Confirm that all your vessels were set up correctly during installation, and update them as your company's fleet changes.

Creating a Vessel

To create a vessel, do one of the following:

In the Data Center , click Vessel.
On the Vessel List, click and then click New Vessel.
To import or update a vessel based on external data feeds, see Vessel Data Integration (requires valid licensing).

Complete at least the following required fields:

Vessel Code (4-6 characters)
Type Code
Speed Laden
Speed Ballast
Vessel Name
Vessel Type
Note: The ability to create Type L (LNG) vessels requires the LNG module.
Vessel DWT

Information appears on the following tabs:

Consumption
LNG: For Type L vessels; requires the LNG module
Routes
DWT/Draft
Details
Stowage
Contacts
Multiple Rates
L/D Performance
Properties: If User-Defined Fields are set up in the Data Center
Bunker Tanks
Tugs: Requires the Barging module
TCE Target
Vetting: If configuration flag CFGEnableVettingWorkflow is enabled

Complete the remaining fields on the form as appropriate.

Inactive Vessel: If you have the Create Inactive Vessel Records Module Right selected, under Actions in the Data Center, this check box is selected by default for vessels you create. To activate a vessel, you must have the Module Right cleared.
Use Scrubbers: When the Use Scrubbers check box is selected, low sulfur bunkers are not used for at-sea consumption within ECA zones. Instead, high sulfur ("H"-type in the Vessel) bunkers is consumed. In-port consumption still adheres to Vessel/FuelZone bunker configuration if a given port is within an ECA zone.
Alerts: This field can be used to capture issues; the Vessel field is highlighted in light red on several forms after an Alert is entered for it. An Alerts column can also be selected to appear in the Vessel List.
Fuel Zone Set: You can specify a fuel zone set to be used as a default by the vessel when creating estimates or voyages. If the field is not filled out, the vessel will automatically use the global default fuel zone set as defined in Fuel Zones.

The Summary Tree is at the right; when a vessel has been used in a voyage, it summarizes and provides access to important forms and related information. You can attach and access documents or links.

Copying a Vessel

To copy a vessel:

On the toolbar of the Vessel form, click . All vessel data is copied to a new Vessel form, but voyage data is not copied, and the Estimate Only Vessel and Inactive Vessel check boxes are cleared.
Complete the Vessel Code and Vessel Name fields.
Click to save the new vessel.

Vessel List

All Vessels appear on the Vessel List. In the Data Center , next to Vessel, click List.

The Vessel List is a standard IMOS list, so you can sort it, filter it, do a Quick Search, and create custom Views for it.

You can also search for a vessel: Enter a full or partial Vessel Name and an Ownership Type (or All) and then press Search. To clear the search criteria, click Reset.
