unit, and nonzero values for API/SG, then the Alt Qty value is automatically calculated. An L/D Qty can also be calculated from a manually entered Alt Qty: To trigger recalculation, enter the Alt Qty and then clear the L/D Qty value. This procedure can also be used to calculate the quantities based on a manually entered API/SG.
...
For vessels such as product tankers with the same kind of Cargo in several grades, enables Multigrade Cargoes: Changes the Cargo field to Cargo Group and adds a Cargo Grade column (for the Cargo Name within the Cargo Group) to the Itinerary/Options tab.
- Each Cargo Name must be tied to a Cargo Group.
- One Cargo Name must be created with the same name as the Cargo Group.
The Freight Invoice automatically adapts its format to display the Cargo Group, followed by the individual grades.
Note: The setting of this config flag determines which variable is available, and whether the No. of Grades variable is available, on the Pricing Rule form:
- N: Cargo Type; No. of Grades variable not available
- Y: Cargo Grade x; No. of Grades variable available
When the Cargo Grade variable is used in a Rule, its evaluation is done based on the order of Grades in the itinerary.
...
Enables the cargo units field to be editable on the Estimate and CP Terms Details forms.
...
Adds a Per Unit Cost field to the Estimate P&L. This value is also seen on the Voyage Profit & Loss Report (accessible from the Voyage Manager) where Per Unit Cost = total cost of expenses by quantity of cargo loaded.
...
Shows the Comm% field in the Estimate Cargo grid, which shows the total commission for the Cargo. If there is only one broker, the value can be updated manually in this field. If there are multiple brokers, their commission should be updated in CP Terms Details.
...
Displays a validation error if any of a voyage's or Estimate's linked contracts or Bunker Requirements has a different Company set than the voyage company.
...
When selecting a TC In Fixture to be used for a Voyage/Estimate, if no Company has been selected, the Company on the selected TC In Fixture will be used.
- If the Vessel is changed in an Estimate, the Company field will be the Company of TCI/Head Fixture or Vessel, based on the values of CFGDefaultCompanyOnTciSelect and CFGDefaultCompanyFromVessel.
- If the Vessel is not changed, but the TCI/Head Fixture is changed, the Company field will change accordingly, also respecting the value of CFGDefaultCompanyOnTciSelect.
...
When selecting a vessel on a contract, if no Company has been assigned on the contract, it will default to the Company specified on the vessel.
- If the Vessel is changed in an Estimate, the Company field will be the Company of TCI/Head Fixture or Vessel, based on the values of CFGDefaultCompanyOnTciSelect and CFGDefaultCompanyFromVessel.
- If the Vessel is not changed, but the TCI/Head Fixture is changed, the Company field will change accordingly, also respecting the value of CFGDefaultCompanyOnTciSelect.
...
If enabled, displays an LOB (Line of Business) field on the Address (Type W), Estimate, Voyage Fixture, Voyage, and contract forms.
...
When creating a new Estimate or Voyage Fixture, the current user will be assigned as the Chartering Specialist.
...
When importing a cargo, specifies whether or not the company specified on the imported cargo should be used to default the company on the Estimate, Voyage Fixture, and Voyage Manager if a company has not yet been specified.
...
When importing a cargo, specifies whether or not the LOB specified on the imported cargo should be used to default the LOB on an Estimate, Voyage Fixture, and Voyage if an LOB has not yet been specified.
...
When enabled, when a Time Charter In is selected, if an LOB has not yet been set in the Estimate/voyage, the system defaults to the LOB specified on the Time Charter In Contract.
...
Adds additional status options to the Voyage Fixture and Estimate, and the manual management of these statuses. (A manually managed Status field is available on the Voyage Fixture, with a default status of On Subs. A voyage can be scheduled from a Voyage Fixture only if its status is Fixed.)

...
Enables the option to default Estimate fuel costs to those of the last saved estimate.
...
On Estimates, defaults ballast port to the vessel open port.
...
Specifies a custom label for the Category selection list field on an Estimate and its reporting dataset. The values in the list can be configured on the Voyage Estimate Categories form, available from the Setup section of the Chartering menu.
...
Changing vessels on an Estimate will map the bunker prices for the first vessel onto the new vessel where appropriate; fuels unavailable on the new vessel will not be available and hence not have prices, and fuels available on the new vessel that are absent from the first vessel will pull their prices from the last voyage prices (unless explicitly disabled with use of config flag CFGUseVesselLastFuelCost), or the last Estimate (if CFGUseVesselLastFuelCost is disabled and CFGUseEstimateLastFuelCost is enabled). On the Estimate Vessel Matrix form, the Preserve Bunker Prices check box is selected by default, but you can change it.
...
On Estimates, sets the default bunker unit.
...
The initial bunker quantities in an estimate will be pulled from the last actual voyage when a vessel is selected.
...
Sets up a hierarchy between Company, LOB, and Trade Area on several forms.
...
When enabled, the previous voyage DWF % (WF % in the Voyage Manager) value is copied to new consecutive voyages and Estimates, and the global default value set by CFGDefaultWeatherFactor is applied only when no previous position is specified for a voyage or Estimate.
...
Automatically assigns a sequential Estimate ID number for each user prefix.
...
Note: Additional licensing is required for Vessel Data Integration.
