Accessing Cargoes & Fixtures
To get to Cargoes & Fixtures, go to the main position update page. Select the down arrow next to Positions on the upper left of the page.
...
Note: the ‘Source’ column notes the entry type: Public or Private.
...
The dash icon means the source is private (yours), and the triangle means it is a public fixture.
...
Public fixtures cannot be deleted but can be edited. If a public fixture is edited, the edited row is saved as a private fixture. The data that was initially public is what the other firms will see. The F key shortcut (Add a fixture) and the E key shortcut (Export) work in the Cargo and Fixture view. Public data flows in automatically daily by our subcontractor.
