VIP - MRV Reporting - Event ROBs Control

Collecting MRV Data with the Event ROBs Control

The Event ROBs control records ROBs for specific events and time frames. If you are looking to generate consumption category and berth event breakdowns, use this method. Collecting data via the Event ROBs control maps Event Types (also known as Reasons) to the Leg Delays/Events form, which then enables MRV reporting.

Configuration

In order to start using this control, ensure the following: 

1. In the Form Designer, add the Event ROBs control to your form.
2. Edit the Event Types by editing the Observed Distance element. Go to Custom Data Source and then add Berth Events as a comma-separated list.
   Example: Loading,Discharging,Idle In Port (Load/Disch/Bunkering),Stoppage for Safety Reasons,Reduction for Safety Reasons,Owners Matters,Charterers Request,Canal/Strait Transit,Shifting to Berth/Anchorage
3. Ensure that the Event Types added in the Veslink configuration are also added to the Delay Reasons form.
   • Ensure that the following Berth Events are added to both areas:
     • Shifting to Berth
     • Shifting to Anchorage
     • From Last Berth to Sea/Anchor
   The values from the Event ROBs control are imported into the Veslink IMOS Platform and, if the activities on the Leg Delays/Events form match the Event ROBs Event Types, the values are captured in Leg Delays/Events (or Berth Events).
