IMOS - Delay Types
Delay Types terms are used on the Estimate Delays and Delay forms as Activities.
You can define other Delay Types to add more granularity in reporting and select them on the Delay Reasons form.
On the Data Center menu …, under Delays and Weather, click Delay Types.
Note:
The descriptions OFF HIRE, OFF HIRE REVERSE, WAITING, and PLANNED OFF HIRE must be entered in this specific format.
Normal Delay Types do not affect TCE; only PLANNED OFF HIRE does, with Performance Calculation Time Does Not Count.
Although you can add more delay types to the existing list, the descriptions OFF HIRE, OFF HIRE REVERSE, and PLANNED OFF HIRE are the only delay activity types that impact the P&L and TC contract.
Forecasting
PLANNED OFFHIRE used for forecasting is not included in the TC Bill.
Settling Offhire on the Invoice
If the discounted hire is not already part of the TC bill and needs to be settled on the hire invoice, we recommend creating a Delay Type for regular Offhire called Planned Offhire (or Planned Maintenance) so it can be included when the TC Bill is generated. Before invoicing, change the type to OFF HIRE to pull information into invoices.
Note: The Test delay type does not appear in the Off Hire tab of the TC contract.
