IMOS On-Prem - Voyage Estimate, Column View

Voyage Estimate Column view gives you the ability to create multiple scenarios and compare them side by side, as well as combining Estimates to create one voyage and performing Deviation and Sensitivity Analyses. Use Column view when you want a quick snapshot, and if you have a simple voyage with one load port, one discharge port, and one cargo.

You can open an Estimate, copy it, and make adjustments to the copy, such as trying a different vessel, route, or charterer, while comparing the Daily Profit and the TCE to determine the most profitable voyage.
With multiple Voyage Estimates open, you can click << Hide at the bottom of an Estimate to collapse it (center, above) and >> to expand it again.
To move an Estimate column to the right or left, click a field in the column you want to move and then press Ctrl + Right Arrow or Ctrl + Left Arrow.
Either the Tasks & Alerts or Revisions panel appears at the top right corner of each Estimate column. To expand or collapse the panel, click the arrow. Colored arrows indicate Alerts: A red arrow indicates an Error, and a yellow arrow indicates a Warning.
- To select what you want to view, click and then click one of the following:
  - Show Tasks & Alerts: View the Tasks & Alerts panel, which displays the Tasks and Alerts that apply to the contract. The heading bar includes the icon for the most urgent Alert or Task. If none are urgent, the task that is in progress appears.
  - Show Revisions: View the Revisions panel, which displays a chronological list of changes to the Voyage Estimate. You can also click Revision History to view the same information in a list.
In each Voyage Estimate, you must enter at least the Vessel Name to save.
When you select a port, the Itinerary Details form appears, so you can enter additional information about the itinerary. In Details view, you can open it from a context menu from a port line in the Itinerary grid on most tabs.
If you add planned liftings to the Bunker Planning form with Calculation Method FIFO, price fields for associated Fuel Types highlight in yellow. To view the Weighted Average price of all Fuel Types and details about all Planned Liftings for the voyage, hover over a highlighted field.

Name/Flag	Description

Name/Flag	Description
Show Load Quantity in Estimate Column CFGShowLoadQuantityInEstColumn	When CFGShowLoadQuantityInEstColumn is enabled, the estimate column view will display the total load quantity. The existing field "Quantity/Unit" has been renamed to "CP Quantity/Unit."
Scenario Select in Voyage Estimate CFGScenarioSelectInVoyest	Adds a Program field to the Voyage Estimate so you can assign the Estimate to a program in the Estimate Schedule.
Enable Voyage Estimate TCE APS CFGEnableVoyestTceAps	Adds an APS TCE (Arrival at Pilot Station TCE) field to the P&L Summary for OVOV and TCOV voyage types. APS TCE uses the same calculation as the TCE field, but with the following ballast costs removed: All bunker expenses incurred before arrival at the first Load Port All port expenses and tolls at any port prior to the first Load Port, including Other Revenues and Expenses that are linked to those ports To use APS TCE, CFGEnableVoyestTceDeviation must be disabled.
Recalc Distances on Estimate Copy CFGRecalcDistancesOnEstimateCopy	When copying a Voyage Estimate, if the Distances information in the Voyage Estimate does not match the current Distance calculation, then this information, along with low sulfur distances and Fuel Zone information (if enabled), will be updated in the Voyage Estimate copy.
Voyage Expense Allocation CFGVoyageExpenseAllocation	Adds a Voyage Expense Allocation section to the Voyage Estimate Profit & Loss Report, and optionally to the Voyage Profit & Loss Report. Note that this requires CFGEnableStandards to also be set to Y.
Enable Standards CFGEnableStandards	Hides the Port Expense field on some forms, enables standards for expenses, and adds a Port Expenses Details form and a Port Expenses Details button on the Port Expenses Summary to open it. When detail-level port expenses are being used, the PortExp column in the Voyage Manager Itinerary behaves the same as the PortExp column in the Voyage Estimate itinerary: For a port with no detail-level port expenses, you can edit its PortExp amount in the Voyage Manager Itinerary Cargo Tab. The voyage P&L shows this amount as estimated expenses for that port. For a port with a single detail-level expense, that amount appears and can be edited in the voyage itinerary PortExp field. An estimated expense entered before creating the detail-level expense is no longer displayed in the voyage P&L. For a port with multiple detail-level expenses, the itinerary PortExp field shows the sum of the detail-level expenses for that port and cannot be edited. When CFGVoyageExpenseAllocation is set to Y, a Voyage Expense Allocation section will be added to the Voyage Estimate Profit & Loss Report, and optionally to the Voyage Profit & Loss Report. An ECA Factor field also appears on COA, Cargo/VC In, and CP Terms Details forms. When ECAFactor is used in an ECA Recovery Charge Results/Fee expression and an ECA Factor value is entered on a contract, an ECA Recovery Charge Extra Freight Term is generated on that contract. When a COA is created from a Voyage Estimate, ECA Factor is copied from CP Terms to the COA. When a COA Lifting is created, ECA Factor is copied from the COA to the Cargo. When a cargo is scheduled, ECA Factor is copied from the cargo to the back-created Voyage Estimate.
Enable Vessel Import from Estimate CFGEnableVesselImportFromEstimate	Note: Additional licensing is required for Vessel Data Integration. When enabled, if a user searches for a Vessel in a Voyage Estimate that does not already exist in the database, instead of asking the user to create a new Vessel, they will have the option to import from configured external vessel data sources.
Default TCI on Estimate Vessel Select CFGDefaultTCIOnEstimateVesselSelect	When enabled, a TC In or Head Fixture will be automatically assigned when selecting a vessel in the Voyage Estimate. When disabled, users will have to manually select a TC In/Head Fixture in the Voyage Estimate.
Enable Voyage Estimate TCE Profit Share CFGEnableVoyestTceProfitShare	When enabled, PShare %/TCE fields appear on the Voyage Estimate column view. Additionally, when CFGUseMultiOwners is enabled, a Profit Share % field appears on the Owner Information form.
Voyage ID Includes Date CFGVoyIdIncludesDate	If enabled, the ending year digits are automatically included in the voyage ID.
Use Multi Owners CFGUseMultiOwners	Enables you to assign multiple owners to a vessel. To open the Owner Information form, click on the Vessel toolbar.
Manually Lock Estimates CFGManuallyLockEstimates	When enabled, users with the Lock An Estimate or Unlock An Estimate Module Rights can manually lock or unlock estimates. Locked estimates cannot be edited. In the Report Designer, the locking status of an estimate can be reported on using the Voyage Estimate > Is Locked field.
