Bunkering supports alternate workflows, depending on organizational needs, individual preferences, and situational variations. The following workflows assume that bunker requirements are generated by vessel operators; they can be processed by a specialized Bunker Department. At a high level, bunker workflow options include the following:

• Work with or without a specialized Bunker Department.

• Use Bunker Alerts to coordinate Operations and Bunker Desk work processes.

• Create a Bunker Requirement, then Bunker Inquiries, then a Purchase Order, then an Invoice.

• Create a Bunker Purchase from scratch before entering a Requirement or operational quantities, and manually bind the invoice to the physical liftings.

• Create a Bunker Invoice from scratch before entering a Requirement, a Purchase, or operational quantities, and manually bind the invoice to the physical liftings.

• Optionally capture details for each fuel type lifted, including benchmark prices, cancellation fees, test requirements and results, and claim information.
