These controls and field display Fuel Types and consumption categories specified as applicable to the particular Vessel Type (for Veslink only) or IMOS Vessel.

The Bunkers ROB control is a grid with information for each Fuel Type applicable to the particular vessel. For each Fuel Type, the control displays the Last ROB amount and the Unit of measure. The ROB control can capture ROBs by sulfur content within a particular Fuel Type. It can also capture auxiliary-engine fuel consumption separately from main-engine fuel consumption.

...

The Bunker Consumptions control captures total volume as well as the Time (hrs) used within each consumption category, which can assist with performance reporting. For example, in the IMOS Report Designer, you can create a Bunker Consumption Breakdown report that shows daily bunker consumption broken down by category and Fuel Type.

  2. Click  to expand any of the following sections, click add to add a row, and then complete the fields.

    • Customize Consumption Control: For the Bunker Consumptions control only.
      Note: Changes made in this section override those made in the Customize Bunker ROB Control section. In the Bunker Consumptions control, consumption categories and engines will appear in the same order as they are entered.

      • Category Name: Consumption category or engine name.

      • Tooltip: Text to appear when the mouse pointer is held over the Category Name in the Bunker Consumptions control.

      • Engine: If the Category Name and Tooltip are for an engine, select this check box. If they are for a consumption category, clear this check box (default).

    • Customize Bunker ROB Control: For the Bunkers ROB and Bunker Consumptions controls.

The Bunker Tanks table uses the master data from IMOS Vessel details to populate the tank information, allowing vessel-side users to submit volume and ROB data. This data is not imported into Operations and can only be used for reporting via the API or IMOS Report Designer.

...

The Port Activity control enables you to update Date From, Time, and Remarks for all Port Activities in IMOS (instead of for an individual activity using the Port Activity element type).

...

  • Activity: A list of activities from the database, as established in IMOS, or from a Voyage Template. Because Port Activities tend to be repetitive from port call to port call, default Port Activity lists can be established that will automatically populate the Port Activity control. The lists can be based either on Port Function (loading, discharging, etc.) or on a particular combination of Port Function and Voyage Template. This would allow, for example, more than one default list of Port Activities to be defined for loading, each applicable to a certain type of vessel or voyage. The Port Activity control also checks to ensure that no more than one Port Activity of type PS (port start) has been entered.
    When completing the Port Activity control, to supplement the default lists of Port Activities, select from the list other activities to cover any deviations from the standard ones and delete any activities that did not occur; activities left blank when the form is submitted are not recorded.
    As part of the Port Activity setup in IMOS, the activity (or activities) that mark the start and end of cargo operations can be indicated; these are coded OS and OE, respectively. (This information is needed for the IMOS Demurrage calculation.) The Veslink Port Activity control validates that each OS activity entered is balanced by a corresponding OE activity and, if not, issues an error message.
    The way the list of Port Activities appears defaults either from the template or from previous edits to the Port Activities in the port.

  • Cargo: Either the cargo, if there is only one, or a selection list of cargoes being loaded or discharged by this ship in this port. The list includes columns for Cargo Type, BL Code, BL Date, and BL Quantity. This field is only active for Port Activities having Port Activity Type OS (cargo Operation Start) or OE (cargo Operation End).

  • Charterer: For Port Activities with Charterer selected in the IMOS Data Center, you can select a Charterer.

  • Remarks: A line of free-form text.

  • Date/Time: A standard Date/Time control. The date component has a calendar control. Each date and time can be selected, but when the time is completed for a row, if the date in that row is blank, it is copied from the last nonblank row above it (in case the activity in the previous row was skipped). After entering an initial date, most of the Port Activity control can be completed by just entering times.

...

  • Port Activity: Select a single Port Activity.

  • Berth: Select from all Port Activities that have their Berth column selected and Cargo column cleared in the IMOS Data Center. If a Port Activity Template exists, only those activities defined in the template are available.

  • Cargo: Select from all Port Activities that have their Cargo column selected in the IMOS Data Center. If a Port Activity Template exists, only those activities defined in the template are available.

  • ROBs for each Fuel Type for each Activity: With Track Event ROBs selected for the Form Group, click Show ROBs on the bottom of the Port Activity control.

Note: When setting up Port Activities in the IMOS Data Center, at least one Delay End (DE) activity must Pair With a Delay Start (DS) activity Code.

The Delay Events table enables you to update Date FromTime, and Remarks for paired Delay Start (DS) and Delay End (DE) Port Activities in IMOS.

...

It includes the following columns:

  • Delay Start Type: Select from a list of DS Port Activities that are paired with DE activities.

  • Delay Start Time: Updates Date From on the DS Port Activity line.

  • Delay End Time: Updates Date From on the DE Port Activity line.

  • Remarks: Updates Remarks on the DS Port Activity line.

When added to a custom form, the Berth Name field automatically populates based on the Berth column on the Voyage Manager BL Info tab.
