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.
STBL stands for: Ship To Be Lightered.
Create Lightering Support Contracts for STBLs, composed of Lightering Support Jobs for Lightering Support Vessels.
Note: Lightering Support Job creation is not currently supported.

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.
