Clients have the ability to control whether or not Demurrage/Despatch line items will aggregate or list independently in the PDF of the invoice with the Configuration Flag:
CFGDisableItemizedDemOnFinalStatement
There may be times when Demurrage/Despatch is linked to a Freight Invoice, and this flag is configured not to aggregate line items in the invoice (i.e., the flag is set to a value of 'N'), yet the Veson IMOS Platform lists them together anyways with the verbiage:
”Demurrage/Despatch for all ports combined”
To correct this issue, follow the steps listed below.
Example Instructions
-
Navigate to Data Center > Settings > CFGDisableItemizedDemOnFinalStatement > Open the flag and ensure the value is set to 'N' > Click OK/Save
-
Open Freight Invoice > Right-click and delete the afflicted Demurrage/Despatch line item > Save the Freight Invoice
-
Create a new Laytime Calculation for the port > Set to statuses to ‘Actual' and ‘Settled’.
-
Reopen the Freight Invoice > Click the "Add Details" button in the taskbar > Check the box for the new invoice > Click Ok
-
Save the invoice. Click the Invoice button on the taskbar and you should now see the correct formatting (i.e., it will no longer read "Demurrage for all ports combined")
-
If necessary, reverse and delete the previous and afflicted laytime invoice.
