IMOS On-Prem - Voyage Manager

The Voyage Manager is the central point for managing a voyage in IMOS. It is the endpoint from a Voyage Estimate or Voyage Fixture and the beginning point of voyage accounting, that is, invoice creation.

• Charterers can use the Voyage Manager to view forecasted voyages and review or update contract terms and to compare the actual P&L of completed voyages to their Estimates.

• Operators can use the Voyage Manager to find, record, and adjust all the data for a voyage in one place:

  • View the original contract terms

  • Manage the voyage itinerary

  • Record Cargo Bill of Lading data

  • Record delays

  • Create Laytime Calculations

  • Review/record bunker consumption

  • Create AP/AR invoices

  • Create/execute tasks

  • Create Voyage Instructions

  • Generate Performance Reports

• Accounting users can use the Voyage Manager to view and manage invoices and the voyage P&L.

• The Voyage Manager has tabs along the bottom for viewing/managing the voyage from different perspectives: Estimate, Operations, Invoices, Profit & Loss, Contacts, Notes, Revisions, and Instructions. It opens with the Operations tab active.

• To view the itinerary on the map in Veslink Distances, below the Itinerary, click
