Setup

Set up lightering-specific records to be used in lightering contracts and reporting:

In Chartering, manage lightering contracts:

Create Master Lightering Contracts (Sale or Purchase) for Ships to Be Lightered (STBLs), composed of Lightering Jobs for Lightering Service Vessels.
Create Lightering Support Contracts for STBLs, composed of Lightering Support Jobs for Lightering Support Vessels.

In Operations, manage lightering voyages:

When you save a Lightering Job, a Voyage Fixture is automatically created. You can then create the voyage and manage it in the Voyage Manager.
Note: Lightering Support Job voyage management is not currently supported.
On Master Lightering Contracts, update the ETA of the STBL on Nomination days.

In Financials, close lightering voyages.