When enabled, if a user searches for a Vessel in an Estimate that does not already exist in the database, instead of asking the user to create a new Vessel, they will have the option to import from configured external vessel data sources.
...
When enabled, a TC In or Head Fixture will be automatically assigned when selecting a vessel in the Estimate. When disabled, users will have to manually select a TC In/Head Fixture in the Estimate.
...
Users can only save changes to Estimates they create. If a user attempts to save an Estimate created by another user, the action will be blocked, and they will be advised to make a copy of the active Estimate.
...
Any fuel type that is used in the calculation with price zero will trigger a red warning. The profit and daily profit are set to zero to avoid misjudging the calculation.
...
If the quantity of cargo on board exceeds the calculated max lift quantity for an itinerary line, an Estimate error will be raised indicating where the overloading has occurred, and the profit/daily profit for the Estimate will be set to zero. However, if the Estimate is fixed, it does not show zero P&L, and the Estimated P&L in the Voyage Manager is not affected.
...
A nominated discharge quantity greater than the loaded quantity will raise a validation error in the Estimate, Voyage Fixture, and Voyage Manager. Additionally, in the Estimate, this will clear the results of the P&L calculation.
...
Displays a validation warning in the Estimate and Voyage Manager if a cargo handling port call exists without estimated port expenses.
...
If vessel is a tanker or gas carrier, displays a warning if applicable cargo bunker consumption types are not enabled in an estimate or voyage.
...
Adds validation warnings if, at the first port where a cargo is to be loaded, the vessel will arrive before the start or after the end of the cargo's laycan.
- Additionally, on the Voyage List, voyage lines will be highlighted in yellow if the above condition exists.
...
Adds a Deviation button to the Voyage Manager toolbar to launch a Deviation Estimate.
...
Adds a Voyage Expense Allocation section to the Voyage Estimate Profit & Loss Report, and optionally to the Voyage Profit & Loss Report. Note that this requires CFGEnableStandards to also be set to Y.
...
Hides the Port Expense field on some forms, enables standards for expenses, and adds a Port Expenses Details form and a Port Expenses Details button on the Port Expenses Summary to open it. When detail-level port expenses are being used, the PortExp column in the Voyage Itinerary behaves the same as the PortExp column in the Estimate itinerary:
- For a port with no detail-level port expenses, you can edit its PortExp amount in the Voyage Itinerary Cargo Tab. The voyage P&L shows this amount as estimated expenses for that port.
- For a port with a single detail-level expense, that amount appears and can be edited in the voyage itinerary PortExp field. An estimated expense entered before creating the detail-level expense is no longer displayed in the voyage P&L.
- For a port with multiple detail-level expenses, the itinerary PortExp field shows the sum of the detail-level expenses for that port and cannot be edited.
- When CFGVoyageExpenseAllocation is set to Y, a Voyage Expense Allocation section will be added to the Voyage Estimate Profit & Loss Report, and optionally to the Voyage Profit & Loss Report.
An ECA Factor field also appears on COA, Cargo/VC In, and CP Terms Details forms. When ECAFactor is used in an IMOS ECA Recovery Charge Results/Fee expression and an ECA Factor value is entered on a contract, an ECA Recovery Charge Extra Freight Term is generated on that contract.
- When a COA is created from an Estimate, ECA Factor is copied from CP Terms to the COA.
- When a COA Lifting is created, ECA Factor is copied from the COA to the Cargo.
- When a cargo is scheduled, ECA Factor is copied from the cargo to the backcreated Estimate.
...
On the Estimate Properties panel, a Benchmark check box appears. To mark an Estimate as a Benchmark Estimate, select the check box. Benchmark Estimates must have exactly one cargo, and they cannot be fixed.
On COA and Cargo/VC In forms, an Exposure tab appears. If a cargo is linked to a Benchmark Estimate via the Exposure tab, the market rate will be used as the TCE in the Benchmark Estimate and back-calculate the $/ton rate in the Trading Profit and Loss.
...
Syncs the Cargo with the Initial Estimate, as long as there is only one Cargo and one Initial Estimate; if the same Initial Estimate is used for multiple Cargoes, one:many will not be synced when the Initial Estimate is updated.
If the Estimate has two Cargoes linked to it, the Open Contract button on the toolbar is named Contracts and has two options:
- Open Contract opens the first Cargo.
- Open Related Cargoes opens a selection window with all Cargoes that have that Estimate as their Initial Estimate.
When a VC In is set to use a TCOV Benchmark Estimate, the VC In will not be updated when a change is made to the Initial Estimate.
When CFGLockInitialEstimate is also enabled, and there are multiple Cargoes that use the Benchmark Estimate as the Initial Estimate, this flag is ignored: The Estimate can be edited and saved.
...
Locks the initial Benchmark Estimate after the Cargo contract is created. When the Cargo contract is Confirmed, it can be edited, but the corresponding Initial estimate is locked. For all other statuses, the Initial estimate can be edited, but Freight Type and Frt Rate fields on the Cargo cannot. They must be updated from the Initial estimate (applies when CFGSyncCargoWithInitialEstimate is ON).
...
If enabled, the ending year digits are automatically included in the voyage ID.
...
Show fields on Voyage Estimate form and Summary report indicating the necessary freight rate increase required to maintain a constant TCE for a $1 increase (where $ is customer bunker currency) in price for the specified bunker type.
