Bunker Requirement List
The Bunker Requirement List is the primary work list in IMOS for processing Bunker Requirements. Requirements can be entered by Operators or come from vessels through Veslink forms. The list shows all of them in one place, so you can see the bunkers needed for upcoming voyage itineraries.
-
On the main menu
-
On the Operations menu …, under Bunkers, next to Bunker Requirement, select List.
-
In the Operations quick links, select
Rows are highlighted according to the Operations Lists Settings:
-
Yellow = Requirements within the Bunker Warning Days
-
Red = Requirements within the Bunker Alert Days
-
As with any other list, you can search, select, adjust, pin, filter, group, and sort columns, reset to the default view, save user views, and export.
-
-
By default, the following filters are applied, but you can change them:
-
Request Date is on or after 90 days in the past
-
Request Status is not Cancelled
-
Bunker Manager
You can use this list to see the bunkers needed for upcoming voyage itineraries.
To create a work list, create a view that has the columns you want to see and exclude other bunker managers, so you see only your own work.
To have the most critical requirements appear at the top of the list, sort by the ETA column or the Window From column. You can open a voyage to find other information.
Operator or Vessel
You can use the Bunker Requirement List to check on the status of a Bunker Requirement.
Bunker Requirement
If CFGPreserveBunkerRequirementsOnVoyageDelete is enabled, deleting a voyage opens a dialog where you choose to keep and unlink, or delete, each of the voyage’s Bunker Requirements. See CFGPreserveBunkerRequirementsOnVoyageDelete.
The Bunker Requirement communicates request information from the Operator to the Bunker Manager.
Security Module Rights for the Bunker Requirements form differentiate between Operator and Bunker Manager responsibilities by enabling editing of the appropriate fields.
To view an existing Bunker Requirement, on the Bunker Requirement List, select its row or Requirement ID link.
Request Status, Requested By, Procurement Status, Bunker Manager, and Request Note fields are avaialble only if your organization has the Bunkering module.
To create a new Bunker Requirement, do one of the following:
-
From the Voyage Manager:
-
Click on Bunkers and select Voyage Bunkers:
-
On the Voyage Bunkers form, click New Requirement.
-
-
On a bunker type-specific detail tab, right-click a port call and then click New Bunker Requirement.
-
-
-
-
From the Bunkers, Port/Date, or Consumption tab of the Itinerary, right-click on the port line, hover over Bunker Requirements, and then click New Bunker Requirement.
-
On the Operations menu …, click on the Bunker Requirement List, and click on +.
-
On the Operations menu …, Bunker Purchase List or Bunker Lifting List, click on + and then click New Bunker Requirement.
-
On the Operations menu …, under Operations, click on Bunker-List.
Note: It is possible to have multiple Bunker Requirements per port call.
Request Status, Requested By, Procurement Status, Bunker Manager, and Request Note fields are only available to clients with the Bunkering module.
-
As with any other details view, you can navigate to a different record by clicking its card or return to the list by clicking its Name.
-
If a port call with a Bunker Requirement is changed, the Bunker Requirement remains linked to the new port call, but if the Bunker Alert List is enabled, it has a Bunker Requirement Alert. If the port call is deleted, the Bunker Requirement is unlinked after the voyage is saved and shows as unlinked in the Bunker Requirement List. An unlinked Bunker Requirement can be linked to a different port call or canceled.
-
If there is an existing lifting at the Port, in the Planned Liftings grid, editing Req Qty automatically adjusts Opr Qty by the same amount. When this happens, the Opr Qty field is highlighted and a tooltip explains the difference in value between the two fields.
-
The selection of vendors in the Agent field is limited to the nominated agents specified for the port call.
Voyage Reporting provides a different form for entering bunker requirements.
Port Expenses
When you enter port expenses on the Bunker Requirement form, they contribute to the Total cost of a given bunker lifting, which is reflected in the Bunker Details Report.
